Black Lights

Wednesday, February 19, 2014

Even though I am not enrolled in any photo media classes, I am still coming up with different ideas for photo shoots (for lack of a better word or description). My friends like to help, because they like to be in the pictures, like the blood ones. The most recent idea was black lights.

We got some neon and glow in the dark paint and some black light lightbulbs and set to work. Of course, this idea came at about 1:00AM so we didn't actually take that many pictures before we were all ready to go to sleep.

It was fun regardless. I painted some patterns on to two of my friends and then we put one black light into a lamp and the other into the ceiling appendage. It was kinda freaky actually.




The white paint for my friend Andy didn't work as well as I thought it would. It was neon or black light, but I figured that since white objects and clothing did well under black light, that the paint would too. I did not assume correctly. The yellow would have been better for him. 




I have included the last picture so you can see what the paint looked like in normal lighting. The black light is still on in the doorway, so that is why the blue paint on the left side (the viewer's right) looks so bright.
