VIDEO:

This video shows the appropriate use of red as a brand. I found this video similar to the colour theory class last semester. It tells you what is its complimentary colour, what words the colour red says to the audience, a range of brands that use the colour red, A quiz of questions relating to red branding and a range of businesses or products that have the word 'red' in its name.


Its Red-iculous! 

OVER AND OUT!
