⭐ Q&A LIST BELOW:

💧 More info on the pigments?
🌿 these pigments are an exclusive collaboration between Choosing Keeping and a lovely pigment store called Saiun-do in Japan. I've talked about these pigments more extensively in my other recent videos as well.

💧Gloves & Respirator?
🌿 YES. I should 100000% be wearing gloves and a mask. If I wasn't filming I would have. However, the last time I wore gloves in a paintmaking video, the sound of the gloves were unpleasant to listen to to many people. I decided for the sake of the video to omit them. However, yes. Gloves are very necessary especially if you are not working with pigments specifically made for Nihonga paintings.

💧 Why add honey?
🌿 this step is optional but i prefer to add it since it gives the paints a nice texture. it will also preserve moisture.

💧 Filming Equipment?
🌿 Camera: Sony A7rIV
Lens: Sony - FE 24-105mm F4 G
Mic: Sennheiser MKE 600
Tripod: Slik Pro 500 DX

💧 Why don't the pigments fit back in after crushing them?
🌿 (Someone more knowledgeable, please correct me if I'm wrong) I'm assuming it's because the pigments were much more compact before being crushed. In its "rock" form, the powder is super compressed and tight which allows it to fit into the vials.

💧 Why make handmade paints rather than buying ones at the store?
🌿 It's kind of like cooking your own food. There are delicious meals you can buy from restaurants but food made from home is a different kind of delicious.

  • It's really crazy to imagine you making all this paint while filming all these various shots and angles on top of being a full time student.

    Literally the only channel in which there can be a 3h video that I will sit through and enjoy EVERY SECOND! 😍
  • @spider_kite
    Such artistry! From the camera work, to the paint work! Every second is amazing!
  • @moons-sun
    The patience you have is incredible! you are so delicate and calm and deliberate with how you treat the paint (and other projects), it's so relaxing :)
  • @ziraffen
    Oh my goodness, I thought the giveaway was about pre-made palettes, but you actually made them yourself! My heart! And the cause/fundraiser is everything! <3 This is lovely in so many ways!
  • The sound of tapping on the plastic tubes to get the last of the paint dust out is one of my favorite sounds. To hear it many times in a video was wonderful 💛
  • @chocodayo
    I love how differently colored pigments make different sounds when crushed. My favorite sounds were the blues and the greens♡
  • @mbae123
    The hours of editing this alone. Thank you pearfleur for always delivering!
  • @Lacroix999
    Not gunna lie, this is so mesmerizing that I wouldn’t minded of watching the whole uncut version of it all! I’ve watched it 3x and still not finished it all the way through yet because I fell asleep to it, because I found it was so relaxing! I can only imagine how long this took with so many colors as well as trying to get the different angles shots! It takes me so long just to get through ONE color and get the right consistency! Some of these colors are absolutely gorgeous!! A few of them surprised me how they turned out! And I’ve heard nothing but great reviews of Choosing Keeping that one day love to be able to check it out for myself in person! One more thing-you’re very brave for wearing white while making paint! 😂 there were a few time I thought “there’s no way she’s not going to eventually drag that sleeve across that slab!” 🤣🤣
