Wow I absolutely loved this final product
Super cool effect, and the music fits perfectly. I would love to see this replicated with a little higher clarity/focus, as there are some distracting bubbles in the foreground, although the colors are so vibrant that I barely notice them.
The neon colors of the glow sticks against the background is interesting. The rotational shear is captured well in the video.
This is trippy AF!! I think the chemiluminescence added to the aesthetic. I’m curious to see the report of how you did it?
This is an awesome video. The colors are awesome and you really get to see the flow. Focus is awesome, well done!
more anatomical imagery! A CT scan!
Beautiful colors… embrace the glitch!
This is wild. Music goes well with it. Love what you did and how you captured it. Can’t see anything I’d do differently. Really nice job.
The green structure sheared around :31 is really nice. I like the darty motions.
trippy and mesmerizing, I love your glitch edits and music choice. good job!
It’s interesting how the glow stick mixes with the soap and then the process is semi-reversed. The glow sticks chemical reaction adds a lot to the artistic side of the piece.
I wonder if you could acquire a flow apparatus that would help you to recreate the oil drop experiment.
Very cool video, love the color and music, the glow is very beautiful and the flow demonstration is vey interesting.
Great use of colors and fluorescent fluids. It looks like an alien invader or something. Great music too. Really nice overall.
The music really suits the imagery and the weird pulsing motions of the fluid. It might be a good idea to try to cut out the distortions in the video, though that does work with the aesthetic. The video is quite grainy, perhaps you could decrease the ISO gain to fix that. The contrast between the colors and the background is very nice.
I really like this video! The colors stand out and the music adds to the aesthetic of the music. It would be cool to see this from a different angle in the video as well. Well done!
Cool attempt at the experiment and it still looks good without the reversal. I think the framing is also pretty good.
Love how the fluid pauses and moves, pauses and moves. Embrace the glitching!! Totally adds something to the video. Great music – this is an excellent piece.
This video is very cool. I love how vibrant the colors are and the motion worked really well to show how the colors mix and move together. It looks mysterious and futuristic, the neon colors work very well.
Good definition in the video, the music fits really well and the dark negative space makes the colors really pop
I really enjoyed to watch this video with the cool music. I felt like I am watching movement of universe while i watch your video.
I really like the use of glow sticks. The colors are really pretty. I like the flow as well and the idea behind it. The music adds to it as well.
I really like the music choice for your video, it goes well with the flow. Great job illustrating the rotational flow using glow sticks and on the focus of your composition.
Excellent video, the lighting and focus was great, and the colors with the glow stick are super cool. The music also works well.
Beautiful flow visualization of the different colors. I wouldn’t change any aspect of this video.
Very cool idea. Love the flow physics and the ambition to use glow sticks. nice video
Interesting idea. The glowing flow was really cool. Everything was in focus, and the contrast was good. The videos had a few issues though.
Very cosmic effect. I really like the lighting and focus of the flow and physics involved.
Sweet video. The colors really give a cosmic feel to the flow. Reminds me of an aurora.
Love the aurora borealis sort of coloring in the video. Not crazy about the music, although the fluid motion you’ve captured is very interesting and captivating.
Nice colors and cool flow demonstration. I like how you inverted the colors near the end…I think you should add more of that.
The movement of the flow is really interesting to look at. It is kinda slow and jagged and that adds to the movement overall.
Really classic experiment redone with more fun colors, I like it
I really like the music you put with this video. I feel like it goes really well with the flow and creates an interesting effect.
Interesting concept for and well executed. It would be even more captivating if the entire rig was propped up in a way that kept it from moving.
