It happens when light hits the emulsion layer of the film, passes through, reflects off the film base and bounces back. Usually creating a reddish aura around highlights. It’s a beautiful imperfection, born from the physical limitations of celluloid. If you’re trying to understand what makes film look like film, halation is a big piece of the puzzle. But if you’re like me and like to break the rules: Try to shift the halation hue into the greens for something..well technically incorrect but somehow magically aesthetic.
