optical filters and theatrical lighting a
color gel is a transparent or translucent colored panel used to change the color of transmitted light. A gel (from the
Latin gelu "freezing, cold, ice" or gelatus "frozen, immobile") is a
colloidal system in which a porous network of interconnected nanoparticles spans the volume of a liquid medium. In general, gels are apparently solid, jelly-like materials. Both by weight and volume, gels are mostly liquid in composition and thus exhibit densities similar to liquids, however have the structural coherence of a solid. An example of a common gel is edible
gelatin.
