Shades of Perception - The Effect of Coloured Filters on What We See

In this fun animation, you will learn how light behaves when it passes through a coloured filter. The video uses different coloured sunglasses to explain that coloured filters allow only certain colours of light to transmit through them. It delves into the science of colour separation, showing through explainers and experiments how light is either absorbed or passed through different coloured lenses. Alongside the science of light and vision, the animation encourages students to think about the practical uses of coloured lenses, and how they may help us function in our everyday life. Discussion breaks are incorporated for students to observe and make their own analogies throughout the video and a fun activity at the end to encourage practical application and experimentation.
