Article Title: Introducing the KineticGlass Filter: A Revolutionary Tool for Filmmakers and Photographers
In an exciting development for the world of filmmaking and photography, a new liquid-based special effects filter has hit the market: the KineticGlass filter. This innovative tool, created by an unnamed company, is generating buzz for its unique design and capabilities.
The KineticGlass filter consists of two optical glass elements bonded with a solvent-resistant adhesive, sandwiched inside an aluminum frame. This design allows for dynamic visual effects such as motion-induced distortions and creative image manipulations directly in-camera, making it highly versatile and expressive for creative storytelling.
To enhance the filter’s capabilities, accessories like the LumaTray and a rotating filter tray are available. The LumaTray is a modular filter tray system that holds the KineticGlass filter and allows quick swapping or layering with other filters. The rotating filter tray lets users twist or rotate the KineticGlass element to adjust the intensity and direction of the kinetic effects in real time, enhancing creative flexibility on set.
The LumaTray also provides customizable light for the KineticGlass filter, with control over color temperature, brightness, and direction using a smartphone app. A magnetic rotating tray is another accessory that allows users to easily rotate the filter to create moving special effects.
The space in the middle of the KineticGlass filter can be filled with various materials to create moving special effects. Examples of materials that can be used include glitter, water, alcohol, and materials from craft stores or liquor stores. The company selling the KineticGlass filter also sells vials of pre-tested materials to follow a recipe for a specific look.
The KineticGlass filter comes with tools such as a screwdriver, syringe, and a workspace to help creators fill the filter with different ingredients. It is available in a 138mm size meant for inserting into a matte box.

Currently, the KineticGlass filter is discounted to $600, and the KineticGlass filter, LumaTray, rotating filter tray, pouch, and an effect are available in one kit, currently discounted to $1,700. However, international pricing and availability for the KineticGlass kit have not yet been shared.

With the KineticGlass filter, filmmakers and photographers can explore new aesthetic possibilities directly in-camera without heavy post-production. Rumour has it that substances like rum, cabernet, and absinthe can create warming effects, pink tones, and the look of expired film when used in the KineticGlass filter.
This innovative filter is set to revolutionise the industry, offering a new dimension to storytelling through film and photography. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a hobbyist, the KineticGlass filter is an exciting addition to any creative toolkit.
