Chaos: push the fader, gifted animator

My artwork pieces.

This is a photo I title Push the Fader, it was taken with a Canon 450D.
Method: It's just a photo with a long exposure. First I stood in the frame pretending to hold the girl, the the photo was taken, the shutter stays open - hence still letting light in - and the girl (my friend Jaide) gets into position. We then shone a torch on her (so the camera would pick up the light).
She appears faded because she is the secondary subject in the photo. I appear solid because the flash from the camera is a much brighter light source than the torch we used to 'expose' Jaide.

This short stop motion, for the purpose of this blog, is titled Gifted Animator (Red Hot Chili Peppers' Dani California lyrics: push the fader, gifted animator, one for the now and eleven for the later).
Method: The photos were taken using the same technique as the above photo: extended exposure. It's a style of photography called Light Graffiti wherein one moves a light source (usually a torch or glow stick) in front of the lens while it is exposed.
After the photos were taken I imported them into Adobe Premier and added the soundtrack which I made in Adobe Audition.

Hope you like it.
