3Radiant Light Films How Does Radiant Light Film Work?

• Radiant Films are multilayer optical constructions

• The films consist of over 200 layers that affect light rays

• Multilayer reflectors amplify this effect.

• Each boundary between layers reflects a fraction of the incoming light.

• By controlling the thickness of each layer, researchers can determine how these light waves will interfere and thus which colors of light will be reflected.

Why use Radiant Light Film in your design?

• Build a visual world for your brand or product.

• Your design is important to notice! Consumers see colors, shapes and symbols before seeing words

• It helps to design your product to address the “five second sweet spot” marketers seek for their products. “During the first one to two seconds, a brand’s colors are seen. Symbols and words are elaborated in the next three to five seconds.”

• Packaging colors and shapes can target the consumer’s subconscious.

• A design can enhance consumer “recall” of your product.
