Why is the blue color used in flags and such called 'reflex blue'?
That's the name PANTONE gave it. An old pressman I know once told me it was because you have the reflexive urge to throw the can halfway across the room every time you see it...because Reflex Blue ink takes forever to dry if you put a lot of Grapho Dryer in it, and twice that long if you run it straight out of the can.

Give examples how RGB color encoding is used to represent images and colors?
The RGB color model is an additive color model in which red, green, and blue light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. The name of the model comes from the initials of the three additive primary colors, red, green, and blue.
To form a color with RGB, three colored light beams (one red, one green, and one blue) must be superimposed (for example by emission from a black screen, or by reflection from a white screen). Each of the three beams is called a component of that color, and each of them can have an arbitrary intensity, from fully off to fully on, in the mixture. The RGB color model is additive in the sense that the three light beams are added together, and their light spectra add, wavelength for wavelength, to make the final color's spectrum.
Zero intensity for each component gives the darkest color (no light, considered the black), and full intensity of each gives a white; the quality of this white depends on the nature of the primary light sources, but if they are properly balanced, the result is a neutral white matching the system's white point. When the intensities for all the components are the same, the result is a shade of gray, darker or lighter depending on the intensity. When the intensities are different, the result is a colorized hue, more or less saturated depending on the difference of the strongest and weakest of the intensities of the primary colors employed.
When one of the components has the strongest intensity, the color is a hue near this primary color (reddish, greenish, or bluish), and when two components have the same strongest intensity, then the color is a hue of a secondary color (a shade of cyan, magenta or yellow). A secondary color is formed by the sum of two primary colors of equal intensity: cyan is green+blue, magenta is red+blue, and yellow is red+green. Every secondary color is the complement of one primary color; when a primary and its complementary secondary color are added together, the result is white: cyan complements red, magenta complements green, and yellow complements blue.
What is the code of ginger color in pantone?
Color names are very subjective, thus the reason for the Pantone color matching system. The best way to find the color you want is to actually look at a Pantone swatch book. Colors can appear different depending on the monitor they are displayed on. It is always best to pick a color from a printed swatch book, this guarantees that you get the color you want.
What is the highest paying job in graphic design?
The Pond-Moonlight by Edward Steichen, taken on Long Island in 1904, broke the world record price for a photograph when it was sold for more than $2.9m (?1.67m) at a two-day Sotheby's sale which began in New York last night. The previous record for a photograph at auction, $1,248,000, was set in November by Richard Prince's "Untitled (Cowboy)". Steichen's 42cm by 40cm photograph, from the collection of the wealthy American industrialist Howard Gilman, is a dreamy, moonlit landscape with reflections of trees in a pond. As an image it is rather beautiful, bearing the impressionistic quality of early photography; an experiment exploring the limits of the photographic plate. Its fame reflects just how much the value of rare, early prints has increased. Steichen's work is sought after by private collectors - this is the kind of landscape that usually only museums can acquire. Only three prints of this photograph are known to exist. Two were held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York, which acquired the Gilman collection in 2005, and one of these is the one sold by Sotheby's. The third is in the Museum of Modern Art. So the Met has sold what is, in effect, a duplicate, making the final auction price all the more astonishing. The three prints were made under Steichen's supervision, and are a great example of a rare vintage photograph by an artist who had an influence on later 20th-century photographers such as Richard Avedon, whose work is also represented in the sale. Steichen's early painterly photographs, possibly naive to our image-soaked modern eyes, helped establish photography as an art form. From: CRI Online 2006-02-17 All the above is true, however, you asked what the highest paying job in photography is. The money is in advertising photography. Move to a major city. Get a job as a commercial advertising photographer's assistant. Learn how it works. The best advertising photographers have day rates of $20,000 and up, and can make millions. Those perfect photographs you see in magazine ads are very expensive. The highest paying job in the field of photography is CEO of Eastman Kodak.
Why do you need to understand color theory as a graphic designer?
Color is one of the basic elements in design. To use it successfully it is necessary to understand how humans perceive color, how color is reproduced, primary and secondary colors, contrasting and complimentary colors and how to find or create a specific color. A basic understanding of these areas will suffice.
Either kerning (space between a letter pair) or tracking (space between all the letter pairs in the selected area).
What kind of a job position can you get with an associate's degree in graphic design?
It depends on what quality of work you do. Walk into any self-respectable design firm with a kickass portfolio and it won't necessarily matter what degree you have. Your work will speak for itself. If you don't do great work, it won't matter what degree you have, you still won't get hired by the firm.
If, however, you intend to work in the corporate in-house design world where standards are often lower, a higher degree can be more helpful as these places tend to place more emphasis on education rather than on how good your work is.
Bottom line is...just do kickass work. If you feel that your Associates degree has not given you the foundation you need to do great work, then you might want to get a Bachelors or above. There are many great designers out there who do phenomenal conceptual work and have nothing more than an Associates. But there are just as many out there (or more) who do great work with a Bachelors. yes, as long as you have good art skills and understand marketing

If the individual serves only as a member of the Board of Directors then you would simply place their name on the first line, followed by Director immediately underneath their name.
James H. Doe
Director
If the individual serves as Chairman of the board, that means that they are already elected or appointed as a Director and there is no need to repeat that. So, restated, place their name on the first line and either Chairman or Chairman of the Board directly underneath.
James H. Doe
Chairman (or Chairman of the Board)
It will vary between companies as to which term to use. In my case, we allow the individual holding the position to decide if they want to use Chairman, Chairman of the Board. In the event the position is held by a woman, Chairperson/Chairwoman or Board Chair are also acceptable albeit less common.
Jane H. Doe
Chairwoman (or Board Chair)
