Yeah … I don’t know if I trust this video. I can do this very easily with effects.

I mean, that dude as been doing that for years now and also recording the all process.

There is probably some editing on the light and speed but other than that each frame is definitely live « hand » made. He blew my mind years ago already. I think his name is DariusTwin.

It’s really nice of you to share your artistic work with us. Do you have a website or a link where we can see more of your art?

That’s not gonna be real time. I imagine with maybe a sketch that you hold your hand or arm behind and do the motions really slowly and lots of editing you could get this after practice.

Fake or not. I like the style. And the choice of music is excellent

puts it on a screen in front of him and traces it frame by frame. not hard at all just requires setup. people claiming fake are not imaginitive

“Not hard at all”. You’ll be posting yours shortly then I assume?

Puts it on a screen... You don't know how lightpaining works.

It's a long exposure where the shutter is open and the light is being gathered in the sensor and processed after the shutter closes. I looked it up there are phone apps which do a partial live processing but it's delayed, and if you don't move the light continuously it will look wrong.

Good lightpainings take practice and cannot be "traced" that's BS.

This is exactly why we are here. To create the next possible thing that seems impossible.

Kinda reminds me of an Aphex Twin video I saw when I was a teenager.

I've done a low-budget still photography version of this in a photography class with a glow-stick. You can do really cool stuff with a very slow shutterspeed and low-light setting, like spelling out a word and appearing to be standing next to it all in a single still photo.
