Ugqinsi lwefilimu yothingo luphakathi kuka-16u-36u, futhi uhlelo lombala oluyinhloko luhlanganisa uchungechunge lwemikhiqizo emithathu: ukukhanya okuluhlaza okungemuva okubomvu, ukukhanya okusasibhakabhaka kwegolide, ukukhanya okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka okunsomi. Ifilimu ye-rainbow iyifilimu enezendlalelo eziningi, isebenzisa ngokugcwele isimiso sokuphazanyiswa kokukhanya, emisebe yokukhanya, ukuphikiswa phakathi kwezingqimba nokuphazamiseka phakathi kwezingqimba zokushintsha kombala wengqimba enama-engeli amaningi, njengomphumela wothingo lwesibhakabhaka. Umphumela womlingo wefilimu yothingo ukuthi umphumela wokukhanya ocebile wefilimu ye-rainbow substrate ngokwayo emabangeni ahlukene nama-engeli ahlukene uzobonisa imiphumela yomlingo ehluke ngokuphelele.
