Fluorescence

[Ar Splujer]

Hi everyone,
I tried yesterday, for the first time, doing some fluorescence.

Here is what I filmed. 

It wasn't completly dark so I could probably get better colors. 
But, it wasn't like I saw it. I don't know what I could to do to do it better. Any advice please ? Anywere I could find some informations about it ?
Thanks everyone.

Never tried myself but there are a lot of resources out there that probably you already saw, I guess. 

Is it a Mediterranean Cerianthus membranaceus?

 

Did you see the incredible video from Marcelo Johan Ogata?

Whao ! This is incredible, thanks. 
I'm gonna look at it further. 
I would be happy to know which filters he's using for it. Same for the lights.

Hey @Ar Splujer

 

That's incredible.  Where did you shoot this?  I've seen some resources online, I'll have a peek tonight and have a look for you.

 

Well done, love this 🙂

Thank you Maria :) That was just a first try. I didn't had the yellow infra filter on my lens. I did put the yellow glasses in from of the flat port just to see if it worked.

I filmed that in "little Brittany", west part of France Atlantic, so you could probably do the same I think.

Hi @Ar Splujer,

thanks for sharing your experience, I have tried without a success !! 

Can you describe your light setup, please?

Thanks,

Hi @Cutbacks_Ericeira !
I can't say I suceeded but let say there is hope.

 

So I tried with my bigblue 10k lumen CB and a blue filter.

And sometimes I tried with an other bigblue I have, 3500p supreme. And I think it's better with this last one. I like to use the snoot for macro filming. And with this 10 degree halo, it works better.
But what I really would like is a blue snoot filter. But I don't think it exist yet.

I've been deep diving in his videos since and they are all very incredible.
I really like the one hour chill videos. 
I'm always scared to bore people with videos that are more than 3mn. I'm gonna think about it again.
Thanks for that Davide :)

I did not think about it first but you can have a blue light and use a snoot on it. 
I don't have one at the moment so I put a blue filter on CB10000, but I can't put a snoot on the filter...
