Jun 16 2010Cool Stop-Motion Video Made With Tea-Lights
Note: Video is after the jump because I don't want your crotch to catch fire on the front page. Wait -- yes, yes I do.
Yes I know what tea-lights are! Does that make me gay? No, lovin' on another man's booty would make me gay. Knowing what tea-lights are just makes me appreciative of their romantic, flickering ambiance. I like to light a couple dozen around an aromatic bubble bath and mmmm, what a sensual treat! Then I unrobe and slip into the tub with another man. And THAT'S when things get gay.
All I can say is ..this took over 2 weeks to do. A lot of fire, A lot of smoke, a lot of heat, and a whole lot of frustration.
Sounds like my sex life. HIYO! No it really does though.
Hit it for the fiery video.

Thanks to whoever sent me this whose tip I couldn't find again. I suck at life, I know.

It's looped. Just focus on one candle and you'll see it.
Still cool, but not as much.

Looks like some of the candles never burned (upper right), even though
they showed up as lit several times?

So it's a PEZ ripoff... nicely done rip off, but rip off nonetheless.

Everyone likes fire.
18. Mangiato - June 17, 2010 2:29 AM
it is not in stop motion, it is edited. Just focus on a candle, you will see same "kind" of flame, also no candle are replaced.
Sorry for my poor english, but i'm poor.
FAIL.

You know it's a cool idea when you say to yourself "Why the funk didn't I think of this!!!"

I just can't hack the lame "Video after jump because...." comments anymore.
Either post your video on the front page or don't, but making up hackneyed reasons for EVERY video just makes you a douche. Not returning to this site...

@pup
don't let the internet door hit you on the ass on your way out
26. PolleN112 - June 18, 2010 12:02 AM
What monster said.
27. Sekoye - June 18, 2010 10:56 AM
LOL @pup, only reason I come to geekologie is for the humor of the site. Most of what he has on here is regurgitated from other sites I've seen. But his humor is fantastic. I'm sure noone here will miss you. Ciao!

I agree, it looks looped/edited.
This stop-motion looks entertaining: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ackMd-aBZE

Great blog. There are too many benefits to this form of lighting for it not to be the future of it!
