But fist I will explain how we made them....
It's like magic... all you need is a Digital SLR Camera, on a slow shutter speed (a Cannon Digital SLR Camera on a shutter speed of about 2.5 seconds), and a bunch of torches, or glow sticks fro a bit of colour, and a very, very very dark room... with very little light or you don't get the full effect (we obtained our Law Lecture Room within college during our free period (between 11:05 and 12:40 in the morning) and a tripod for level photo taking.. and possible a couple of other people to help.
Steps!!
One) Obtain a room, camera and torches.
Two) Set up the tripod and camera, and remove the flash... the flash destroys all your hard work.
Three) Do a test photo.. just doodle a bit, find the optimum spot to snap the photo.
Four) Dim the lights, and try a few letters... easy ones first.
Five) Black out the lights completely, and block out any other light that you can find.
Six) Start taking your photos... to do this you simply need to follow theses easy steps...
A) Press the shutter button and Keep Hold of it (this is really important).
B) Get your friend to write the letter you wish to produce.
C) Release the button and admire your work!
Seven) Finish taking your photos, remove light blocks, brighten lights (slowly or you'll have a bit of a headache), thank whoever leant you the room, and then go to the media sweet (or any computer) and upload your letters.
Eight) after a bit of editing and tweaking, arrange your letters into words, and words into sentences.
Nine) Upload into JPEG files (get a computer savvy peep to do this)
Ten) Add to your Film!!
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy!
