Evan is my cousin’s youngest son and he loves monsters. A couple of weeks ago he had a monster themed party with the works: a jumpy house, candy bags, and all the Capri Sun a kid could ever want. After Evan opened his presents, he thanked everyone by treating them to a dance performance. This was a pretty big surprise because Evan is usually pretty shy around a lot people.

Below you will find a picture he drew for me of a monster, the set of pictures I took at his birthday party, and 2 videos of Evan dancing. The first video was made from pictures taken by me. The second video is the actual footage taken by Evan’s aunt during his dance. (pictures and videos best seen using full screen feature)

Light graffiti is very simple. How-to sites make it sound very intimidating. I must have read a dozen articles on how to make light graffiti before I tried it. In the end, messing with the camera settings over and over was all that was needed. Initially, the pictures were taken with all the lights turned off, but after experimenting I was able to make light graffiti in a fully lit room. I still need more work before I can be featured here.
