Triad Harmony



**Definition:** Three colors seen together to produce a pleasing affective response are said to be in harmony. For example, blue, yellow, and red. Inside the color wheel, there is an equilateral triangle formed, to determine the three colors.


 * Picture Example: **

The Superman Logo is composed of the colors blue, red, and yellow, which shows the triad harmony. The unity of the three colors creates an atmosphere that symbolizes unity and it makes the viewers feel that they are in harmony with Superman. **

Example from a Film: **

In this film called //Fantasia//, the mickey mouse is drawn with color red and blue, and the broom which always accompanies Mickey Mouse, is yellow. These three colors are colors that help the audience illustrate and capture the scene with unity. The Mickey Mouse is a symbol of peace, laughter, however, the audience should notice that the evils are never portrayed as bright colors. For example, the Penguin in Batman, uses dark colors such as dark blue, black, and pale white which does not give a pleasant feeling to the audience. Also, these colors are not a triad harmony. Therefore, Fantasia gives hopes and dreams to children by using triad harmony colors that brings unity to emotions.
 * Fantasia (November 13, 1940)**
