Takes

We did several takes as seen below.
Pratice take before public.

 
For the first shot they stayed in place and just made small gestures with their lights.

For the second shot, two groups filled in columns of light on either side of the square before spreading out to sign their names on the ground.

The third time they added silhouettes and other figures to their delight.
