Creating The World’s Largest Light Painting

Last year, Michael Bosanko created what is reportedly the world’s largest ever light painting. This video shows how he did it.


You Won’t Believe How This Car Was Light-Painted

Light painting is something that’s almost always impressive to me — ooh! look at the lights! — but this is just off the charts. The Found Collective teamed up with Marshmallow Laser Feast used a gigantic plasma TV on a track to create 3D imagery. It’s like 3D light printing.


These Girls Are Wearing Nothing But Light

Light painting is one of those magical photography techniques that never gets old. Fancy effects! And even… dresses? Mmhmm. Atton Conrad, an advertising and art photographer, used light painting to dress his models and make them look gorgeous.


What Is This Trippy Burst Of Light?

This is not a screensaver. Nor is it what happens if something goes wrong at the LHC, or the result of too much LSD. In fact, it’s what happens if you have an over-active imagination and go out light paining with a remote control helicopter.


Bullet Time Light Painting Makes Beautiful 3D Graffiti

Light painting is a cool effect and all, but we’ve seen enough of it that it’s getting close to oh-god-not-another-lens-flare territory. But light painting mixed with bullet time, to create 3D light graffiti? Totally fresh and gorgeous.


The Coolest Light-Painting Device Yet

Forget your Maglite, your glowstick, and definitely your mobile phone; there’s a new, cooler brush for painting with light. It’s called the LightScythe. It’s a long wand of computer-controlled LED lights, and with it you can create some amazing images.
