My First Cinemagraphs

in photofeed •  6 years ago 

When it comes to photography, I am always looking for new challenges. Two days ago I randomly stumbled across something called a cinemagraph. Basically a photo with a moving element in it. As soon as I saw it, I knew. New challenge accepted!

Most cinemacraphs that I have now seen online have small motion elements to them (liquid pouring, smoke, wind blowing hair, etc), then others were of bigger scenes with more going on in them. The articles that I have read and tutorials I have watched, have all said start small. But do I listen? Nope lol

Neither of these are saved as a gif with a loop to them, but do have both of them as gif files. I did not shoot them for that, the loops look rather silly. I also was not going to post them, but decided why not share a little bit of my learning proccess.

Let me know what you think!

I like it! it really has a special atmosphere. Especially since everything that is busy or noisy is frozen while pedestrians continue doing there business. I'm in a lecture now, so couldn't watch it with sound, but the silence only adds to the atmosphere 👌. Definitly don't stop experimenting with it!
How are images like this made? I'm curious now.

Thanks! I made these in sony vegas and convert them to gifs with virtualdub. It can also be done in photoshop. Lots of tutorials on youtube etc, it is lots of fun! Check it out

I actually might, sounds fun!
