  I was able to produce it by doing the following:
  
  1. Convert the video to monochrome by turning the saturation down
  2. Apply Levels and bring the output black point up to around 30%
  3. Put an orange color solid over it and set the opacity to 50%
  4. Set the blend mode to "Normal," "Overlay," or "Hard Light"
