i am more concerned with the content of the video. The d-face/JR/banksy-ish graphics are just not doing it for me. With idea this brilliant you need to go all the way and think what you actually paint so the whole thing is bulletproof conceptually. Or maybe i missed it?

If it was painted in real time, they would have shot the video in real time. The time lapse effect is to hide the technique. What I would do to get this effect (and what I suspect they did) is have the video prepared in very slow motion, and then just have a glowing bar incorporated in the video where I was supposed to have the roller placed and just follow the glowing bar.

When I watched it I thought the projector was just playing the video with the strokes and they choreographed the strokes. Kind of close, but the actual technique is super awesome

Next time, just say “I’m Awesome, and I know exactly what happened.” No need to say anything after that.

Actually I watched the video before reading your description, and halfway through figured out the basic technique — which you then described when I did read it. However, I am _very_ impressed with the idea and am not sure of the details of how to mask the projector the way they do, it is fairly obvious that is what is being done.

Oohh…but ya I agree with you Mike, they should have kept the technique a secret. Would have left thousands of photographers scratching their heads (me included).
