It mostly looks like "normal" black and white if you don't see people's faces and eyes and lips in particular, which look very different in IR, and also one thing you might only notice if you knew what was being shot is how a lot of clothing appears white or whiteish instead of the color it actually was, including black clothing, which is often really weird. Like my completely black backpack turns completely white in IR photos, except for a few patches where a different material is used which is considerably less reflective to IR light, so it's a lot darker in the images.

I always thought IR photography was a very effective way to turn anything "otherworldy". Dune 2 applied that very well. Your footage is amazing. I wish we could see more people playing with IR more often :)

Skin color or sunscreen don't really have that much of an effect on IR photography. UV, though, is a different story - skin pigmentation (including freckles) gets a lot more pronounced effect and sunscreen tends to look like black shoe polish.

I know nothing about photography, but something in my gut told me that the black and white in Dune was somehow special, so thank you for enlightening me. I'm now a huge fan of this style of photography, and hope to see more of it in the future!

I recognized the infrared footage because of the previous videos I watched on your channel! Keep up the good work bro

As always your videos are spectacular, thank you for taking us through this wonderful cinematic journey !

Insane video ! Thanks for all the tips

What a great experiment! The way the body changes during pregnancy is incredible and the IR shot captures the magnitude of that.

This is a fascinating tutorial on subtractive color processing and using monochromatic "film" to capture the result. Very similar to the earliest color film processes. I will be using portions in my physics classes.

The shots with the tree leaves are STUNNING. I hope to see this technique used in more film!

Motion looks incredible in IR. Adjusting the speed is an inspired choice. I want to see a feature length film shot like this, from the perspective of alien visitors to Earth.

This was breath taking!

J'ai adoré ce passage dans le film. Et voir notre monde comme s'il était éclairé par un soleil noir, c'est vraiment trop beau. Merci.

That was very awesome and inspiring! Gotta look up a way to strip IR filter of my own.

That's amazing how that camera setup makes everyday life feel so alien. awesome and infromative video.

Surprenante vidéo, bravo Mathieu pour les fotos et félicitation pour le bébé !

This looks amazing!!

I'm surprised "glowing" eyes weren't a problem. They seem way more reflective in NIR than in visible light and I've never seen them without some bad (infra)red-eyes effect.

Your short film is simply stunning. If I could suggest any topic for a future video, it would be a time-lapse, particularly of clouds. Infrared makes them pop more, which makes it ideal.

Been playing around with full spectrum and IR photography for a few years, it's always fascinating. One thing that's also rather interesting is that IR light tends to cut through the atmospheric haze a lot better than visible light, so you get a lot more distant visibility in IR. I shot some photos from an airplane when flying on a vacation and it's like looking at a completely different world, with the far visibility and very contrasting rivers and lakes.

Beautiful and inspiring footage!

Otherworldly indeed. So good!

I remember trying IR film 55 years ago. Cameras back then had an infrared focus adjustment symbol on the lens. I assume modern digital cameras take care of this automatically. At the time I worked in a film lab and could experiment with all kinds of alternative processing experiments like printing B&W negatives on color paper or running color or B&W film through slide film chemistry. Some of the results were remarkable, but sometimes cross contamination would occur. I had to make sure to play with these things just before a scheduled chemical change. Infrared was always surprising. Fun times. Beautiful video.

6:05 definitely looks surreal. Nice work.

What's cool about taking photos or videos in the IR spectrum is if you look at TV remotes or ceramic stove tops is that they are transparent. Which makes sense, since heat radiation is also in the IR spectrum, so the in the visible light spectrum blacked out glass of the stove top is completely transparent for higher wavelengths. You can see the heat coils and the electronics underneath that are usually hidden to the naked eye. Also TV remotes often still use IR signals, while they now don't seem to have that little window any more where the LED was hidden. Now the make the intransparent casing of the hole remote transparent in the IR spectrum, so that you can see through and see the batteries and things inside, too. Looks surreal.

Cool effect. Just remember to make sure your shutter speed matches the fps of the video. The trains have a jump every second where they software is missing a frame.

Le rendu est dingue 😍

Superb! I'd be curious to see how things look in color with the other filters as well.

I had my Canon G12 altered for IR720 around 12 years ago by LifePixel. I have almost forgotten about it since 2020 but this video made me remember how fun it was to shoot with that camera. I should bring it out of the dry cabinet again.

Excellent!! Thanks for sharing.

I remember hearing a few years ago that archaeologists were using IR and UV photos combined together to read ancient papyrus writing that had faded too much to see in regular light. Since then, I've wondered what one could do with IR and UV photos of pictograms and petroglyphs that might be too faded to see in regular light. I'm thinking specifically of ancient petroglyphs from the American West, but any ancient painting, writing or carving on stone would be neat to see and potentially enlightening for the archaeological community.

Looks great. A super simple (and now cheap) non-destructive alternative to shoot “cinema infrared” is with any Red DSMC2 camera and a kippertie full spectrum OLPF.

Very cool footage... seeing it as video is makes for some amazing landscapes. I did this to my Nikon D90 decades ago, after originally shooting Kodak IR film. It is a fun effect, but you have to use it carefully so the effect doesn't overwhelm the subject matter. You got it just right. Cheers.

An early and successful use of IR filmmaking was the climactic battle scene in the movie _Alexander_ (2004) -- Indeed, doing it the hard way: on celluloid, exterior shooting, and during hot days (the film had to be kept refrigerated.) _American Cinematographer_ magazine of that year featured a fascinating article detailing its special problems and handling.

Fantastic. Thanks

Would be fascinating to blend IR with the visible spectrum. Especially for prey and hunter cinematic, as most preditors can look further into IR than we can. You would need a full-spectrum camera and filter in a digital format like fourier order waveform. For pure IR it's definitely architecture and pictures of body. The proportions are so much clearer.

That's so cool looking

Some plants, especially bee-pollinated flowers, can exhibit additional patterns under NIR imaging. Also, banknotes often have IR countermeasures built in, such as patterns of blanks spaces under IR imaging.

FWIW, exposed photography film works as a visible light filter, and you can usually get small pieces for free anywhere film is developed.

The vista of the poeple on the stairs at 08:04 is one of the most captivating wide angle shots I have seen. I want that as a poster on my wall. Strangly there doesn't seem to be that much in the frame but everything can... breathe. I'm addicted to this. Cudos.

I'd love to see some experiments in the next video where you transition the same shot from visible light to infrared. One of the highlights for me of the Geidi Prime scene is when the Bene Gesserit's robes turn from glossy black in visible light to that striking and stark white in infrared.

I shot a role of 35mm IR film back in school, it was a hassle but interesting. It would be nice to see how your camera handles glass windows or glass cups? Also a group of people with different skin colours. A nice psycho effect might be a stereo view camera, one lens with your IR modification the other len normal, while switching or fading back and forth.

Beautiful hauntinglike pictures and video, thank you! I guess I could get a similar anamorphic result with a shift/tilt lens? I really should go and see the Dune part 2 movie before it disappears from the theatre...

@StephenStrangways

Ай бұрын

It depends on what you think the anamorphic effect is. If you think it's the horribly blurry left and right edges of the frame, that's not really the look of anamorphic lenses used for movies - that's the look of a low-quality anamorphic adapter.

That makes me want to take my IR camera with me on my trip tomorrow :-)

That's pretty dope
