Videos for Creating Cool 3D Light Objects Using Only a Tablet and Camera

We’ve shared a few pretty cool cross-section light painting projects before, but none of them were ever very... shall we say... cheery. Both projects -- 21:31 and Andy Leach's hologram photo -- were created using the same eerie video of human slices from the Visible Human Project. But for those who wanted to toy around with cross-section light painting and re-creating 3D light objects in their photos, that’s all they had.

Well, not anymore. Photographer Hugo Baptista has put together a Vimeo group called "Cross Section Objects for Light Painting". It contains a number of videos that you can load onto your tablet or smartphone and use to create 3D light painting objects.
