The music and sound design for all your videos is so beautiful. I love this effect too.

[@ShanksFX1]

Daniel Neutzsky-Wulff How do you make the cool text at the end? With the flickering effect. Check out our "LIGHT PAINTING" episode and you will find out :-))

[@xa2x]

Thank you for sharing, this is truly wonderful. I was wondering if you used UV lights and a kind of UV colorants on both of your videos ? Anyway keep up your videos, this is a real blossoming for our eyes :) Adeline.

[@taxlife1]

This is beautiful and amazing.

[@Jones1350]

Very nice, I love practical effects. You created some beautiful imagery. I look forward to trying this!

[@chadj.w.anderson5473]

Love your work man. And I appreciate that you show all the messy bits too.

[@andrewluisbaker]

Favorite part face at 3:33. I came from Nofilmschool and loved this video so much I came over and liked it.

[@ShanksFX1]

That milk can get gross if you leave it over night!!! Love NO FILM SCHOOL, honored that they featured us!!

[@SHOPETSY]

Soooo clever, effective and just beautiful. Ethereal cosmos! Thanks 🙏 for sharing.

[@hiwayM9]

Very cool- it incites me to wonder what glass rods of various diameters would do with the light if they were side lit and suspended, or clamped directly underneath the glass pane while you worked your liquid viscosity visuals... they would add a refractive effect that may be very dynamic - especially if the sidelight were an LED that changed colors as it traveled down the glass.

[@ShanksFX1]

Love where your heads at Hiway!!!

[@hiwayM9]

Gee- thanks, but according to my ex wife, it resides where there is a general lack of light- specifically sunlight.

[@Bakamanzz]

This is pretty damn simple yet very great effect, bookmarking this for future references.

[@mirona42882]

this might just be the most beautiful clip I've seen all year! :) kudos!

[@FunkeBas]

This is very inspirational, thanks for sharing your style and methods :-)

[@TK42138]

Strangely hypnotic to watch.

[@francescosiro]

It's an amazing idea and video. I love soundesign and the feeling .... Great!

[@YaBoiSnick]

i think your one of the most creative youtubers ive seen crazy vids man!

[@ShanksFX1]

Thanks for the kinds words, I appreciate that, keep watching and we will keep making them!!

[@YaBoiSnick]

will do man

[@Daldi564]

Dude that looks awesome! Love your videos. My favourite is your lightsaber video

[@calvinteh3297]

Your work is always so amazing. Looks better than those CGI effects. More natural somehow. More organic. May I ask what's the title of the song you used from Big Fok?

[@ShanksFX1]

It's called "ESCAPISM"

[@eladbari]

super amazing! just wondering how the camera work was made... if it was shot as a video using a special jib// or if it was shot on stills mode timelapse, and the camera move was all done in post..

[@rustyrehl6303]

This is truly wonderful.

[@GodandDaniel]

Best one yet!!

[@arendr]

Great one, Joey!

[@AmiableStephenJoseph]

I must confess, I really love this. I have great passion for film-making, just don't know how to go about it. I haven't started handling cameras. For now, I am just creating short video clips using Proshow, Premier Pro. Not so good at those software's. I need a guideline on how to go about getting started, and the right platforms to use. Thanks!

[@drchayus]

wow. you make the most joyously awesome how-to videos!

[@dannyhood66]

The music alone shreds!, i watched over 3 times now and bookmarked , , Im outta here see ya wouldnt want be ya total escapism! hey you! yeah you! Come back!!!

[@kavimontanaro7976]

Thanks for your generosity in sharing your techniques. Very beautiful work. Now please go buy yourself a mop!

[@ShanksFX1]

Haha, good call!!! Thanks for watching!!!

[@vikingtyty]

Awesome. This would go great with my bands music videos

[@danielneutzsky-wulff8911]

How do you make the cool text at the end? With the flickering effect.

[@calvinteh3297]

Your work is amazing!

[@TheIntrospectre]

Very creative. Keep it up!

[@CraigBaurleyDanceMovementFilms]

What kind of spotlight are you using for this? I'm trying to do a similar effect and am shopping around for lights.

[@MrMonkeyDeamond]

i love your KZbin channel! keep up the good work these all look sick

[@adrianbenedictmendoza6818]

Whats the dust particles.. is that a paper i can buy somewhere? sir? :) btw You inspired us a lot...

[@classnerdz]

Just awesome

[@trashlids4592]

what was the paper you used to create the dust particles of the stars?

[@samdavis3700]

Awesome channel!

[@KKAkuoku]

Can the same effect be acheived using clear plastic sheeting? Just for safety matters, you understand.

[@ShanksFX1]

I think so, but I think glass reflects light better. But if safety is you're concern, plastic will work.

[@AndyTalesTV]

Awesome!

[@ali.maher2009]

WOW!!! amazing ... awesome ... you did a very good job man !! ... i want to see more :)

[@painfulllsound]

great job!

[@amoraampersand]

Shanks for watching!

[@InsertNicknameHereee]

Amazing stuff! May I ask what you're using the hydrogen peroxide for?

[@Quetzalcoatl0]

can i ask what lens was used and what is the extender (tri-pod)

[@christian_spies]

What lens do you use in this process?

[@SeakittenCollective]

Do you use real glass or plexiglass?

[@williamchains]

can someone tell me what porpuse does the hydroxide peroxide has?

[@PurpleTurf]

This is awesome!

[@zach_blackburn]

How do you do the text for the credits alos?

[@Farmfield]

Very cool stüff, Joey. As a digital artist I must say I so, so enjoy the analog approach. Awesome work mate. Edit: Did you try using multiple panes to create parallax? Might be tricky to light, but could be a cool way to create some additional depth... :)

[@ShanksFX1]

I have briefly, but next extremely thin glass to pull of something like that, but def worth trying if I ever come across the right materials.

[@MrEMT4466]

Hey how about if the producers decided to make another Planet of the Apes especially if they decided to do scene in which astronauts traveling into interstellar or galactic space to use the techniques to replicate star or galactic travel. Who knows I might do it myself.

[@RWpaintball]

Hey awesome video! what lens were you using for this?

[@ShanksFX1]

Used a Canon 100mm Macro and a Tokina 11-16mm Wide Angle, Wide Angle is a lot trickier but if you can get it right, the increased depth of field really makes the effect that much better!!!

[@Agirllovesainging]

so beautiful

[@KaroSadowska]

Whoaaaaa this is amazing! :D

[@reggietelly]

First of all thanks for sharing this. It has inspired me greatly and I have set up a rig and glass sheet with a mirror angled at 45º to do some similar stuff. I have some Hydrogen Peroxide but I am not getting quite the same results as your brilliant stuff. What strength did you use. I have 6%. Do you think this is enough?

[@ShanksFX1]

Try rubbing alcohol but be careful with what u mix with it.

[@moezeehulk]

Shanks FX what is the thick liquid that you used at min 1:32 , because i think this is what helps make the colors moves natural in time laps ?

[@Campenella]

+moe zee condenced milk

[@moezeehulk]

Chris Cuthrell thank you

[@NDK101]

Download the SHANKSFX soundtrack from Big Fok here: bigfok.bandcamp.com/album/creating-the-cosmos

[@Aizeicez]

what is hydrogen peroxide for? , can i just use water?

[@MikeAuerNixego]

QUALITY!

[@StephenVStone]

Very Cool.

[@ShanksFX1]

SV2 in the house!!! Check out this guys channel, he's working on an independent IMAX film called "In Saturn's Rings". Using all real photographs!!! Stephen van Vuuren Can't wait to see it on the huge screen!!

[@MillsProductions]

Music?

[@ShanksFX1]

Artist is BIG FOK , sound is - Escapism , u can find more of his stuff on SOUNDCLOUD

[@MillsProductions]

awesome thanks! your videos are incredible!

[@KenWard2015]

Thanks, teacher :-)

[@alceofx]

great!!!!!!!!! very good! very rock!!! by Alien Rock !!

[@penguinboy247]

Looks like you might want to invest in getting some non slip shoes.

[@ShanksFX1]

Tell me about it !!!

[@diragusa]

Now do you mix the hydrogen peroxide with the milk, then add soap to make the reaction? Im just not getting the same reaction. A more concise instruction to get reactions would help. Although my macro lens isn't as powerful as yours. hmmm.

[@Prelimpim]

as above, so below!

[@DashaBukarinova]

Создание своего Космоса!

[@HELLADJ]

[@vidhyadharnani]

You are the present generation Douglas Trumbull

[@Native_Creation]

This is similar to what they did for The Fountain.

[@ShanksFX1]

Love "The Fountain" , would be sweet if Aronofsky uses some of those elements in his upcoming film NOAH.

[@Native_Creation]

Shanks FX That would be extremely awesome to see, definitely looking forward to the new film.

[@hangoutinkorea]

I peed on the pants. This is third time while I'm watching this video

[@zingo_man]

[@ShanksFX1]

[@ByNF]

[@cillyhoney1892]

Good lord, why are you using paper towels to clean the floor? Get a mop! That's what they're made for!
