Painting WIth Light, with a teddy bear?

ISO: 1600  SS: 1/30  f/5.0

I own a little teddy bear that glows in the dark, and I wanted to see if I could get a painting with light photo with it by moving the limbs. The idea started out as this:

Which was clearly unsuccessful. So we (Casey, Ndid and I) went a different direction with it.  This photo is just simply the IDEA, because we weren't able to pull it off in the time we needed. We decided to try to paint a "ghost" figure in the back of a photo using the bear. We DID manage getting that done.  However, we couldn't quite get the lighting right on Casey.  We are going to try again hopefully another time, using a rem light so we can actually see Casey's outline, and probably using a different light source. I thought it was interesting to learn how to expose for the bear, though. It was pretty hard, because clearly a glow in the dark bear isn't exactly the brightest light. It was difficult, but we got it.

We'll see where we go from this. It'll hopefully be way more creepy next time. It was supposed to be a "ghost" after all.
