These inspired us to start making some Cinemagraphs of our own! Here is our first attempt. More to come!

Awesome! I've never seen this before. Thanks for sharing, and good luck exploring the possibilities.

cloroxbleach4 · May 3, 2011, 08:47 PM

Anyway to make these your background pictures?

ViviUO · May 3, 2011, 10:46 PM

Those are all very well done.

xkmxkmxlmx · May 4, 2011, 08:29 AM

Love them so much. There is a really cool movie specific one here http://iwdrm.tumblr.com/page/2

BillyBobBongo · May 4, 2011, 09:08 AM

Wow! Quite simply, wow!

These pictures make me feel like I'm 1) in Harry Potter or 2) high.

Tripod is a must.

I take a photo with the desired effect like motion blur.

take a video clip. (i use a nikon d3100 with 1080p video at 24fps)

Use quicktime to select a section of the video for the motion, copy and paste to a new clip and "export as image sequence"

Now, in photoshop, resize the original image to match the size of the video frames.

overlay the individual frames, delete everything within the frames that you don't want to be moving

create individual animation frames and export as a GIF

awesome.

The.316 · May 20, 2011, 04:49 AM

Can you use these as desktop backgrounds?

product26 · May 30, 2011, 06:42 PM

My favorite so far.

Kilamite · May 30, 2011, 06:59 PM

I guess part of the technique is video footage going forward, then back on itself so the animation can loop without any jumps. They do look awesome though.

I'm guessing this could be the future of newspapers - thin, cheap, flexible e-displays that display photos like this (in addition to video). Gives photos more of a charm.

vincenz · May 30, 2011, 07:33 PM

This is really cool, never seen anything like it even for being on the internet so long.

product26 · Jun 24, 2011, 01:50 AM

truly awesome storm rolled through.

pacmania1982 · Jun 24, 2011, 09:26 PM

These are amazing! Imagine what the internet in 1995 would have looked like with these rather than the old style animated gifs!!
