Light writing - is an emerging form of stop motion animation wherein still images captured using the technique known as light painting or light drawing are put in sequence thereby creating the optical illusion of movement for the viewer. /definition/
In the last two lessons I had been introduced with amazing way to create incredible images at night.
Basically anyone with a nice camera that has adjustable expose can do this.
Basically anyone with a nice camera that has adjustable expose can do this.
All what need is a dark area - night is the best and flashlights. Shutter speed need to be set about 15 sec or longer (Bulb) and your f-stop around 5.6. it`s depends of light source around.
This is a really fun thing to do with a couple people if not need to bee sure to have shutter on the timer or remote setting.
I`ll bee honest I never thought something like this is possible till I went out and try. Takes some practice to get what you want right, but still is so surprising what you can do.
The best thing is get a whole collection of lights - different colors, sizes, wattage's and try then.
There are some of my images...far from professionals, but considering that is my first that kind....is not bad..is it?!
For these I went outside of my college, with help of my friend to get some practice. I used a simple flashlights. Its not really creative, but I will improve this technique for future definitely.
These two images I made at home indoor environment using for first my kids toy lights and second, what is my favorite, candles.
I did some research and find some fantastic works which leave a great impression to me...I will try to do the same when I`ll have more time to explore new possibility's.

ReplyDeleteThanks ...I have started research already, just in my drafts, I posted, when I will finish, like all 10 artists together. Snow is letting me down, no college this week....
ReplyDeleteHi Kristine,
ReplyDeleteI love the snow too:)
People are a bit sensitive in this country, as soon as the first flake falls everyone panics! It's a shame about college, but at least you should be able to get some nice wintery photos.
I think we should be ok. I don't think Marie would let us put it off until spring:)
Your photo's are looking great by the way! I loved the photo story you did.
See you wednesday.
