Something a bit different - "frozen moments" [GIF heavy]

MrScott · 14 Nov 2013 at 00:50

Hi all,

Long time no post. A few years ago a friend gave me an old 3D film camera - a Nishika N8000, for my birthday, and I finally got round to finishing a roll of film in it recently. Been putting together some of the results from the film scans tonight and wanted to share. Bit of a post-and-run now I'm afraid, 'cos it's bed time.

Images (taken in Durham, York and London):

Scott.

What software did you use to make the vibrating gifs?

The ones that move really slowly look Incredible. The fast ones soon get annoying.

Thanks, yes these were made with frame animation in Photoshop. The camera takes 4 frames for each shot, and the faster moving ones are only using those frames. For the slower / smoother ones I've interpolated between the original frames using this, although it didn't work too well on some of the photos (nasty artifacts etc) so those are the ones I just left as 4 frames / faster.

Coolest thing I've seen all week!

That is cool!

Could you post the still images from the 3rd gif? I want to test something to see if I can make a similar gif from just two images

MrScott · 18 Nov 2013 at 23:58

Go for it, here are the 4 original frames in order

That's brilliant. The one with lad playing the guitar is particularly effective. I do like stuff like this but I've never seen this effect before. Thank you.

That's excellent.

Im a bit daft when it comes to the photography of cameras but i wanted to ask, is this only capable/effective with 3d cameras or could i do it on my 600D?
