Silhouette challenge
Featured snippet from the web
The so-called “Silhouette Challenge” often shows people in their normal attire then switches to a red filter showing their silhouette.
The issue is some people have figured out how to remove that filter and expose what the person was or was not wearing under the silhouette.
What is the #SilhouetteChallenge?
The viral challenge has had many people mesmerized as women, and some men, show off their figures with the help of a red light filter and a doorway. The person starts the video off with a smooth Paul Anka song before transitioning into “Streets” by Doja Cat. They then strip down and strike different poses to show their curves’ silhouette with the red filter’s help.
While the #BussItChallenge showed women transforming and putting on their best clothes with full-on glam, this trend strips the person down to focus solely on their shapes and their silhouettes. The challenge requires participants to film two separate videos of themselves and then combine them while using audio from TikTok. The videos start with the person standing in front of the camera in regular lighting while wearing casual clothes, with some choosing to wear robes and pajamas, as Anka sings, “Put your hand on my shoulder.”
The music then transitions into the “Streets” beat, and the camera filter turns red. The lighting perfectly shows off every curve as the participants strike different poses while standing in a doorway using an outside light source to create a shadow effect. Some chose to do it fully nude, leaving little to the imagination, while others wore underwear or bikinis.
