**2026 UPDATE ** NEW VERSION AVAILABLE ON https://virtual.ink/

Virtual ink is a video light-painting software we created in 2015 for a live performance we did at TEDxMontréal. It has been used since then in some big scales shows but I failed to find time for me to play with this technology. It’s only in 2018 that we finally decided to make a much more polished product that is drastically faster and includes tons of new options. This new version goal is to help you create, perform, entertain or teach. That means it can be used either in a studio, on a stage, in a photobooth or at school. 






Virtual.ink is a real-time video light-painting software. It uses the hdmi feed of your camera to capture 1080p footage and provide you nearly instant replay.
