How To Lightpaint With Your iPhone

If you saw our previous posts about light painting using an iPhone or iPad, you’ll enjoy this brief video demonstration of how to make a very cool New Year greeting.

The lightpainting was done using Penki, an app developed by the people who sparked off this idea in the first place, Dentsu London/BERG.

All that’s needed in addition is a ruler, a camera with a flash (for the portraits), and a shiny table. And perhaps a few rehearsals to get the timing right. There’s a pile more lightpainting images in the Penki Flickr pool, if you feel the need for some further inspiration.

EDIT: Video embedding didn’t work – go here to see the video in full.
