This video is of colored oil dropping into a clear beaker of water. The oil is colored with powdered food coloring so that the coloring particles fall out of the oil and create cool smoke-like effects in the water. The last visualization in the video is made with a bottle of spray cleaner solution to add micro-bubbles to the water.

I really appreciate the amount of content you were able to capture. Something that I think would be helpful would be to add very brief text summaries as new fluids / methods are introduced. I like the uplighting choice.
This is a fantastic video. I really like how much coverage you have of different combinations of the fluids that you introduce to the water. The variation of angles helps give a strong grasp of what’s going on in these flows.
I love the colors in this image! I also like how you used the same setup to show different fluid interactions.
Thanks for including a video to show how the injection of the cleaner solution changes over time. The lighting is great and captures the color well!
Really like how it goes from discrete colorful droplets at the beginning, but transitions to something that more resembles a jellyfish at 0:48. Shows a lot of different fluid interactions and the lighting is great!
