Abstract
A special effect system and method includes an image panel having a surface coated with phosphor particles and a video screen that projects a transmitted predetermined display. The phosphor coated surface of the image panel is placed in close proximity to the video screen. The phosphor particles that overlap and are thus exposed to the predetermined display are excited by the wavelength emissions of the display and undergo phosphorescence in a wavelength range of human-visible light. Thus, when the panel is removed from the screen, a glow in the dark, 'secret' message or image, special effect is revealed.
