This was shot with no diffuser in front the LEDs, so each horizontal line looks very discrete. Nicely done!Ī little bit of graffiti peeking up from a puddle. In honor of Back to the Future day, Elton McAleer did a triple pixelstick shot, striping two separate flame tracks walking away from the camera and then the back of a delorean walking square to camera. Pixelstick was used to project the subaru logo onto the side of the car – pixelstick was facing away from the camera so you don’t see the original light, just the reflection.

Courtest of Eric Pare photography.īill Murray looking rather reflective. The flame image loaded onto pixelstick not only creates the realistic looking fire, but also casts a ton of lovely orange light over the dancer as well as the reflection on the ground below. Far easier (and more rewarding) in our opinion is to let pixelstick do its thing, spilling beautiful, organic light all through your exposure. Whether it’s the curving body of a car or the choppy surface of a lake, faking these kind of real reflections is extremely difficult to pull off convincingly. One of the best examples of this real environmental interaction is reflections.

Whether you shoot for fun or shoot for results, pixelstick keeps you behind the camera more and fiddling in software afterwards less. There are a few key differences between using pixelstick and trying to mimic the visuals in Photoshop or After Effects, and those differences account for much of the value in choosing to take the practical path. Whether by taking advantage of pixelstick’s 1/4-20″ Rear Channel or simply by using a superclamp, people all over the world are getting even more out of their pixelstick by sticking it on things. We used it again in the below shot, which allowed us to get massively long and tall rainbow arcs that were easy to see even perched on a roof across the street.Įxtending is just one technique. We were able to get such a large and smooth rainbow by clamping pixelstick to the end of a 12′ painter’s pole and pivoting at the corner, where the wall meets the ground. If you look closely, in some of the frames you can see someone standing under the arc of the rainbow, giving a sense of scale. You may recognize this shot from our original video.

Since our very first prototype we’ve been bolting, clamping, and otherwise attaching pixelstick to as many things as we could to get the best, most interesting results possible. One of the often overlooked features of pixelstick is how well it lends itself to creative mounting. This entry was posted in Uncategorized on Octoby pixelstick. This one is a comp of 3 shots because the lights were on and we couldn’t find the breakers. Similar to the skull ribbon, a pixellated ghost ribbon over an alley puddle.

Vampire Lips just signed a 5 year lease for a lovely warehouse space on the second floor.įun Fact: In addition to being extremely unsettling, these teeth were the cover art for the 1983 Swans album Filth. This skull ribbon is a simple pixellated skull that we drew in photoshop and then repeated a bunch of times. Got a lot of mileage out of the roof, obviously. The original artwork had some compression artifacts, otherwise we love this shot, especially how the image is sort of a penninsula in the sense that it has no hard edge on three sides, so it’s good to lay directly against the surface (or as close as you can get.) Luckily, building management doesn’t lock the door of the roof. We framed this without knowing what artwork we were going to put there, simply because the frame was too good to pass up. In the right context, even simple eyes look scary rather than just scared.
