Making Future Magic: iPad light painting

This film explores playful uses for the increasingly ubiquitous 'glowing rectangles' that inhabit the world.

We use photographic and animation techniques that were developed to draw moving 3-dimensional typography and objects with an iPad. In dark environments, we play movies on the surface of the iPad that extrude 3-d light forms as they move through the exposure. Multiple exposures with slightly different movies make up the stop-frame animation.

We've collected some of the best images from the project and made a book of them you can buy: http://www.bit.ly/​mfmbook
