Organic Effects: Different Colours

This time i used a combination of red food colouring, white paint, glitter and glitter glue. The glitter when mixed with the paint water made some awesome effects as the glitter and liquid were shot into the tank. As the solution entered the tank the light reflected off the glitter making it sparkle which looked awesome.

Organic Effects: More experiments

This time I used these things called jelly marbles I got off my brother. The jelly marbles sit in water for a few days and then slowly absorb the surrounding water to create a jelly like.. marble.

I edited the colours again and flipped some of the clips to see if it looked more alien in a different way.

First Attempt: Organic Visual Effects.

Above is the end result of my first attempt at re creating some of these organic effects. There are more details in the description on YouTube. but essentially:


1. Boil 200 ml of salt in water for 20 minutes. Repeat for stronger concentrations.

2. Clean tank, blemishes can show up in the film

3. Collect items, food colouring, cornflower, paint, pipets (for shooting into the tank)

4. Fill the tank with as much salt water as you want

5. Push in a bin bag and then slowly add fresh water
6. Remove the bin bag VEEEEEEERY carefully and if done right you can see the different layers of fresh and salt water.

The results were really good for a first attempt and I edited the colours in places they weren't as vibrant.
Next time im going to change the salt water concentration to see if this changes the outcome.
