“It’s easy! Here’s what you need:

A camera that can do long exposures, or has a “bulb” mode. You can do this with a camera that does 10-30 second long exposures as well. Any DSLR will do this, and a lot of point-and-shoot cameras will have a manual or “shutter priority” mode.
A tripod, or a way to lock your camera down.
Lights! Flashlights, LED lights, anything – these will be your “brushes”
A dark room, or nighttime
If you want to be super fancy, a camera flash (or just another camera that has a flash!”

I made something like this for my girlfriend. It was free since I had the camera and LED’s, it didn’t take long at all, and a million bonus points for it being clever and homemade.

We did this in a photography class I took many years ago. We used sparklers to write our names. Very cool!
