Lightwriting From Picasso to Lichtfaktor

How to expend This aesthetic Photography Technique

You may have already seen Light Writing in action, but for those who haven't, a snappily explanation- The technique is almost 100 years ago, when Picasso (that man fair loves to contribute to the art world..)  decided to sketch a centaur mid-air using a torch -

The photograph was taken by Gjon Mili - "I confronted him [Picasso] with a photograph, taken in darkness but showing a skater's leap traced with lights attached to the skates. Picasso reacted instantly. Intrigued, he began drawing with his finger in the thin air." They arranged to meet at a pottery in Vallauris. In the sunless, after Mili fired his flash, Picasso sketched a centaur in the air -

Since then Light Writing has arrive a long map, and under the microscope is the group LICHTFAKTOR-

Lichtfaktor, a group of artists from Cologne, Germany, are setting the bar high for other light artists all over the world. The group have made the expressionless and simple (a trash can for example)  into fluid, spellbinding, illuminative works of art, attracting the attention of major companies wanting to commission the group for their acquire means - the likes of Philips, fresh TV and trip amongst them.

The Group first kicked off in 2006. Marcel Panne ($ehvermögen) , David Lüpschen (Jiar)  and
Tim Fehske (10X)  first worked together when Panne was asked to effect some unusual material for an event with the theme 'Energy in Motion'. Fehske has since left the group, but $ehvermögen (photographer and VJ since 1997 with many years of experience in the event field)  and JIAR (communications designer and graffiti artist)  are collected experimenting with light on the streets.

The entire streetscape is the artist's 'canvas,' not merely acting as a backdrop, but is incorporated into the work itself - Lichtfaktor are also kind enough to offer a tutorial, here it is

HOW TO DO IT.

"This are the basics: to collect the best results you need a tripod. the exposure should be around 10-30 sec. or longer if needed. quit in front of the camera and do your writing. to not overexpose residence the camera to about iso100, and stop your aperture as great as possible. if there is serene too noteworthy light, you might have to consume a nd-filter. it is always nice to integrate the surrounding into your narrate.

We employ flashlights, biking-lights and flashing LED lights, they all work with batteries, so that we are mobile, you also come by nice results with fireworks & torches.

There are 3 different type of lights we use:

Xenon: makes a warm golden light.
LED: makes a thin proper line.
Cold Cathode: thick line/fat cap.

But the best results you acquire by experimenting, expend filters and things which assume light..."
