This flow visualization example shows liquid chlorophyll being dropped into a room temperature glass of water and dispersing over approximately a minute. Made on September 7, 2022 for Flow Visualization class, Image Video 1 assignment. Lit from right of the frame by powerful non-LED light.

What made you chose chlorophyll over other mixers like food dye?
I really like how unpredictable the movement of the chlorophyll was, I like how it settled and was really dark at the bottom but clear at the top.
As an answer to your question, I think this works best as a video since there is a lot of amazing movement that can only be captured with a video.
I would have loved to see the entire glass so that we can see what is happening with the mixing at the very bottom of the glass.
Since you took 3 takes, what drew you specifically to using this one as your final product? What did you like/dislike about your other takes?
I really enjoyed the large amount of chlorophyll used in this video. Often times I see videos with one or two drops but you did a great job using a larger amount of chlorophyll as it seems to fill up the glass as it disperses and becomes the full subject of the video.
I really like the way the chlorophyll slowly oscillates in the bottom of the glass for a long while.
The music went really well with the video, especially at the beginning. The music felt like drops of water (or chlorophyll), and this paired nicely.
