Light Duel: An Animation Made with 300 Light-Painting Photos

Light-painting artist Darren Pearson created this short animation titled “Light Duel.” The 14-second film was created using 300 long-exposure photos with light drawings that were tirelessly painted into the scenes by hand.

The animation shows a duel between a light skeleton named Shiny Bone Jones and a human named Astro Bandit (AKA Jordan Pearson).

After the animation itself, the video contains a behind-the-scenes video showing how involved creating it was.

You can find more of Pearson’s work here and on his website.
