    Default What if an ink came to life?

    I've recently become a fountain pen and ink fan, and I had a little fun imagining what it would be like if my Noodler's Dragon's Napalm ink came to life:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0azaLcPKWU

    To get the ink drop up close I used a 100 mm macro lens for some of the shots. Tricky to shoot video with a moving subject and shallow depth of field. All of this is live action - no CG or animation is used.

    I hope the purists don't object - some science tricks were used to add...unusual character to the ink for this clip.

    Thanks, Jeph. Very cool to know that the little ink dragon has visited Germany! Judging by the Franconian coat of arms, he would be right at home

    I love it! (And I like the music, reminds me of the Scottish pipe music I grew up with.)

    Hi!

    An update on my entry in the 2013 Noodler's ink contest: The ink dragon video ended up winning a prize, and as a thank you for the support, I'll be sending a pen to FPGeeks for a giveaway, TBD:
