Here is a rough sketch plan of how the Pinhole camera system could work. A, is where the light will come in through a small pinhole made in the front of the box. B, is the image plate (or plane) made of a thin transparent material, like tracing paper and is where the light will hit and create an image. C, is the adjustable casing that will enable adjustments of the size on the image plane. D, is the camera and will most likely be a Sony EX1 digital camera - not a film camera as drawn.
The idea is to mount the camera on a tripod and using a set of bars (usually used for mounting Matt Boxes and Follow Focuses) the image plane will be fixed at a set distance from the camera so as to enable a fixed focal distance. The box will then be secured around the front of the camera and light proofed.
