But I know if you make the right connection you get a shock.

Or a flash.

Shells of old disposible cameras are harder to find now that everyone has a camera in their phone, but they are still being sold and used.

I had a bunch stored from years ago, so I dug them up and tested them out.

Flashing around the house.

 

It might just be an illustion, but these flashes seem much brighter than what I'm used to with my digital.

At the very least, I should be able to defend myself against Raymond Burr.

Shopping for bits and pieces for camera details.

And here's a shot of my time at the electrical tape store.

Both spray paint and latex paint have a nasty effect on the surface of styrofoam, so I tried wrapping the camera bodies with black electrical tape. It looked somewhat less awesome than I wanted, but it was black and shiny, so I was satisfied.

I tried to give the cameras a little variety, but they had pretty much the same shape. The next step, before I attached the lenses, was to plan how the cameras and heads would ultimately be attached to a harness.


I bent a piece of PVC pipe with a heat gun. This would be the main support attached to my shoulder harness.

Next I added some horns to each side.

Each of these pipes would hold one head and camera, with a vertical branch at the end to serve as the bracket which holds the flash unit above the camera.
