Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Creating Ocean Waves for Shadow Puppet Show?


I post very infrequently, but I've done some real nice water effects 
with 'ripple' or 'water' glass from a stained glass store. If you take 
two round pieces (I used 16" octagons, b/c it's what I could cut) and 
overlap and rotate them. Shining a light through the overlap can make 
really effective projected water effects. Adjusting the rotation 
directions and speed can get different effects. If you want to project 
the shapes, clear glass will work. I used light blue glass and projected 
on the ceiling of an art installation. It look as though the light were 
reflected off a pond or lake/ocean.

Good luck - I love lighting effects :)

Kind Regards,
Dave
