How to use TikTok’s viral Blue and Red filter
via ashlelnok / foodiefitnerd TikTokOne of TikTok’s biggest emerging trends revolves around the blue and red filter that gives people a creative way of acting out a two-person scene.
The biggest use of the filter has been based on the hit Broadway-musical-turned-movie, In The Heights. The filter gives people the chance to swap between a blue light that gives people facial fuzz, and a red one with feminine features with just a blink of the eye.
This way, any creator can use it to make a one-person show with plenty of users taking the formula and running with it for unique scenes.
Here’s everything you need to start tinkering with the blue and red TikTok filter, and some examples of how to put it to use.
