I found these pictures of one of the coolest and funniest Homemade Halloween Costume I’ve ever seen on a Russian site. (Sorry I couldn’t even pronounce the name of the site)
If you are a fan of Batman and looking to see how a Batman Costumefor Halloween or Fancy Dress Party will look, you will really enjoy this video on the Theme Song of BATMAN.
It also shows some good ideas to make yourself look just like Batman if you decide to get yourself a Batman Costume for Halloween or a Fancy Dress Party, especially the fact that you need to use Halloween makeup to paint your eyes black for the Batman Costume Mask to look decent (no matter what version you buy)
he video of GoldenTuks (from youtube) in his batman costume / suit is hilarious. This guy definately has talent! The next Weird Al? Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve always been a fan of illusions and trick photography and will be showing some really good examples that you can use over Halloween or any special event to create great memories with your Toddlers, Teens or even the Big Kids…
Recently in the UK percil (a local washing detergent) showed an ad which uses Trick photography and something called “forced perspective” which really creates awesome illusions of size.
The basic idea is that objects that are closer to you are larger than those further away, and by forcing a certain perspective by placing your camera near the ground for instance, a near perfect illusion is created.
I was thinking that this year instead of just taking normal photo’s of friends in Halloween Costumes, to rather try some of the Trick photography ideas.
Some examples of Trick Photography:
Taking a empty tube for a “spin”
From http://www.danigrab.com/
Total Domination:
From http://www.lib.unc.edu/blogs/morton/
They go on to explain further how the illusion was created:
The picture was taken sometime during Hugh’s days at Camp Yonahnoka, where he took his first photography course in 1934 and served the following five summers as the camp’s photography instructor. It’s a good example of Morton’s appreciation for visual humor, something I’ve noticed throughout the collection.
Here’s another example with a different feel
Here is the Best Trick Photography Video’s that I’ve been able to find online.
If you like the Video’s below you will jsut love this book.
I’ve purchased this book from Amazon and can really recommend it:
It shows all kinds of really cool ideas, some of which I could find no example for online…
None of them use some of the really cool techniques shown in the book. I’ll take some photo’s at Halloween and upload them when I get a chance.
Have fun taking photo’s of your kids and friends in Halloween Costumes with your newly acquired Trick Photography Skills.
Halloween is a fun time of year for children of all ages-and all species. For those of you who are pet lovers you might already know that you can find creative cat and dog Halloween costumes to make the holiday even more special for you and your furry friend. If this is something that you are interested in there are a few different options that you can look into to learn more about the topic. The first suggestion would be to search online to get an idea of what you would like to dress your pet up as. You can also go to the larger pet stores to see what they might have to offer you for information on the subject.
Once you know what type of creative costume your want for your pet you will need to decide what you will use for accessories. If you are planning on having your cat be a dog for Halloween you might want to have him wear bones made out of paper around his neck. Just something simple and cute like that would work. Why not have your pet’s costume match the theme as your children’s? Your little girl could be Bo Peep while your black lab could be her lost sheep. Looking for an idea that is a little more complicated? Have your son be Elliot and your rat terrier can be E.T. the alien. The most fun part about Halloween is that you get to let your imagination and creativity run wile.
If you are planning on taking your old pooch “trick-or-treating” with the family you will want to take this into consideration, does the costume work well with a collar and leash? You wouldn’t want something tragic to happen to your beloved friend on such a joyous evening. In the even that you might be out past dark you should put reflective tape on the collar and leash of your pets. You could also purchase these accessories that are made for doing such activities in the dark. Also, make sure the costume fits properly. Too small of a costume could be hazardous to your pet because it might not allow your pet to move as easily. If danger where to head your way your pet might not be able to get out of the way in time due to the restrictions. Always be sure to never leave your pet unattended while in a costume. An animal can easily become tangled up while wearing a costume and this could lead to serious injuries or even death.
You can shop for your cat or dog Halloween costume at most pet stores. Online is another option for shopping. Many pet suppliers have catalogues that you can have shipped right to your door to look through. You will be able to mail in an order or even make a purchase online. Making your own costume is another possibility. You can find free patterns or patterns for a relatively low cost online or at fabric stores. Whichever method you decide to use to allow your pet to join in on the fun is up to you. Just be sure to have the perfect fit for the safety of your pet. Don’t forget to give your pet a couple treats, too.
