Light Graffiti

Still one of my favorite pods. My profile pic was made before I saw it, but I know now what it's called. Thanks classic Current.

I have to do this!

i just absoultely love this. I saw it like 5 months ago and had to search around again to find it. i like this kid alot he's cool people : )

that was inspiring, what a great outlet for artist expression.... light graffiti

wow. amazinggg

Awesome

Wicked cool. This artist thrives on the process just as much as the finished piece, and that's really refreshing. Very impressive to watch him work his magic, and I loved the gyroscope bit.

very nice work just not starting to get into slow shutter speed and light trails its such a surreal affect. thats how our brain would capture light in the dark if it were celluloid film.

That's crazy as hell!
Keep on keepin on

Very cool, including the Bonobo soundtrack

We really enjoyed your video. We do light art as well.. but you have taken it to a whole new level. Your video kept me interested till the end and left me wanting more. Very cool. Good luck

interesting video. "exporing" like this quite often easily lends itself to many even unrelated creative inspirations...and a lot of time "having fun" articulating personal goals and ideals

very nice to see you seem to naturally make the time to nurture a "golden goose" instead of constantly squeezing/eeking out every last ounce of golden eggs with mere bland "production value."

good job! keep having fun! =)

I had a go at this last night, and now realise how damn difficult it is. But I had fun, and I'm going to continue trying to learn what indeed is an exceptional skill.

excelent, greenlight

Excellent work, well done.. Great photos, I too have always loved time lapse photos..

Very cool - I'm inspired to try some myself now :-)

This is really cool. As and artist I'm always down with learning new ways of creating art. This is really cool. I don't think it would hurt to use the music through out the whole pod. Even over dialog. Great pod though.

Awesome. I love the stop motion part. Good work.

Very cool! Every time I've seen the Sprint commercials I've wanted to know how they did it .... and now I know! I'm kinda inspired now to go and try to make light graffiti of my own!

Very cool! Light painting is a blast! Way to go...

That was really interesting I think the pod was a good coverage over the facts about light graffiti. Now want to take my camera and mess around with it!!!

Great job. I am going to be doing my own light graffiti very soon. Fun stuff.

Interesting pod. I like the subject matter, however I feel like this piece would benefit from a wider range of shots. It feels like I'm staring at his face, in the dark, a lot during this pod. Maybe if you could find another light artist to interview as well?

Also, I think it's just a tiny bit too long. All in all, good work :)

Nice piece!!

I remember playing with light in photography, it was harder than I thought it would be. You really have to practice for a flower to look like a flower, for the light to connect the peice as a whole.

Dope!

This is an amazing piece. Well done. You've kept us all enthralled. You've got a natural ability to bring the story to the light. Well done.

This was really interesting. You did a great job on this. I've always wondered how people accomplish this, and you helped me gain insight on it!

GL!

I loved the manhole creatures. great production and all too!! the last lines were a perfect ending.

That is amazing, very inspiring, great job!

I absolutely love this style of art. Its incredibly original and it yields alot of room to get creative. Great work!

I'd LOVE to start doing this! does he work with digital cameras? or just on film photography?

terribly sound?? its lambada!!!

very cool

Different..i like it.

Awesome pod! I love light painting, but I don't do it enough, this definitely inspired me to go out there and have fun with it.

I especially liked the shot where you overlaid the finished photo over the video of him painting the word "light" that was awesome.

sweeeet pod man. this is great.

This is cool, because we did stuff like this on B&W film back in the 90's when I was in college. Back then it was film, so you'd have to shoot a roll, develop it, make a contact sheet, and find which ones worked the best (F16, Ball, 20 second exp.) then compare it to the others, pick a negative and make a print.

The new SLR digital cameras give you instant feedback, so it's just like what we used to do back in the dinosaur days, but with instant gratification.

Thanks for reminding an old photo buff what old tricks you can do with the newer technology, I started out in photojournalism before I went to videography so this was especially meaningful to me.

"Painting With Light" is a great way to apply the terminology we used to use in the darkroom to the instant feedback from digital-SLRs. Back in the film days we'd spend hours turning negatives into prints in the darkroom we would dodge & burn the image on to the paper, and we often called it "painting with light" during the printmaking process.

I'm going to try this with my camera. Thanks!

very nice

rock on

Great images, music... just watch out for the changing of tones in the sound. Greenlight

Wow that was tight!! my friend melanie from washington dc just started experimenting with this type of art. Good video

Absolutely brilliant - I'm inspired! Thanks :)

That was pretty cool. Keep up the work buddy!!! xoxo

Great work. Hope to see more.
I think it would be neat to see the artist try to tackle a large portrait with various people coordinated with various lights to create a supper picture. Maybe a city block or a large field.

Interesting technique and great pics! I think adding more music would really help to keep the pod flowing but otherwise, nicely done.

Years ago I made similar photos using those gadgety yoyos which emit lights when you use them, and also waving and shaking bunches of incense sticks. :)

Nice work and nice talk about your own work. Keep doing what you do.

Nice job. I enjoyed it. Good music.

Great work! Mostly, only those who know what it takes will indeed value your work. I do. Congratulations... keep on making holes in the dark!

Really wonderful work Brian! Those photographs are unbelievably good.

Nice work Brian, thanks for the upload.
