shadow puppets
(Friday, May 16, 2008)
"two or three cavemen grouped together inside their cave dwellings sitting around the fire they had just produced. One of them stands up and starts telling a story about hunting for a wild boar. With the use of his hands and perhaps, even his feet, he creates images on the walls of the cave through shadows so as to illustrate better the story he is trying to tell. To further liven up the story, he uses a piece of cloth and makes use of his voice to imitate the sound of a wild boar."

Shadow of hands are known as a form of art which is now called "Hand Shadowgraphy", where people create images with bare hands only.

I found some great videos on youtube where people try to add music and sound effects, they even do it digitally which make it more interesting like which parts are real....?
