that. 23 00:03:16.260 --> 00:03:29.370 Vanessa Peterson: yeah so my team specifically works with consumer products and electronic materials so that means that we basically work with all the big tech giants globally and that now trickles down into. 24 00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:39.840 Vanessa Peterson: home appliances cookware and bake where, but our biggest customers, as I mentioned, are global tech company, so we work with everyone from Google. 25 00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:49.140 Vanessa Peterson: To Dell HP to Microsoft Amazon so forth, and so on, so it's a really interesting job that we get to do and it's really. 26 00:03:49.980 --> 00:03:57.930 Vanessa Peterson: it's really an innovative job to be able to work with these powerhouses to help them come up with the color direction for their products so. 27 00:03:58.410 --> 00:04:08.940 Vanessa Peterson: All of that to say I would love to hand it over to my team Member Derek Williams, who is going to walk you all through our horizons presentation, thank you all. 28 00:04:11.010 --> 00:04:15.570 U155597: So hi guys, my name is Jared Williams senior color stylist here at. 29 00:04:16.710 --> 00:04:25.590 U155597: The PPT color styling studio in North America managed under Vanessa peterson a little bit about me, as I mentioned earlier, I am arts and our alumni. 30 00:04:26.250 --> 00:04:33.990 U155597: So it's always super excited and come back and talk to you guys about coloring design feels like coming back home So yes, can be fun. 31 00:04:34.890 --> 00:04:45.540 U155597: So briefly i'll just go into how we come up with our colors and trends, each year, so globally all of our business units come together. 32 00:04:46.140 --> 00:05:08.820 U155597: which would include aerospace architecture automotive and ourselves consumer products we all get together and we present color trends based off of what we learned from just on our own, and then collectively will come up with three themes and the color of the year. 33 00:05:13.500 --> 00:05:25.020 U155597: And so late yeah perfect alright, so this is our team so North America managed under Vanessa we have summer sager senior lab lead myself. 34 00:05:25.440 --> 00:05:43.020 U155597: And our two newest silas Charlie i'm a young, is also an art Center alumni recently graduated not too long ago, and we have our Asia Pacific team managed under square so collectively these these two teams and created the the colors and finishes that you're going to see today. 35 00:05:46.320 --> 00:05:52.170 U155597: And so, with that present you are our theme which is horizon. 36 00:05:53.190 --> 00:05:54.660 U155597: So horizons all about. 37 00:05:57.300 --> 00:06:06.270 U155597: You know people feel they need optimism they're they're looking out the horizon for something beautiful manifests itself right that's that's the whole meaning behind them. 38 00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:20.970 U155597: horizon and we also have our color of the year, which has all the spring, which is a beautiful neutral green it's a new neutral tonight, like a nice natural green color. 39 00:06:25.080 --> 00:06:26.190 U155597: So here, you could see. 40 00:06:27.690 --> 00:06:34.530 U155597: That it's in us across all our business units from consumer products your motives architecture. 41 00:06:35.340 --> 00:06:46.800 U155597: It ties in really nicely with with all those and we're very conscious of that when we pick our color of the year, we want to make sure that it fits with all all of our business units and that they can only use it. 42 00:06:48.510 --> 00:06:49.290 U155597: To the best they can. 43 00:06:51.300 --> 00:06:56.430 U155597: And so kind of going into more of how we come up with our. 44 00:06:58.530 --> 00:07:00.660 U155597: trends and how we kind of research. 45 00:07:01.890 --> 00:07:11.730 U155597: We tend to break things up into four macro trends right, so we look at we look at history, you know what what's kind of aesthetically coming back. 46 00:07:12.570 --> 00:07:24.750 U155597: from the past and kind of coming into now, we look at the society there's something later, yes, we look at what what people are thinking what you know what's the overall mood. 47 00:07:25.860 --> 00:07:27.090 U155597: You know, socially. 48 00:07:29.400 --> 00:07:43.800 U155597: And then of course optimism, we always try to you know make make our colors fun and exciting and an optimistic right So these are kind of the four macro trends that ultimately become our three trends. 49 00:07:45.690 --> 00:07:49.950 U155597: And so, here they are so we have introspective inspired and invaluable. 50 00:07:55.080 --> 00:08:07.470 U155597: And then so we're going to play a brief video that kind of goes over our three trends and then after the video stops will i'll discuss i'll go more into the trends and how we come up with the finish. 51 00:09:01.980 --> 00:09:02.580 know where. 52 00:11:21.690 --> 00:11:26.190 U155597: Okay, that was the smoothest rendition of our video so far, so that was awesome. 53 00:11:26.760 --> 00:11:34.350 U155597: um, so this is our first category and introspective so we call this because, in order to change the world around you have to look inward first right. 54 00:11:34.830 --> 00:11:40.950 U155597: we've seen in the past two years, a lot of people reevaluated the way their lives, the way they connect with people. 55 00:11:41.850 --> 00:11:50.460 U155597: And just their their mental and physical health they've been really conscious about so that's kind of what this category is all about, but that's what the colors kind of reflect. 56 00:11:52.770 --> 00:11:53.940 U155597: So in design. 57 00:11:55.020 --> 00:12:04.020 U155597: You know, we see a lot of these kind of warm warm cozy neutrals and these kind of like softer more comforting rounded. 58 00:12:06.030 --> 00:12:12.240 U155597: furniture right that's that's kind of it brings comfort and it's supposed to be. 59 00:12:13.560 --> 00:12:14.640 U155597: comforting and welcoming. 60 00:12:17.760 --> 00:12:29.880 U155597: And then, this is the architectural palette including all a sprig i'm going to mention this just first and so i'm not repeating myself but i'm so the architectural palette their. 61 00:12:30.450 --> 00:12:38.370 U155597: Their honed into these colors these colors already exists for P P G so when we're coming up with our friends and our colors a year. 62 00:12:38.880 --> 00:12:46.560 U155597: we're conscious of that, and you know, since architecture needs to needs to mark the market these to the consumers, they have to be appealing. 63 00:12:46.980 --> 00:12:57.600 U155597: In architectural space we're fortunate enough on our team to kind of play up the colors with different effects and different finishes. 64 00:12:58.560 --> 00:13:07.020 U155597: But the colors on their own just have to have to look nice so yeah, as I mentioned so yeah so we get to play with these fun metallics. 65 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:14.520 U155597: fresh start there on the bottom has a has a really cool expect with metallic finish to it and it's kind of fun and play for. 66 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:27.810 U155597: footprints on the tops almost like as if you're stepping on a wet sand on the beach and so again like these colors overall just supposed to be very, very cozy calming soothing and welcoming. 67 00:13:31.530 --> 00:13:33.660 U155597: second category here's inspire. 68 00:13:35.910 --> 00:13:48.240 U155597: inspire it's all about exploring the new digital age, embracing technology, rather than shying away from it, so when we connect with people through school right right now the words or daily lives. 69 00:13:51.150 --> 00:13:51.600 and 70 00:13:53.760 --> 00:14:12.180 U155597: And then again from a design standpoint it's kind of taking the you know these buzzwords augmented reality virtual reality and kind of bringing them into our actual reality and kind of like how it's how those those kind of blend in the one so kind of see that here. 71 00:14:13.380 --> 00:14:18.720 U155597: And a lot of fun like break exciting colors to it, so this is a very we have a lot of fun. 72 00:14:19.800 --> 00:14:24.240 U155597: exploring the the limitations of what of what we do. 73 00:14:25.830 --> 00:14:36.150 U155597: With the what this palette really, really making some bright shiny metallics, as you can see in this animation and you can see, for those that are in person. 74 00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:42.720 U155597: colors like some snaps us and timewarp have a really nice travel to it. 75 00:14:44.190 --> 00:14:47.580 U155597: So travels kind of the way the light is hitting. 76 00:14:48.930 --> 00:14:53.670 U155597: The substrate when you move in right, so I have a light kind of goes through the the panel. 77 00:14:54.270 --> 00:15:06.900 U155597: So you can kind of see that travels really fast and we're very conscious of that when we're making the collar you know we do that on purpose when we're spraying it when making sure the metallics lay down on on the panel nicely so that. 78 00:15:08.280 --> 00:15:13.800 U155597: You know, when you move it in the light that it's really showing off as really bright beautiful metallics. 79 00:15:14.850 --> 00:15:19.260 U155597: You can see a really nice crisp a way, and then a really dark slow. 80 00:15:21.840 --> 00:15:39.030 U155597: And then yeah So there we go perfect and our last theme is invaluable so invaluable is all about style just reconnecting with family and kind of reconnecting with the family, traditions and discovering what was all that kind of repurchasing in bringing into the new. 81 00:15:44.010 --> 00:15:56.040 U155597: And so, this category is all about like kind of kind of what I was mentioning earlier on macro trends it's it's kind of taking all design elements and bringing it into the present. 82 00:15:57.420 --> 00:15:58.980 U155597: Like in contemporary design. 83 00:16:03.660 --> 00:16:05.400 U155597: And again, this is the architectural palette. 84 00:16:07.170 --> 00:16:20.910 U155597: So, really, really kind of nostalgic vintage looking colors vintage since one of our color names just really high gloss like deep green age silver on the. 85 00:16:22.110 --> 00:16:23.220 U155597: left. 86 00:16:24.540 --> 00:16:36.120 U155597: was made to look, just like ah silver we use the acetone and the spray gun and kind of turned down the pressure so that it kind of spat out onto the paint and kind of. 87 00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:41.160 U155597: Just naturally kind of eat away at the pan and made it look each. 88 00:16:43.830 --> 00:17:02.760 U155597: And then sentimental there on the bottoms of really nice high gloss rules thing so again like looking at these colors it's almost like if you if you were going to a thrift store or if you've added grandparents home, this is kind of the color palette that you would see. 89 00:17:04.740 --> 00:17:08.010 U155597: So it's kind of supposed to feel like that sounds good. 90 00:17:09.060 --> 00:17:12.420 U155597: And then yeah Here are three three palettes for three themes. 91 00:17:14.370 --> 00:17:14.940 U155597: So. 92 00:17:14.970 --> 00:17:18.690 U155597: There is, that is, the rest of the presentation, thank you. 93 00:17:20.670 --> 00:17:28.680 Marshall Hamachi: Thank you Jared I want to just respond for those here at art Center the. 94 00:17:29.820 --> 00:17:33.210 Marshall Hamachi: The although we're in digital age or needing to do things over zoom. 95 00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:41.670 Marshall Hamachi: The Sim tell has a box kit of the of the different panels that Jared has just gone through. 96 00:17:42.180 --> 00:17:55.680 Marshall Hamachi: And I encourage you, if you are wanting to specify coatings or even get a sense of what travel means as Jared described it to please come into some tell and browse the panels because. 97 00:17:56.100 --> 00:18:05.940 Marshall Hamachi: is totally different experience when you're in person to look at the level of detail the green field, the finished, some of the panels have a soft. 98 00:18:06.330 --> 00:18:14.160 Marshall Hamachi: touch coding to it and it's remarkable the effect that it has been you interact with them so for those students, especially dust were designed. 99 00:18:14.550 --> 00:18:24.420 Marshall Hamachi: If you're interested, please come by and we do have it, as well as several copies of the book that was published for the horizon presentation and you can look at that as well. 100 00:18:28.140 --> 00:18:37.860 Vanessa Peterson: So at this time, we would love to open it up to any conversation any discussion or any questions that you guys might have in regards to. 101 00:18:38.700 --> 00:18:51.330 Vanessa Peterson: paint or coding capabilities, maybe our interaction with cms designers maybe what's happening in the industry, as far as trends so yeah if anyone has any questions, we would love to take your questions at this time. 102 00:18:52.710 --> 00:18:54.120 Marshall Hamachi: Before before. 103 00:18:54.390 --> 00:18:54.960 Jensen. 104 00:18:56.250 --> 00:19:03.600 Marshall Hamachi: So there's a number of people on this zoom call and I can't see everyone okay so. 105 00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:12.360 Marshall Hamachi: I would prefer if you could actually put your question in the chat and that way we can kind of track everything, and that would be very helpful okay. 106 00:19:20.460 --> 00:19:23.400 Marshall Hamachi: Okay, so the first question for justin Parish. 107 00:19:25.590 --> 00:19:29.610 Marshall Hamachi: Is, can you please discuss your take on the pantone color of the year. 108 00:19:30.990 --> 00:19:37.980 Vanessa Peterson: yeah so really quickly so in regards to pantone pantone one thing that they do well, is that they're really great. 109 00:19:38.340 --> 00:19:49.590 Vanessa Peterson: At they're really great at marketing they're really great at you know really representing what is capable from color as far as a global industrial color. 110 00:19:49.980 --> 00:19:58.800 Vanessa Peterson: And lot of their research is very adequate and makes a lot of sense when they're presenting the color of the year, the one thing pantone is not capable of doing. 111 00:19:59.100 --> 00:20:08.550 Vanessa Peterson: is actually manufacturing and producing this color as a coating for any type of material substrate or. 112 00:20:09.090 --> 00:20:22.590 Vanessa Peterson: Product, so the one thing that PP G has a great advantage of is that when we release a color of the year, what we're telling our consumers and what we're telling from a marketing perspective is that we're capable of producing this color. 113 00:20:23.130 --> 00:20:35.130 Vanessa Peterson: As a coating that can go on anything if you want to put it on a car in your home interior exterior if you want to put it on an airplane if you want to put it on some headphones or a laptop or a washing machine. 114 00:20:35.460 --> 00:20:45.450 Vanessa Peterson: PP G has that capability, so when we're presenting color of the year we're saying this is a color that can be used broadly amongst all different design fields, whereas pantone. 115 00:20:45.750 --> 00:20:54.330 Vanessa Peterson: The only thing that they're really able to touch base on is like from a marketing perspective here's what we feel like this color really represents for. 116 00:20:55.110 --> 00:21:06.720 Vanessa Peterson: For a color of the year so there's a big difference between their type of research that they do, and our type of research, knowing that our color of the year, has to sit on all these different business units we can't just market it and say. 117 00:21:07.080 --> 00:21:13.590 Vanessa Peterson: here's the color of the year hope you guys enjoy it, we have to make sure it's usable and it's trending amongst all different platforms. 118 00:21:14.190 --> 00:21:24.750 Justine Parish: This is justine one of the reasons I asked is that whenever that pantone color comes out those of us in the fashion industry just scratch our heads and say what. 119 00:21:26.970 --> 00:21:33.420 Vanessa Peterson: yeah it's interesting because they they they they have one story to tell which is great and. 120 00:21:33.750 --> 00:21:45.900 Vanessa Peterson: they're like here's this very green color because Earth is very important, were like awesome great, but like no one, not everyone can use this Green color like very extreme green color and even this year now, with the very bare Perry. 121 00:21:46.620 --> 00:22:00.840 Vanessa Peterson: it's a very rich purple you know, and so it kind of scratching our head as well, like most people can't use this purple and like put it on their products like it's very intense so it's an interesting balance between. 122 00:22:01.530 --> 00:22:08.430 Vanessa Peterson: The multitudes of people who announced colors of the years, but for us, as I mentioned it's very important, because we have to make sure this color works everywhere. 123 00:22:08.970 --> 00:22:11.490 Justine Parish: Thank you i'm going to have to run to a class Thank you. 124 00:22:13.980 --> 00:22:21.660 Marshall Hamachi: Okay, so our next question from one of my students dinner it's still a little unclear to me how you actually select the trends. 125 00:22:21.990 --> 00:22:35.790 Marshall Hamachi: I understand there must be more than a gut feeling, but do you reference others trends in in parentheses fashion shows bigger brands like apple BMW, and so on, or are you so influential you can make suggestions that will just. 126 00:22:36.750 --> 00:22:42.750 Vanessa Peterson: yeah it's a little bit of all of that that's mentioned so one of the greatest things that we have as a company. 127 00:22:43.050 --> 00:22:51.030 Vanessa Peterson: Is that we have the capability of always researching sales and we just researching statistics and logistics that go into coatings and manufacturing so. 128 00:22:51.180 --> 00:23:02.460 Vanessa Peterson: we're able to pull into our records and know what colors are successful in the marketplace what colors are selling well what colors are really gravitating to the consumers and that information is invaluable to our customers if we. 129 00:23:02.460 --> 00:23:13.800 Vanessa Peterson: can tell them, you can have confidence in producing this blue onto your product, because we know it has a high success rate so that's one good thing that we have when we add in our research The other thing as. 130 00:23:13.860 --> 00:23:15.750 Vanessa Peterson: We mentioned in our color workshop. 131 00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:23.520 Vanessa Peterson: That we have annually, we have 11 countries represented, we have over 35 different stylist so what we're doing is we're coming together. 132 00:23:23.820 --> 00:23:34.140 Vanessa Peterson: And we're talking about what is trending in our regions across the globe, what we see happening not only from a political standpoint but financially economically, socially, culturally. 133 00:23:34.350 --> 00:23:43.830 Vanessa Peterson: And we're bringing all that information so that we understand, we know how people are feeling we understand like why they're feeling this way and how color can have that impact on their lives. 134 00:23:43.860 --> 00:23:44.910 Marshall Hamachi: Based off that mood. 135 00:23:45.150 --> 00:23:50.940 Vanessa Peterson: and experience that they're going through so that's another factor really tapping into human interaction and human emotion. 136 00:23:51.330 --> 00:24:03.300 Vanessa Peterson: And then the third aspect, as you mentioned, is that we are researching what other companies are doing and how they're influencing there's a lot of global trend companies out there, so there's w DSM but claire's. 137 00:24:03.990 --> 00:24:16.290 Vanessa Peterson: color inspiration and so forth, and so on, who are also doing an extreme amount of research as well, so we're taking all of that into account, while we're coming up with palette and we're coming up with direction, but a lot of it is we. 138 00:24:16.290 --> 00:24:21.960 Vanessa Peterson: Are we are creating the influence that's impacting trends as well, so that when we go to these big customers. 139 00:24:22.170 --> 00:24:29.340 Vanessa Peterson: Such as BMW or, such as the companies that you've mentioned they know that we're we're bringing them something unique. 140 00:24:29.340 --> 00:24:32.190 Vanessa Peterson: Something that maybe they haven't seen on their side of. 141 00:24:32.460 --> 00:24:35.910 Vanessa Peterson: You know their own trend research as well, so we take a lot of that. 142 00:24:35.910 --> 00:24:37.560 Vanessa Peterson: into consideration when we're putting these. 143 00:24:37.560 --> 00:24:38.730 Marshall Hamachi: presentations together. 144 00:24:40.260 --> 00:24:40.770 Marshall Hamachi: that's great. 145 00:24:41.820 --> 00:24:54.270 Marshall Hamachi: So, speaking of wgs and our next question from reiko it's good to hear from you again reiko does he have any new highly durable staying flexible codecs. 146 00:24:55.590 --> 00:25:00.150 Vanessa Peterson: We have a little bit of everything, the one thing that's very interesting with the. 147 00:25:00.450 --> 00:25:17.580 Vanessa Peterson: With the pandemic is that it really pushed us into what are our patients and our coatings are capable of doing so, a lot of requests for anti microbial anti bacterial type of coatings have been a new thing, so our laboratories across the world are working on all of that. 148 00:25:18.300 --> 00:25:19.830 Vanessa Peterson: we've also have a. 149 00:25:19.860 --> 00:25:23.070 Vanessa Peterson: lot of top coats that are called stain resistant because. 150 00:25:23.070 --> 00:25:26.220 Vanessa Peterson: that's exactly what they do when you use it as a top go to protect the paint. 151 00:25:26.520 --> 00:25:44.400 Vanessa Peterson: anything from sharpies handprints lotions perfumes, are all durable against are all this this coating is very durable against that we are introducing our new Water based technologies, which is now very sustainable and very much better for the environment, so, as I mentioned, it is water. 152 00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:49.110 Vanessa Peterson: base and we're able to do a bunch of great technologies, if you look at our our panels that are on the. 153 00:25:49.110 --> 00:25:59.700 Vanessa Peterson: table you get a chance to see them they're all marked on the back, as to whether they're solving born or waterborne so there's a lot that we're doing PP G has a lot of great coatings that are very durable. 154 00:25:59.940 --> 00:26:06.810 Vanessa Peterson: And that we're always consistently pushing our capabilities to make sure that we're hitting the needs of our customers from a global. 155 00:26:07.140 --> 00:26:21.090 Vanessa Peterson: perspective, not only further testing, but their abrasions their safety flammability all of the above, so yeah P G is always on the cusp and among the leading front of making sure that our coatings either most durable out in the marketplace. 156 00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:37.920 Marshall Hamachi: Is Vanessa our next question from another faculty Member can really Marty if they were to spec your palate colors per category auto interior exterior consumer product, etc, how would you group them. 157 00:26:41.490 --> 00:26:43.320 Marshall Hamachi: Does that question make sense to you, then so. 158 00:26:44.490 --> 00:26:47.820 Vanessa Peterson: I think so, can you say it one more time i'm sorry. 159 00:26:48.660 --> 00:26:49.110 sure. 160 00:26:50.850 --> 00:26:59.520 Marshall Hamachi: If they wanted to spec your palate colors per category, for example, auto interior auto exterior consumer products, etc, how would you group them. 161 00:27:00.990 --> 00:27:10.260 Vanessa Peterson: So all of our different SP use use the same trend research and the trending groups and the micro trends that you're seeing presented here, so if you were to want to. 162 00:27:10.650 --> 00:27:12.030 Vanessa Peterson: First, for example. 163 00:27:12.060 --> 00:27:25.800 Vanessa Peterson: Go and say you want to spec out these colors specific for automotive interiors or exteriors we have a presentation specifically geared for automotive, so our automotive team would would showcase their trends. 164 00:27:26.220 --> 00:27:28.320 Vanessa Peterson: they're trying to colors based off these three. 165 00:27:28.800 --> 00:27:42.420 Vanessa Peterson: groupings so, for example, if you wanted to take all of sprig, for example, there's an all of spring that exists in architectural and consumer products in automotive in wheels in aerospace and so forth, and so on, so you would be able to spec the. 166 00:27:42.420 --> 00:27:45.660 Vanessa Peterson: same color amongst all those different business units. 167 00:27:46.740 --> 00:27:51.390 Vanessa Peterson: For for project that you had specifically so in terms of automotive. 168 00:27:52.650 --> 00:27:55.620 Vanessa Peterson: There are ways, there are there are. 169 00:27:56.160 --> 00:28:12.210 Vanessa Peterson: Very existing colors that we all use the same color palette if that makes sense, so you're able to spec any of these colors from the different oh yams or different SP us to find the color that you're looking for, for your appropriate business unit, if that makes sense. 170 00:28:13.620 --> 00:28:15.930 Vanessa Peterson: I hope I answered that right i'm sorry if I did. 171 00:28:16.860 --> 00:28:27.870 Marshall Hamachi: And I think you started to address the next question from where my students dina is this translates universal to your other offices, is there a separate color of your other offices. 172 00:28:28.650 --> 00:28:30.000 Vanessa Peterson: For a PG. 173 00:28:30.030 --> 00:28:45.210 Vanessa Peterson: PG as a global company everything that you see here is what PP geez representing as a global unit, so, while each business unit might interpret the color different based off our technology is not capabilities, the overall color palettes. 174 00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:50.010 Vanessa Peterson: The themes, the overarching theme of horizon is all consistent globally, so you are going to. 175 00:28:50.040 --> 00:28:54.330 Vanessa Peterson: be hearing the same story from a global perspective from all bbg units. 176 00:28:57.210 --> 00:29:05.550 Marshall Hamachi: Okay, and from another one soon spice How would you go about selecting a series of colors or set of colors for steam versus a single color. 177 00:29:06.930 --> 00:29:17.640 Vanessa Peterson: So the single color whenever we go and try to predict color of the year that's borderline almost a wickham process, because we have to specify a color that, as I mentioned earlier. 178 00:29:17.970 --> 00:29:27.540 Vanessa Peterson: has the ability to you know be represented on a broad broad range of design interpretation, so this is a color that has to exist on automotive exterior. 179 00:29:27.720 --> 00:29:34.350 Vanessa Peterson: An automotive Interior on the exterior of a plane on the laptop on a headphone on so forth, and so on, as I mentioned. 180 00:29:34.590 --> 00:29:40.320 Vanessa Peterson: So there's a lot of research that goes into and a lot of debate and a lot of conversation that goes into the single color of the year. 181 00:29:40.530 --> 00:29:51.990 Vanessa Peterson: And there's a lot of fighting and debating that happens where you know, for example, North America might say Oh, this is a great color We can see this, and then we can really see this on our products and then Asia Pacific might be like. 182 00:29:52.020 --> 00:29:58.560 Vanessa Peterson: Absolutely not this color would absolutely fail in Asia, and then we might have someone from Scandinavia be like. 183 00:29:58.830 --> 00:30:05.790 Vanessa Peterson: This color is way too dark we could never use this here so there's a lot of information that we take into account when we're selecting a single color of the year. 184 00:30:06.030 --> 00:30:12.120 Vanessa Peterson: and making sure that it's usable amongst all global regions, and then the same thing goes into when we're selecting the color. 185 00:30:12.120 --> 00:30:14.880 Vanessa Peterson: palette is, we want to make sure one. 186 00:30:14.970 --> 00:30:23.400 Vanessa Peterson: That when someone looks at it, they automatically get the emotion that we're trying to have them feel based off the trend information so when you look at the introspective palette. 187 00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:34.410 Vanessa Peterson: you're looking at it and you're like wow you know those are really calming optimistic colors like I do feel certain when I look at them, or when you look at inspired you're like wow that's really bold and I like I. 188 00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:36.930 Vanessa Peterson: really see the digital aspect of those colors. 189 00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:41.670 Vanessa Peterson: and so forth, and so on, only go into all of our different color palette so there's a lot of a lot of. 190 00:30:42.780 --> 00:30:48.780 Vanessa Peterson: discussion and a lot of research that we go into putting together these pilots, making sure they're harmonious with one another. 191 00:30:49.050 --> 00:30:56.520 Vanessa Peterson: Making sure that they're hitting that emotional conversation that we're we're hitting and also to that they're trending in the we see them as something that's going to be. 192 00:30:56.520 --> 00:31:00.660 Vanessa Peterson: happening in the marketplace in the coming year, because we always try and a year and a half out. 193 00:31:01.290 --> 00:31:11.040 Vanessa Peterson: So there's a lot of discussion that goes into them but, but mainly we want to make sure that when we're hitting that demographic trend and we're seeing where people's emotions are. 194 00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:17.130 Vanessa Peterson: mentally that we're making sure that when they see a color because color so impactful to the human psyche. 195 00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.350 Vanessa Peterson: That when they see it, they get that. 196 00:31:19.350 --> 00:31:22.080 Vanessa Peterson: feeling they get that story that we're trying to tell. 197 00:31:25.170 --> 00:31:37.980 Marshall Hamachi: Okay, so next question from Oslo and I noticed that all the colors in the three palettes are yellow based all our warm in temperature, except for any crypto blue in the inspired palette. 198 00:31:38.370 --> 00:31:47.880 Marshall Hamachi: i'm curious as to why that blue is the standalone cool color in the group in parentheses, it could be just how my displays to picking the color but that's a cool blue. 199 00:31:49.410 --> 00:31:58.620 Vanessa Peterson: So that's awesome that you picked up on that so one of the biggest things that we did see trending a lot is that a lot of colors at their base are going a lot warmer. 200 00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:07.380 Vanessa Peterson: So that's great that's awesome that you picked up on that and that you saw that and then, when it comes to that color specifically blues are always very interesting because blues. 201 00:32:07.650 --> 00:32:14.430 Vanessa Peterson: blues for the most part i'll give you this little trick hidden inside information blues will never fail. 202 00:32:15.060 --> 00:32:24.420 Vanessa Peterson: blues are the most popular colors in in product development blue is the one color that makes people feel happy, it makes people feel joyous it makes them think of water it's very collegiate. 203 00:32:24.690 --> 00:32:32.430 Vanessa Peterson: it's very business it's very much branded you see them logos everywhere it's a very successful color blue rarely makes people feel. 204 00:32:32.730 --> 00:32:44.760 Vanessa Peterson: angry or any type of way, so we have the ability, with blue to kind of take it in any direction that we want for the most part and blue going on the cooler side of blue going on the warmer side, or it having a undertone of any type of. 205 00:32:46.230 --> 00:32:59.010 Vanessa Peterson: You know, yellow or red will really always have kind of a success to it, for the most part, so when we were creating it for inspired we really wanted to you know have something that gave you that impression. 206 00:32:59.490 --> 00:33:04.230 Vanessa Peterson: impression of a digital on screen blue that was very social media based very. 207 00:33:04.890 --> 00:33:15.810 Vanessa Peterson: augmented a very strong blue that you would see on your screen and screen colors very much for the most part, have this underlining coolness to it because of the lightness coming in from behind it, so we really kind of wanted to. 208 00:33:15.810 --> 00:33:17.940 Vanessa Peterson: emulate that look when it came to this blue. 209 00:33:18.210 --> 00:33:24.870 Vanessa Peterson: So that's why that one specifically we really wanted to gear it to the digital color that was in the inspired category. 210 00:33:28.110 --> 00:33:41.520 Marshall Hamachi: next question from oil it's a question about car interiors I know there isn't much about painting finished colors that are used in vehicle interiors but what I know is that the market is growing, do you work on those as well. 211 00:33:42.420 --> 00:33:47.340 Vanessa Peterson: Yes, so ppd does have an entire styling group that is dedicated to interior colors. 212 00:33:47.730 --> 00:33:53.070 Vanessa Peterson: Normally, in the past, we have had boxes, similar to the ones that you see on the in. 213 00:33:53.100 --> 00:33:58.500 Vanessa Peterson: The room that that Marshall isn't that was specific to interior finishes and interior. 214 00:33:58.500 --> 00:33:59.220 colorings. 215 00:34:00.330 --> 00:34:09.390 Vanessa Peterson: But with everything happening with the pandemic and budget cuts and so forth, and so on, that that presentation kind of got left to just an. 216 00:34:09.420 --> 00:34:20.520 Vanessa Peterson: Overall automotive presentation, so I do agree with you it's definitely something that is trending really much it's trending a lot sorry and a lot of. 217 00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:29.490 Vanessa Peterson: A lot of information and trends are geared towards interior spaces, especially now with the ev movement taking over, and you know cabins now becoming more. 218 00:34:31.710 --> 00:34:40.440 Vanessa Peterson: I want to say hospitable they're becoming more like living rooms and more designs geared towards people being able to lounge in their cars instead of it just being you know, a cedar. 219 00:34:40.530 --> 00:34:41.640 Vanessa Peterson: A seat that you sit in. 220 00:34:42.330 --> 00:34:45.480 Vanessa Peterson: So yeah there's a lot of research in that, and a lot of things that we're. 221 00:34:45.510 --> 00:35:00.360 Vanessa Peterson: gearing towards having more information have in the future So yes, if there's any additional information you guys might want on that we can send over the automotive presentation that our counterparts put together that you can have. 222 00:35:02.130 --> 00:35:03.000 Marshall Hamachi: that's great and i'll work. 223 00:35:05.010 --> 00:35:06.600 Ahyoung Roh: And also, I feel so bad about it. 224 00:35:09.870 --> 00:35:19.590 Marshall Hamachi: Okay, the next question from faculty Member Leonard wozniak, and this is actually a question, not just for you Vanessa but for us as a department and product design. 225 00:35:20.250 --> 00:35:25.350 Marshall Hamachi: In the product design department our stated goal is that sustainability permeates everything we do. 226 00:35:25.830 --> 00:35:38.850 Marshall Hamachi: and taking a seasonal trend based approach with industrial design physical products, how do we responsibly consider contemporary color theories within materials and manufacturing processes that may be permanent in nature. 227 00:35:39.450 --> 00:35:43.980 Marshall Hamachi: Is there something to be learned by the effects of fat fast fashion, thank you. 228 00:35:47.940 --> 00:35:56.070 Vanessa Peterson: yeah so we we talked about the fast fashion industry, the fast manager industry and all of that all the time in our presentations. 229 00:35:56.400 --> 00:36:06.180 Vanessa Peterson: And we've been consistently pushed by all of our global clients to become more sustainable, to have paints and coatings that are more friendlier to the environment so. 230 00:36:06.600 --> 00:36:17.310 Vanessa Peterson: What everything that we've done in past years, has been very strong and solvent based technology we've really been pushing our water based technology now, which is so much more eco friendly to the environment. 231 00:36:17.610 --> 00:36:24.360 Vanessa Peterson: Less fumes less vapors less carcinogenic says going out into the environment so with that. 232 00:36:24.720 --> 00:36:33.210 Vanessa Peterson: we're definitely pushing our capabilities to make sure that ppd as a whole is a more sustainable company that our carbon footprint is way less and. 233 00:36:33.420 --> 00:36:38.430 Vanessa Peterson: With all of the legislations and laws happening now to protect our environment we're definitely. 234 00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:44.250 Vanessa Peterson: we're definitely taking those appropriate steps to make sure that we're in line with all of that to make sure. 235 00:36:44.490 --> 00:36:57.840 Vanessa Peterson: That we're giving our customers and not only are we giving our customers what they're asking me for but us as a company are taking the appropriate steps to make sure that we're leading the charge in sustainable and eco friendly color and coding development. 236 00:37:01.080 --> 00:37:06.360 Vanessa Peterson: I mean we can't we can't have a logo that says ppd we protect and beautify the world if we don't stand by that. 237 00:37:09.750 --> 00:37:11.970 Marshall Hamachi: Okay Oh, and one more question from oil. 238 00:37:13.080 --> 00:37:23.370 Marshall Hamachi: What kind of different methods are his people working on to present materials in the virtual world and she was amazed, including videos and materials online. 239 00:37:24.420 --> 00:37:31.860 Vanessa Peterson: So that's been our biggest our biggest strive right now, because we have been online and, fortunately, with all of our customers. 240 00:37:32.160 --> 00:37:42.120 Vanessa Peterson: Working remotely they're not able to meet together as a team because before we'd be able to send everyone one box they'd all be in the same studio together, they would view the colors and we'd be able to have that discussion with them. 241 00:37:42.570 --> 00:37:51.810 Vanessa Peterson: Now, with everyone working remotely we're not able to send a box to every cms designer across the globe, so we have started to integrate our technology. 242 00:37:52.200 --> 00:38:05.280 Vanessa Peterson: With our 3D modeling team that people he has internal that are able to take our panels and they're able to photograph and video graph this our panels and show every angle of it and. 243 00:38:05.580 --> 00:38:16.110 Vanessa Peterson: Show you are color travel are metallics are color shifting our textual finishes to really help people who are watching from a virtual standpoint. 244 00:38:16.380 --> 00:38:17.370 Vanessa Peterson: What our. 245 00:38:17.520 --> 00:38:29.250 Vanessa Peterson: colors are capable of doing when you seen them in person, so right now we only have three per category, we are striving to have all 10 of them done, if possible, and have. 246 00:38:29.580 --> 00:38:34.500 Vanessa Peterson: Another digital area of our presentation did it dedicated to showing you the travel. 247 00:38:34.740 --> 00:38:47.100 Vanessa Peterson: And the flop, and the face of each one of our panels if you're not able to have the panel in person, so we are working towards that in the future, to make sure that we're really representing our colors virtually as best as we can. 248 00:38:47.520 --> 00:38:50.670 Vanessa Peterson: With the understanding that every screen is going to show color. 249 00:38:51.120 --> 00:39:05.880 Vanessa Peterson: slightly differently, for the most part, so we're we're also considering creating smaller fan decks instead of full boxes that make it a lot easier for us to send out to people in person, so there's a lot of research on our and trying to figure out how to make that work. 250 00:39:09.240 --> 00:39:12.450 Marshall Hamachi: So I have a question about process Vanessa. 251 00:39:13.710 --> 00:39:26.820 Marshall Hamachi: Given that we have the sample boxes, with all the different panels to get a sense of the finishes and capabilities within these color trends, if I am a customer a tech company a cf designer. 252 00:39:27.660 --> 00:39:35.280 Marshall Hamachi: This to me represents a baseline to start a conversation what would happen if I wanted to do something more customized and what I get it. 253 00:39:35.790 --> 00:39:51.840 Vanessa Peterson: yeah so that's exactly how our color workshops work so Marshall as the cms designer you would come to us, and we would set up a meeting and will be like Marshall it's that time of the year again we're excited to present the ppm global color themes and color trends. 254 00:39:52.440 --> 00:39:55.320 Vanessa Peterson: We can't wait to present it to you, we would either come to you it's. 255 00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:13.530 Vanessa Peterson: Pre pandemic or now virtually as we're in the pandemic and we would present you this presentation, you will look at all of our our our color standards and our color directions and you would be like Oh well, you know I really feel like maybe all of sprig and footprint and vintage. 256 00:40:13.560 --> 00:40:19.050 Vanessa Peterson: really speak to my brands vision of where we want to go with our new products in the coming year. 257 00:40:19.260 --> 00:40:29.100 Vanessa Peterson: Is there a way for you guys to really make this you know tweak it a little bit or reformulated so that it's more towards our plan and we will be like a yes definitely. 258 00:40:29.340 --> 00:40:36.420 Vanessa Peterson: So those are the moments, where you either have the option as a designer to come into our color workshop and work directly with our designers. 259 00:40:36.450 --> 00:40:37.500 Vanessa Peterson: Or we can always. 260 00:40:37.530 --> 00:40:46.680 Vanessa Peterson: continue to do it virtually based off where we are at the time, but then you would work with our stylist specifically such as Jared or john or summer. 261 00:40:46.950 --> 00:40:58.350 Vanessa Peterson: And you would work with them to manipulate the way you want this color to work for your brand so if we take all of spirit, for example, and you look at it you're like you know we really love this Green tone, but can we make it. 262 00:40:58.350 --> 00:40:59.880 Vanessa Peterson: More blue can we maybe. 263 00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:05.310 Vanessa Peterson: emphasize a little bit more on the metallic maybe make the pigment a little maybe make the um. 264 00:41:06.060 --> 00:41:11.880 Vanessa Peterson: The sizing of the particle a little bit larger can we get it to travel a little bit more kind of maybe want to add a. 265 00:41:12.420 --> 00:41:28.350 Vanessa Peterson: Blue metallic highlight too weird or you know, can we try it in a map version, instead of a high gloss finish, so we work with you at that point, one on one to customize that color formulation, to make sure that weren't giving it to you the way it's needed for it to represent your brand. 266 00:41:29.370 --> 00:41:37.680 Vanessa Peterson: Perfectly so that process can take one day it could take five days, depending on how many colors you want to be do. 267 00:41:37.950 --> 00:41:44.790 Vanessa Peterson: But this always this color presentation always starts as a starting off point to inspire our customers and then have them work off of. 268 00:41:45.180 --> 00:41:57.480 Vanessa Peterson: The color palette to rebrand them for their for their company specific and then that formula that once you watch a look at it and you're like new approving you're like this is perfect, this is exactly what we want for our brand. 269 00:41:57.870 --> 00:42:12.240 Vanessa Peterson: We then send that formula over to our China team if you're manufacturing is within China they get it ready for production, they make sure that it, it is created to withstand all of your company's testing. 270 00:42:12.540 --> 00:42:17.790 Vanessa Peterson: And then, once that's approved, we send it and it's on the line and it's spraying on your products and. 271 00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:22.830 Vanessa Peterson: A couple of months down the road it's at best buy and target for your customers ready to buy. 272 00:42:25.200 --> 00:42:28.170 Marshall Hamachi: that's great, thank you for taking us through that walkthrough. 273 00:42:29.730 --> 00:42:30.180 Marshall Hamachi: Okay. 274 00:42:31.860 --> 00:42:39.300 Marshall Hamachi: looks like we're coming to the end of our time here and I want to just make sure that there are no other questions I don't see anything new in the chat but. 275 00:42:40.020 --> 00:42:50.970 Marshall Hamachi: For those of you that wants to just jump in and ask a question, please go ahead and do so, I just want to open that up for anyone that has any last minute questions for either Vanessa or jaron. 276 00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:57.990 Marshall Hamachi: Yes, please ah so things like all of your colors and kind of like more like one color except for the. 277 00:42:59.850 --> 00:43:00.570 Marshall Hamachi: lexical. 278 00:43:00.660 --> 00:43:09.870 Marshall Hamachi: pulse, how do you kind of like go about choosing to do a color that's more like a combination of things rather than one with maybe different like textural. 279 00:43:13.200 --> 00:43:17.370 Vanessa Peterson: I couldn't hear very well, could you repeat her question for me Marshall i'm sorry. 280 00:43:18.300 --> 00:43:22.530 Marshall Hamachi: No problem so that actually i'll just come closer so maybe Kelly can ask a question. 281 00:43:23.550 --> 00:43:29.520 Marshall Hamachi: I was just wondering how you go about like what leads to a choice to make the color like pulse where it's kind of a combination of colors. 282 00:43:29.820 --> 00:43:39.000 Marshall Hamachi: versus maybe just a color or like a you know, like different textures like the glass or things like that um I guess in general It just seems so different for the rest of your offerings. 283 00:43:39.390 --> 00:43:46.530 Vanessa Peterson: yeah so um so we have some really good capabilities from a consumer product standpoint, we get to do so much more. 284 00:43:46.830 --> 00:44:05.100 Vanessa Peterson: That architectural aerospace automotive just are not capable of doing so, we get to really have fun with like different metallics maybe chunkier metallic spine metallics color shifting metallic solids textures like you see augmented there that's. 285 00:44:05.130 --> 00:44:06.300 Vanessa Peterson: You know, a chrome. 286 00:44:06.300 --> 00:44:09.900 Vanessa Peterson: Finish and then Paul says you reference I were able to add a gradient to it. 287 00:44:10.170 --> 00:44:24.150 Vanessa Peterson: So we're really able to play with the with the surface texture that we add to our paint and with the inspired category specifically since pulse sits in the in the inspired category, we really wanted to get crazy with our. 288 00:44:24.810 --> 00:44:34.380 Vanessa Peterson: Our our our surface choices that we selected we really wanted to you know push the bar so even with quantum rain and synopsis those are sprayed on transparent. 289 00:44:34.380 --> 00:44:39.690 Vanessa Peterson: substrates which isn't very common in consumer products, most people don't do. 290 00:44:40.020 --> 00:44:52.980 Vanessa Peterson: Transparent substrates, but it is something that is capable of being done so, we always want to show how we can push the bar so from a fashion standpoint, I would say this category is our avant garde couture category where it's like the high price. 291 00:44:52.980 --> 00:44:55.800 Vanessa Peterson: finishes but it's the most fun to look at. 292 00:44:55.980 --> 00:45:03.570 Vanessa Peterson: So we always want to show off our capability and what we're able to do, but we also want to make sure that it's in line with the trend in the theme. 293 00:45:03.810 --> 00:45:11.430 Vanessa Peterson: Which is why, when you look at inspired there's a lot more crazier effects, such as the gradients the color shifts the transparent substrates the chromatic. 294 00:45:12.390 --> 00:45:22.800 Vanessa Peterson: The chrome finishes and the high metallic sparkles so we always want to, we always want to create finishes that fit with the trend that we're trying to. 295 00:45:23.490 --> 00:45:32.760 Vanessa Peterson: showcase and that's why, even when you look at invaluable we have like the H silver there that really kind of makes it look like it's like a rusted old piece of. 296 00:45:33.570 --> 00:45:42.900 Vanessa Peterson: silver or you know really trying to hit on those colors that when you look at them kind of remind you of like maybe stuff some stuff that you would find that thrift stores or vintage stores. 297 00:45:45.240 --> 00:45:45.840 Marshall Hamachi: Thank you. 298 00:45:47.970 --> 00:45:49.620 Marshall Hamachi: Hello there's another question. 299 00:45:50.940 --> 00:45:51.570 Marshall Hamachi: Mike so. 300 00:45:53.970 --> 00:46:00.510 Marshall Hamachi: So, with respect to like trends like you mentioned like you go to like various levels of a trend trend. 301 00:46:01.200 --> 00:46:16.260 Marshall Hamachi: And then I come up with like key areas, you want to like identify and then go about it, but like when you like talk about transactions to like open ended up area that, how do you actually go about like going to the trend trend research. 302 00:46:17.280 --> 00:46:26.340 Marshall Hamachi: Because I even take any category every category has like a trend making you mentioned, like a table the table has done so, but how do you like, because you're talking with them. 303 00:46:27.450 --> 00:46:28.680 Marshall Hamachi: Across categories that. 304 00:46:30.300 --> 00:46:30.960 Marshall Hamachi: Go out like. 305 00:46:32.190 --> 00:46:33.330 Marshall Hamachi: Bringing the gas down. 306 00:46:33.900 --> 00:46:44.310 Vanessa Peterson: yeah it's a long process, which is why our color of the year meeting is is longer than a week, sometimes, because we have to take everything into account, as I mentioned, like. 307 00:46:44.520 --> 00:46:57.150 Vanessa Peterson: For us to sit there and be like Oh, we chose this color because we think it's really pretty is not going to be suitable for a customer who's spending multi millions of dollars on a product that they need to succeed in the marketplace. 308 00:46:57.390 --> 00:47:04.470 Vanessa Peterson: So we really have to be very sensitive to how we're doing our research, while we are presenting to them and making sure that what we're presenting. 309 00:47:04.800 --> 00:47:17.640 Vanessa Peterson: really is like showcasing to them our capabilities from a research standpoint, so this this graph that was originally shown to you and explain to you by Jared are just some of the key words and kind of how we get. 310 00:47:17.910 --> 00:47:26.370 Vanessa Peterson: To where where we are so when we take all of those trends that we're looking into and we're researching and, as I mentioned, you know when we're looking at what's. 311 00:47:26.370 --> 00:47:28.020 Vanessa Peterson: already happening in the industry. 312 00:47:28.290 --> 00:47:40.530 Vanessa Peterson: What the shows and stuff that we're predicting are going to be happening and what we see kind of starting to come into the design field additionally with what's happening, like in our region specifically from. 313 00:47:41.100 --> 00:47:58.110 Vanessa Peterson: All going I mentioned my political social standpoint, we have to take into account how people are feeling what they're feeling and what my gear them towards buying a certain color so a good example of this is, you know when we were trending colors in for the year 2020. 314 00:47:59.970 --> 00:48:00.330 Marshall Hamachi: Was. 315 00:48:02.790 --> 00:48:14.550 Vanessa Peterson: Sorry, so like whenever where we are trending colors and we know, for example in North America we're going into a political season, we know it's a very it's a time when things are like very unsure very. 316 00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:19.080 Vanessa Peterson: Unexpected people are those emotions are really running. 317 00:48:19.110 --> 00:48:20.160 Vanessa Peterson: High people are. 318 00:48:20.160 --> 00:48:30.210 Vanessa Peterson: very sensitive and you know a lot of things are very much thrown at you people start to get very overstimulated so when we know we're going into a political season and we're going to present colors that are. 319 00:48:30.690 --> 00:48:32.820 Vanessa Peterson: going to be coming out during an election year. 320 00:48:33.210 --> 00:48:42.120 Vanessa Peterson: we're very sensitive to what those colors are we might not go with you know collegiate colors that remind people like political parties or that remind them of. 321 00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:49.110 Vanessa Peterson: You know, things that you know they may not want to be associated with, we have to be very sensitive and take all those things into consideration. 322 00:48:49.320 --> 00:48:56.310 Vanessa Peterson: So that maybe we're like you know, this is a time where people probably need to like relax and, like the desensitize a little bit. 323 00:48:56.580 --> 00:49:09.420 Vanessa Peterson: Maybe we should present more common colors more grounding colors and you know that make them feel a little bit more at peace granted, what with everything that's going on and that's taken into account, amongst all different. 324 00:49:09.780 --> 00:49:13.560 Vanessa Peterson: regions across the world, so we always have to take into account what's happening. 325 00:49:13.830 --> 00:49:22.260 Vanessa Peterson: Are there protests happening are people unhappy with where they are right now, are we going to economic crisis are we in a pandemic. 326 00:49:22.530 --> 00:49:28.530 Vanessa Peterson: You know it's all of these things that we've taken to consideration that are going to affect human interaction human moods. 327 00:49:28.740 --> 00:49:35.160 Vanessa Peterson: Human emotions and why they might not be geared towards certain colors that's why you see a rise and different trends were. 328 00:49:35.430 --> 00:49:46.830 Vanessa Peterson: years before neon or like a huge thing and everyone was wearing yawns when they worked out in their shoes with neon and everyone was happy and optimistic and then all of a sudden, we got into a very deep political season and neon. 329 00:49:46.860 --> 00:49:48.180 Marshall Hamachi: we're out the door, no one wanted to. 330 00:49:48.180 --> 00:49:56.520 Vanessa Peterson: see a neon on wanted to see bright colors everyone wanted to be very Moody we got into a very Moody color and then the pandemic it, for example, so, then we got into the. 331 00:49:56.520 --> 00:50:04.770 Vanessa Peterson: cozy avenue, where everyone was white and beiges and dusty pastels and colors that were not overstimulating they want to close that made you. 332 00:50:04.770 --> 00:50:17.730 Vanessa Peterson: feel relaxed and then now we're going into more optimistic joy fees and we're like Okay, are we on the cusp of coming out of this pandemic, maybe we'll see if people want like more thriving colors that are more optimistic so we're starting. 333 00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:19.440 Vanessa Peterson: To see these boulder colors start to. 334 00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:27.930 Vanessa Peterson: come into play, again, so all of that to say i'm trying to put a ton of research into like one answer but there's a lot that goes into it. 335 00:50:29.250 --> 00:50:30.930 Marshall Hamachi: that's thanks Vanessa. 336 00:50:33.660 --> 00:50:38.370 Marshall Hamachi: Any other last minute questions from our attendees. 337 00:50:39.930 --> 00:50:43.890 Marshall Hamachi: Before we let our friends from tg go. 338 00:50:45.150 --> 00:50:45.630 Marshall Hamachi: else. 339 00:50:48.450 --> 00:50:57.390 Marshall Hamachi: Okay doesn't sound like it, so I think we can go ahead and wrap up Vanessa and Jared on behalf of my class. 340 00:50:58.050 --> 00:51:16.800 Marshall Hamachi: Grand ID mm to eight and the rest of the art Center attendees Thank you so much for your time we always appreciate you being able to share insight about global color trends, especially with KPMG being so pervasive and influential in terms of the consumer product market and. 341 00:51:17.880 --> 00:51:19.740 Marshall Hamachi: Again, thank you so much, and. 342

hey Kimberly I got your text, but I didn't open it up, because I think on zoom can see everything I didn't have to work that out, but. 349 00:52:11.700 --> 00:52:12.300 No problem. 350 00:52:15.720 --> 00:52:17.790 Marshall Hamachi: Okay we're good now Kimberly. 351 00:52:18.480 --> 00:52:18.720 Kimberly Marte: Oh. 352 00:52:18.780 --> 00:52:19.230 hey so. 353 00:52:25.350 --> 00:52:27.360 Marshall Hamachi: Can you just introduce yourself real quick. 354 00:52:27.750 --> 00:52:34.950 Kimberly Marte: Of course, so Hello i'm Kimberly Marty, I am the art Center cms design educator on campus. 355 00:52:35.640 --> 00:52:45.060 Kimberly Marte: My background in color materials and finishes is with Honda for 10 years and tesla for five years after that I started my own company. 356 00:52:45.450 --> 00:53:02.490 Kimberly Marte: And I also teach at art Center so I wanted to let you guys know that we do teach trend forecasting at art Center along with color materials and finishes so you may not be aware of this, but there within the product design department there's a class called introduction to. 357 00:53:04.170 --> 00:53:14.670 Kimberly Marte: cms for product design in the transportation there's a class called introduction to automotive cms interiors and in the TTS program there's a class called insights. 358 00:53:15.240 --> 00:53:32.370 Kimberly Marte: All three of these classes include cms education, as well as trend forecasting, so I noticed today that there was a lot of people asking like, how do you do a trend and Rico and I really dig into all of that to teach you how that's done so. 359 00:53:32.550 --> 00:53:40.290 Kimberly Marte: If you haven't learned cms as an aspect of design you're more than welcome to join any of these classes. 360 00:53:40.950 --> 00:53:54.330 Kimberly Marte: If you have any questions for Rico and I, we are the ones that are teaching most of the trend forecasting on campus so lovely to meet all of you, I don't know if any of you have any questions for me at this time. 361 00:53:56.400 --> 00:53:57.720 Marshall Hamachi: And questions for Kimberly. 362 00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:03.030 Marshall Hamachi: know. 363 00:54:04.470 --> 00:54:05.490 Marshall Hamachi: Everything well. 364 00:54:06.240 --> 00:54:19.770 Kimberly Marte: yeah it's a lot of information yeah color materials and finishes is a growing industry, and we are designers within the design teams, we specialize in just color materials and finishes for any product so. 365 00:54:20.640 --> 00:54:30.150 Kimberly Marte: That just wanted to let you know that it is its own path and I get asked every day, do you have any students know how to do this so. 366 00:54:30.810 --> 00:54:38.700 Kimberly Marte: One of my students was on the PPT presentation today john graduated with a focus in automotive cms and is working for them. 367 00:54:39.270 --> 00:54:52.410 Kimberly Marte: And a why, and I have been doing cms for about three or four semesters now through transportation so there's a there is an avenue for it so have a wonderful day Marshall it's lovely to see you. 368 00:54:53.610 --> 00:54:54.390 Marshall Hamachi: Likewise. 369 00:54:54.960 --> 00:54:56.250 Kimberly Marte: You guys have a wonderful afternoon. 370 00:54:57.000 --> 00:54:58.920 Marshall Hamachi: He did Okay, thank you. 371 00:54:59.310 --> 00:54:59.790 bye. 372 00:55:01.020 --> 00:55:01.260 Oh. 373 00:55:04.440 --> 00:55:04.800 Marshall Hamachi: OK. 374 00:55:05.610 --> 00:55:16.140 Marshall Hamachi: So the trends question, I mean this is a not only one way to do it and there's lots of companies and different approaches and some are much deeper than others, but. 375 00:55:17.070 --> 00:55:22.530 Marshall Hamachi: I encourage you, if you are really interested in it, both Kimberly and reiko reiki was actually. 376 00:55:23.460 --> 00:55:37.200 Marshall Hamachi: She just joined a position with w GS and its head of like I think it does design trends, or something and she's a going to see math desire for way back from way back so both of them are so experienced and if you're interested in be worth taking the classes okay. 377 00:55:38.310 --> 00:55:43.080 Marshall Hamachi: cool I was for my etsy it's our classroom yes. 378 00:55:44.250 --> 00:55:57.240 Marshall Hamachi: For our class I was going to suggest just logging off and logging into our class, but since you're already here, nobody else's here, although we may get interrupted that's one thing i'm worried about for people that may. 379 00:55:59.970 --> 00:56:11.730 Marshall Hamachi: think that the presentation is still going on, so i'm going to suggest for our class please log off this zoom meeting and then log into our normal class it's the second link. 380 00:56:12.840 --> 00:56:13.230 Marshall Hamachi: Okay. 381 00:56:15.450 --> 00:56:16.530 Diderik Westby: cool See you in one thing. 382 00:56:17.430 --> 00:56:17.850 Okay.
