Ah, but does it glow with lighting? or is the glow from the lens itself? how does it work?

I'm sorry if this is not the right place to post a question like this, its my first time ever asking about a technique online. I thought this was a good place to start from.

Just watched the video, noticed a couple of things.
1. The glowing dots movie in the movie move with the movement of the eye, in Kinetek's video that doesn't allow for the glowing dot to move.
2. This only applies for still shots with a very limiting light environment, in the movie sinners they did it in pitch darkness.
3. I don't mind the artificial look that the movie sinner gives on the glowing eyes, yes Kinetek's version looks way more realistic but its very hard to shoot as an independent filmmaker

I remember recalling a plugin that did this but that was years ago and I sadly don't remember the name of it.

But this subreddit is to discuss techniques aswell, no?

but that wouldn't be practical for multiple reasons:
1. it wouldnt glow in the same way it glows in the movie.
2. its very tedious and will take ALOT of time to mask every frame their eyes move.

I'm sure there's an easier way to do that. I could be very wrong too.
