Netflix Original Perfectly Replicates Psychedelic Trip Via Swirly Filter And Silly Colors

Published Friday, September 27th, 2024

After extensive research into psychoactive effects, the new Netflix Original series Wild Girls has completely accurately portrayed a psychedelic trip with the use of silly filters and crazy colors.

“We’re gonna start the scene with some slightly dizzying music, then we throw a swirl filter onto the faces of every character who’s tripping,” said Lance Bates, head of the show’s visual effects team, switching to a swirly wobbly fish eye effect to really replicate the disorienting physical, mental, and emotional effects of a psychedelic trip. “We’ll add some purple spirals in the background and BAM! Instant shroom trip.”

“We’re thinking about putting in a big puppet too, which will represent the mystic figure of Baphomet whom the characters speak to in the psychedelic plane,” continued Bates, adding a blur transition while the characters tottered around the screen, obviously in the middle of a psychedelic trip. “Finally, we’re gonna add a big blue orb, and then really turn up the silly colors. It’s gonna be perfect.”

At press time, another Netflix film was portraying a near-death experience by blacking out the screen and playing a slight buzzing noise.
