I received a couple of DM& #39;s from developers asking about what resources I recommend to learn more about color science.
Here& #39;s a thread with some of my favourite resources.

The first resource that I can& #39;t recommend enough is https://hg2dc.com/
This">https://hg2dc.com/">... website is from my partner in crime on all color related endeavours @troy_s He& #39;s not only very knowledgeable but also loves helping people get a better understand on all topics color related.

Now hands down the most useful presentation out there is this one from Timothy Lottes

Timothy">https://gpuopen.com/wp-conten... was quite far ahead of the curve in a lot of aspects and this presentation is packed with good information.

The other presentation I found immensely useful and would advise everyone to study very closely is the one from @nikq

Alex Fry& #39;s presentation about the work done with HDR in Frostbite is also highly recommended

When I first started looking for resources on this topic, I ran into a great set presentations from @hpduiker

These 2 links from AMD are a bit more advanced but give you an overall idea of how they approached gamut mapping:

When it comes to books, I would highly recommend "Digital Color Management: Encoding Solutions, Second Edition"
While I don& #39;t agree with the concept of using a per-channel approach, I do understand why the authors did propose it back when the book was written/released.

I also thoroughly enjoyed the book from @frabante "Image Content Retargeting
Maintaining Color, Tone, and Spatial Consistency"
While I do find that some of the concepts from the book are not easy to translate directly into code, there& #39;s still a lot of useful info contained...

in the book to make it very a very worthwhile read.
A nice complement to the previous two books is "Measuring Colour, Fourth Edition" by Hunt and Pointer.
This book is not as easy to read as the other 2 but it complements their info on several topics.

A lot of good info can also be found here https://chrisbrejon.com/cg-cinematography/">https://chrisbrejon.com/cg-cinema... despite being less of an engineering oriented explanation.
There& #39;s also a couple of other resources that I& #39;ve read in the past at some point:
