  Step 1

  Assemble the circuit: power + wire + motion trigger + servo. Make sure the servo is set to "turn" mode. Test the circuit. You will need to be very still so as to not activate the motion trigger. Then, when you move, the servo should turn.

  Step 2

  Next you will need a frame and portrait to hack. We suggest you use a frame that is deep enough to embed the servo (~1.5"). We used an 11" x 14" x 1.5" wood frame from Blick. You can use a portrait from your house or you can print out version we used. If you are not using our version, you will also need to make two sets of eyes to will sit behind the portrait (one normal set and one scary set). The two sets of eyes should be spaced ⅞" from center to center.

  Step 3

  Carefully cut the eyes out from the main portrait. Then tape the photo (image facing out) to the inside of the frame.
