<h1 id="steel_wash">steel_wash</h1>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="description">Description</h2>
|
|
<p>Applies a cool steel-blue wash across the entire video image.<br />
|
|
The effect evokes the feel of industrial lighting, cold metal surfaces, or desaturated cinematic palettes often seen in sci-fi, dystopian, and neo-noir aesthetics.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="purpose">Purpose</h2>
|
|
<p><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">steel_wash</code> is designed for creators who want:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>a clean, cool-toned chromatic shift,</li>
|
|
<li>a desaturated metallic aesthetic,</li>
|
|
<li>a simple and reliable grading filter with no parameters,</li>
|
|
<li>a cohesive blue wash to unify mismatched footage,</li>
|
|
<li>a subtle but distinctive look that enhances atmosphere and mood.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="how-it-works">How It Works</h2>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><strong>Global Blue Bias</strong><br />
|
|
Shadows, midtones, and highlights are shifted toward cold steel-blue coloration.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Desaturation Layer</strong><br />
|
|
Other hues are reduced, allowing the steel tone to dominate.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Contrast Conditioning</strong><br />
|
|
Mild tonal shaping prevents the image from becoming flat while maintaining the cold aesthetic.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Encoding</strong><br />
|
|
Final output is encoded using global Videobeaux codec, CRF, and pixel-format settings.</li>
|
|
</ol>

<h2 id="technical-notes">Technical Notes</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Works particularly well with nighttime, industrial, mechanical, or urban footage.</li>
|
|
<li>Skin tones take on a stylized, pale-blue cast — ideal for sci-fi or dystopian moods.</li>
|
|
<li>High-saturation footage will be subdued; low-saturation footage becomes more cohesive.</li>
|
|
<li>Compression interacts minimally with the wash due to its uniformity.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="recommended-usage">Recommended Usage</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Neo-noir or cyberpunk scenes.</li>
|
|
<li>Cold, metallic grading for music videos.</li>
|
|
<li>Industrial montage or mechanical close-ups.</li>
|
|
<li>Consistent color unification before collage or Lagkage layouts.</li>
|
|
<li>Atmospheric shifting before applying more intense glitch effects.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="quality-tips">Quality Tips</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Lower CRF preserves subtle gradients in blue-toned areas.</li>
|
|
<li>Higher CRF introduces grit that enhances industrial textures.</li>
|
|
<li>Combine with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">bad_contrast</code> for harsher, high-impact steel tones.</li>
|
|
<li>Pair with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">ghostee</code> or <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">slight_smear</code> for dreamy industrial softness.</li>
|
|
<li>Apply before LUTs to let your LUT react to the steel wash; apply after to preserve LUT integrity.</li>
|
|
</ul>
