How do filmmakers/artists make a bright/blinding white compared to a normal white?
In: Technology
Contrast. If a scene is largely dark, a bright spot will appear brighter than if that brightness were to fill the whole screen. Likewise if a scene is dark and then cuts to a completely white screen, our eyes will have to adjust to the change in brightness, and it will appear brighter than it actually is.
Cameras produce an effect of fringes (or feathers) of light extending from the borders of bright areas in an image, contributing to the illusion of an extremely bright light overwhelming the camera or eye capturing the scene.
In computer graphics, it’s called **bloom**
