I’ve been looking for ways to convey on a computer monitor all that a 32″ x 40″ print of my work has to offer. These videos are an exploration of one possibility. (Make sure the settings are on HD 1080p, and click the full screen icon.)
I have LED lamps in my living room, some of which change colors, and I noticed that the prints hanging above the lamps changed colors too, although the lamps aren’t that bright and the changes were subtle. So I bought a 100W LED floodlight that also changed colors, and wowie zowie! Very dramatic, but not bright enough to shoot video. Then it occurred to me that I could simulate the effect in Photoshop with photo filters, then put them together and animate them in iMovie. I wrote the background music in Reason.
