Colour Anti-Theory
summary
Uses quick mood board collage to pick five-purpose palettes, then converts those palettes into Photoshop adjustment layers and lookup tables that port directly into Unity (ProBuilder + post‑processing) so levels share a unified grade. Workflow relies on curves, tint/color balance, a saturation map to read hidden blues, and simple shaders to auto‑generate palettes — a client job produces ~1,000 distinct colors this way — grading ties disparate rooms together and speeds asset creation.
