Storybook Senior Model Crew’s “Up in Smoke” Photo Shoot

In this photo shoot, I challenged myself to create video that I can turn into Cinemagraphs. Cinemagraphs are still photographs in which a minor and repeated movement occurs, forming a video clip. They can give the illusion that the viewer is watching an animation. Cinemagraphs are made by taking a series of photographs or a video recording, and, using image editing software to composite the photographs or the video frames into a seamless loop of sequential frames. This is done in such a way that motion in part of the subject between exposures (for example, smoke billowing) is perceived as a repeating or continued motion, in contrast with the stillness of the rest of the image.
