We will demonstrate the principle of the basic limeligh, and tranform it into a 'magic lantern' to project a series of 5 'illuminating facts' about Gurneys adventures in light.
The 'animation' on the slides will be in keeping methods used at the time (cross fading two similar tiles, as well as long 'panoramic' slide which pull in/out, etc. Click here an example of the real thing.
Since we have a great deal of black & white Linework - making them into Slides and hand colouring them will be a good means of enlivening the content.
A storyboard will follow in the next day.

We think this is a huge improvement on what was an interesting but difficult challenge dealing with Gurney's interest in light in the HofP. Love the animation of the magic lantern but more important how fascinating that Gurney made such a contribution to this technology. Am going to talk tomorrow to the National Media Museum to see whether we might acquire a magic lantern for display. Will sort out a selection of pictures of The Castle and forward tomorrow.
