That's very similar to the way I used to shoot plate setups for 4 color process printing when I worked in a print shops many moons ago. I'd shoot each color using a different filter and screen to make the negatives that were then burned on to plates that went into the printing press.

I'm usually no fan of colorization, but a lot of those photos just took my breath away.

10. well, it's not colorization, really... |
|
colorization is basically "painting" color onto a B&W original.
this photographer used filters to break the image into its 3 component parts, captured as monochrome, and then re-combined. I believe this is how some early Hollywood color movies were done -- 3 separate projectors. Or the old-school home theatre systems with the big red, green, and blue filtered lenses you had to calibrate into register.
