Infrared Pix and Vid of Project Sheila

[erickonphoenix]

Taking this opportunity to school my daughter in the fine art of IR photography. I used my Sony HD cam in IR mode and shot some vid of Sheila in as dark an environment as I could find, an empty field.

Here's a couple of stills from the vid front and back. The Veiled plate cover seems to help a little but it's hard to tell since my lazy ass wouldn't pull the plate in the dark for a comparison vid. Maybe next weekend.

FRONT: No front plate and Veiled headlights and foglights


REAR: Veiled rear plate cover (over state issued plate) and that's it. Surprise find, The GTO relief under the car is apparently reflective. mmmmmmmm I'll need to fix that.


VID: Sheila walkaround. Look how the rear tailights really blow out with the IR beam hits em. Ouch! I don't know how to blurr my plate on the vid so I cut it short.

How come you took down the vid? (EDIT) nevermind it just decided it was there again.

Front is looking good though, the headlights are rather small hot spots.
Maybe some veil over the Side Reflectors infront because the cop might be at angle and catch one of those.
I thought you had foglights?

Good point. I almost Veiled those but decided against it. Shouldn't take much to do it. JDS suggested I spray tint those as well, which I like too.

Yeah, I've got fog lights but they don't show up on the IR vid.

Good stuff, bruddah.

[ Aside: you know I also love the father-daughter stuff. ]

The "GTO" lettering is reflective!!!!!
