Stop-Frame Animator Makes Amazing DSLR Movie The Old-Fashioned Way
Posted by Kit Eaton at 11:00 PM on September 24, 2008
Made by Ryan Cashman, this movie shows you that with a chunk of ingenuity and a huge bucket-load of patience you can make movies with any old DSLR. Ryan's clip of an LED pianist was made with nothing more sophisticated than a green keychain LED and a Canon digital Rebel. He took a sequence of 20-30 second exposures, and strung them together later into an animated movie with original music. HD-video DSLRs? Pah... this is real art. [Vimeo via Wired]

Very creative and I like it. And the musics got a funky beat but you cant dance to it.

what's difficult about it would be doing the light painting so perfectly, and just the amount of planning that would be necessary. I agree, as a camera operator, nothing too trying, but i'm still impressed.
