Ants in My Shoes
Thom there is a iPhone version of the video. The aspect ratio is screwed up though. Don’t know why. TIM RESPOND.
Ant Farm
What would you like for Christmas? How about an Ant Farm!
Ant Farm was written, shot, and edited over two days. Besides drawing on Dick’s discussion of his ant farm (also see Ant Redux, Rodent Bot Fly), it owes special debt to Dick’s discussion of torches in Forest Walks: 1, 2, and 3, and Dragon’s post, The Better TP Lantern. And by the way – Protozoic does NOT endorse or recommend anyone making a TP lantern as it is very dangerous.
In terms of movie-making, we’ve attempted to properly light the indoor shots. This was done with two fluorescent lights bought from Lowes for a total of 30 dollars. Considering the cost, we were pretty happy with the result.
We hope you enjoy Ant Farm and have a happy holiday.
