S3E10 Pantone - The PMS we actually like

Once upon a time, chaos ruled the world, and "color matching" was based solely on the discretion of whoever was creating the ink or dye for that product. Can you even imagine?! In this episode we give credit where credit is due: Pantone wins the award for being the most useful (though sometimes annoying) tool for those of us working in the visual arts. We talk about the creation of the Pantone Matching System (our preferred PMS), the various guides they have and what they're used for, how we use those guides for letterpress, and of course... our personal opinions on the newly announced color of the year, as well as this whole dang system in general.  Laugh along with us, then hop on over to instagram to tell us how YOU prefer to mix ink!!  Are you a "by the formula" kind of person, or do you mix by eye?  All those who share their preference will be entered to win a color-chip inspired ornament made by Jillian!
