I really like how this course is packed with basic and practical information about color theory and schemes. It gave me good perspective how to connect a color with data in data storytelling. It also gave me some ideas how to use this knowledge on some other projects of mine. If you're new in data visualization, this is the course you should take to learn how to use color to present data and communicate with your audience as it is important part of data science job.

This course is good but could be better with a few improvements. In my opinion, the dynamic of the two people did not add to the class, but detracted. As others mentioned, the woman's voice would fade in and out it wasn't always clear what she was trying to say. Also, for such a content rich course with many color concepts, the course did not have any handouts. I did screenshots myself and added comments to have a guide I can refer to in the future. I took color theory courses in the past, so this was a good refresher. It added a few new thoughts and ideas in light of the new technology available today, but I wouldn't call it visionary. I think they can do better and improve the course as there isn't too many courses on Udemy that cover this content.

content is good. the presenters talking too soft, while the music at ending is loud. i keep adjusting volume.

By Jared Rentz on 11/1/2020

Overall I would recommend it to learn about colors and how to use them in data projects.
I brought the course because I saw Kirill involved and I usually like his content creation. But he talks over the actual designer most of the time which is super distracting and causes me to lose engagement.

It's the best course from SuperDataScience I have taken thus far and I still can't rate it higher than two stars. The idea behind the course was good, but theoretical explanations were not clearly explained (they were fine, at best). The worst part though were the jokes: my god, they were cringy, eye-rolly, and awkward. Also, mentioning on several slides that you're a nerd doesn't look good. Just saying.

Quite interesting

It's Great to Learn about Colors.. Thanks a Lot

By Moses Lole on 9/25/2020

Cool. Getting to understand the physics behind colour

By Jason Ooi on 9/3/2020

Very eye opening. scientific way to tell which colors go well with one another.

By Nikolay MARIN on 8/12/2020

Good way of presenting in a dialog: male + female, artist and nerd. Theoretic topics are supplied with useful tools that I can use immediately. I enjoyed the class.

By Thomas Pierrre on 8/9/2020

The data for the exercise is not available unless one upgrades their membership which I had no intention of doing. Instruction was good but hands on practical was not.

By Stephen Muthami Mbunga on 7/23/2020

Love it so far.
