Is The Red Filter On The Silhouette Challenge Reversible?

The good news is ‘No’ the filter cannot be removed once it has been applied, but some people claim that there are some editing techniques which cancels out the red colour from the video, it is usually done by increasing the brightness and exposure of the video to see what is underneath.
