Film simlulation recipe using classic negative for cream, green and orange tones.
In my work on film simulation recipes, I sometimes find that food names seem to fit the looks that I create. An example is Soft Cinnamon, which has a cinnamon colour tone. I’m drawn again to a food reference for this new film recipe, because again there’s a colour pallete tone that reminds me of food.
I’m sure you are familiar with Apple Strudel, with its apple and cinnamon filling, and peachy golden pastry crust. There’s a mix of soft green and orange tones in this fabulous treat, which are both evident in the images taken with this film recipe.
Because of its fondness for orange tones, it’s a great choice around the fall for autumn colours, or in general when there’s a golden tone, such as around sunset in the golden hour. At other times, images are warmed, and neutral stake on a creamy look, like a splach of vanilla sauce, just like you get served with a strudel.
