Colour grading this video was a nightmare! I've got as close as I can to the real colour - Stuart gave me a small pot of the pigment to take home! - but it's just not quite there. It's not more saturated, it's not brighter, it's just... a tiny bit more pink, somehow.
Tom Scott Now I'm disappointed I can't see the colour, what I'm looking at doesn't exist in the real world ha.
Tom Scott so it would require a 10bit camera, edit, grade and display to accurately show this pink, I assume?
Tom Scott Looks pretty pink and luminous to me...

"Loveliest blue" what happened to bluest blue??
It's too depressing.
Anish Kapoor owns it
i’ve seen bluer
I think it’s because the rest of the colours are available in neon form but you can’t really say the same for blue
Probably because "blue" can mean sad, so it ended up sounding like the saddest blue

This has been a huge source of hilarious drama in the art community.
After Anish Kapoor stuck his middle finger in pink as pink, Stewart Semple produced a pigment shown in the video, diamond dust. This pigment is made out of super finely crushed glass... meaning, Anish cannot stick his middle finger in it without being in a considerable amount of pain.
Where did I learn this? I knew this fact as well but can't seem to find it.
Sooo diamond dust is volcanic ash?
And Mr Kapoor was right in any way.
@@2manynathans I believe some the Kapoor/Semple stuff was mentioned on an episode of QI?
@@FTfilm Yes. He would be right to have a bloody middle finger.
I just got this pigment. It REALLY is hard to explain how pink it is. On its own, it just POPS. Like, I have ALL sorts of fluorescent colors, and the most fluorescent pink I owned before this now looks magenta next to it.
But under a blacklight, this pigment literally looks glitch-in-the-matrix level of pink.
does it glow?

I'm getting the impression here that it would...hurt your eyes, almost vaguely similar sensations to staring at the Sun, how overwhelming and slightly painful that looks and feels.

As a painter regularly trying to photograph my paintings I can attest to the fact that digital devices really struggle to accurately depict many colours. Not to mention tones.
That's a whole separate mess. Even if all the colors in your painting are within the gamut of reproducible ones, cameras will record them incorrectly and, in many cases, they will be impossible to correct.

Have you watched the 21 minute video on the colour brown that basically says it doesn't exist (without context)?
Search RUclips, 'Brown; color is wierd'
Oh I like you you little rebel!
As a floral designer, the most frustrating part about immortalizing my works with digital photography is the inability of screens to accurately depict the subtlest nuances and shifts in luminosity and glow that flower colors have to them. I’m guessing the pinkest pink is like flowers: luminous and multidimensional.
I photograph artworks professionally and there are a lot of factors! At my shop we adjust something like 500 color values for each artwork we photograph, there is no camera in the world that can replicate color perfectly - so how you process the photo can make a huge difference. And then of course the screen... thats a whole separate thing that also needs to be high quality and calibrated - often on 2000+ colors. And then you also lack how the light changes and you look at 3d objects from different directions, which informs our internal mental idea of what the colors "are"
Pinkest pink is simply outside of the color gamut of monitors. Google "srgb vs Adobe rgb vs pro photo color gamut" moat monitors are not even 100% srgb so their color range is actually very limited
This explains why you can sometimes take a picture of something super colorful, like a sunset, and it feels like the camera just doesn't do it justice.

Giving an artist exclusive access to an art material is the stupidest thing ever.
Tom: You can't see this color of pink from your screen.
Me: This is clever marketing.
It would be clever marketing, it it wasn't absolutely true. Many pigments are colours that reside outside the 'pixel colour triangle' of the standard RGB camera or screen. there are several reds that are redder than anything current technology can show us, and blues, and greens. for 99% of applications, what your screen shows you is enough.. but artists exist where screens don't need to be. and THAT is the point of the video, I think.
Tashkiira
No, it is clever marketing because they are showing you something you can’t see.
It would make a lot of people want to buy these ‘coloriest colors’ and the ‘glitteriest glitter’ because they want to experience it for themselves.
It would be as if you say, that no matter what, you could never take a proper picture of the Eiffel Tower for some reason. And that the Eiffel Tower can only be experienced in person.
For many people, travelling around the world doesn’t make sense as pictures and video can capture what you could have done anyways so why waste the money?
Here though, they have pictures, and the have video, but no matter what, you can not ever experience the experience without buying it yourself.
THAT is clever marketing.
@@freddykrueger8076 You're implying Tom is shilling for them, though. He's not. BECAUSE he's not shilling, but actually trying to explain a fact, *even if the person producing these profits*, it's not marketing, as far as Tom is concerned, so Tom is not engaged in marketing.
Now, SEMPLE could be called out for marketing, he's actually profiting (via exposure) from this (the whole 'pinkest pink' deal was an amusing viral concept a while back, and teasing Anish Kapoor was a definite dig and marketing strategy), but while he's definitely running a business, he's also an artist, and I think a big part of what the whole line of colours is about is literally getting the high-end pigments into the hands of those artists that need them. Most artists no longer make their own paints and pigments, for better or for worse, and Semple is willing to supply them to others at a very reasonable cost. 4 pounds for 2 ounces of high-end professional grade art pigments is dirt cheap. Marketing isn't a particular focus for him, other than occasionally acting as the face for his brand (Culture Hustle is the actual studio/company; Semple's the leader of the studio but that only goes so far).

Ty artist for making some really cool stuff/colors ^_^
The question I've always had: are all pixel displays just as vibrant as each other and only depend on how bright they are? Or do some pixel technologies create more vibrant colors at any brightness?
Definitely not the same, if you look up there are color scales wich are applied to screens, this is extremely important for people who work on graphic design, video editing, etc.
If you’ve ever been on a Caribbean cruise and looked at the water between islands, you’ll understand this. It is so blue that it is indescribable. Truly the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.
@🆑🅾️UT
Nah, it probably is the same.
Standard monitors have very limited cyans. A somewhat more expensive monitor can produce much more saturated cyan, but it's hard to find digital content which uses those colors (it could be encoded with negative red, but that trick only works mathematically not with actual light).
Try to find an on-screen color that matches a peacock feather - you can't quite do it.
What's happening is that the RGB primary colors don't exactly match the LMS cones in your eye. A "pure" blue activates all three cones, etc. Since all three cones are activated, it's theoretically possible to find more saturated colors in nature.
(This is especially true for the primary green.)
In fact, the monochromatic colors - all photons have almost the same wavelength - are the purest colors which exist. The yellow from a diffraction grating is much more yellow than a yellow on a computer screen.
But even the monochromatic colors activate more than one cone at once. (Deep red is closest to only activating one cone.)
Optical illusions can do a little bit better than nature. If you make one kind of cone tired and then look at a complimentary color, it can seem to be just a bit more intense than any natural color.
@🆑🅾️UT good, im glad they did, really helps explain why you're wrong
Or if you visit Ireland, the greens in the countryside are indescribably green. They don't even fully translate when you take a photo of them. They are the greenest greens that ever greened.
Pop it under a spectrometer and gives us the results. Than use the measured spectrum to generate the values that do represent this pink (even though they might be larger than 255 or smaller than 0). Using that generate an image using that pink and some colour correction methods (gamut mapping comes to mind) to force the pink into showable values. The resulting image will not contain the actual pink, however it will gives us an idea of how different it is to other colours which will look washed out in the corrected image.
I like your thinking here.
