It is called a "safelight." The light is a yellowish brown color usually. Also, though it is a safelight, there are still some darkroom procedures that should be done in complete darkness, such as loading undeveloped film into a canister. Safelights are used in the printing process of darkroom Photography.

Does green and blue make yellow?

The answer to the question is NO. Recall the 3 primary colors, Red, Yellow, and BLUE. Recall what a Primary color is, "(a) color that has no other color to make it." So, knowing this you would know that Yellow and Green could not possibly make Blue. In fact Yellow and Green make a color similar to lime green or like baby poop green. Many people think that Yellow and Green make Blue but a Primary and a Secondary do Not make a Primary. So, next time you hear someone say that "Green and Yellow make Blue", correct them and tell them why.03/05/2010 addition: This is the primary color wheel of Pigment color (reflective light). It is Blue and Yellow that make Green.Umm, the 3 primary colors are red, green and blue. Yellow is a secondary color.03/05/2010 addition: This is the primary color wheel of Additive color (direct light). The answer is also NO.
