The term “cinemagraph”, which was first used, in 2011, by photographer Jamie Beck and digital artist Kevin Burg, represents one still image from which a section shows movement, sometimes so subtle that’s almost imperceptible.
Cinemagraphs are a hybrid, a photograph with a section that is animated, a puzzling effect that attracts the attention of people, divided between two options: is it a photograph or a video? It’s none and it may well be both, as you’re about to discover, if you keep reading.Īlthough being an animated GIF at heart, the modern Cinemagraph is much more than a sequence of clipart with motion, so popular on websites during the early days of the Internet. Only Cliplets…Ĭinemagraphs are, let’s admit it, the old animated GIF from the early days of the Internet, adapted to modern times and created, usually, with photographs. Windows users have to look elsewhere, as there is no commercial solution available to animate photographs. How Microsoft Research Cliplets works is relatively simple, because you have to simply take a short video (10 seconds or less) and use a selection pencil to separate the object that has to keep on moving from the rest of the image.ĭespite the fact that Microsoft doesn't offer direct support for Cliplets, like any other Microsoft Research project, it does offer a user forum with which it will be possible to search for information and find tutorials to create more advanced projects.ĭownload Cliplets for free to make the most of your home recordings.If you’re a Mac user, Cinemagraphs may be something you’re familiar with, as there is a software to create them. In other words, it separates the object on which the user wants to focus the attention from the other elements that could have distracted the spectator. The main idea of Cliplets is to juxtapose the movement of an object in a video over a still images from the beginning of the same video.
Separate the important object from the external elements.
Many home recordings don't transmit everything you want due to the external elements that affect it, but this can now be solved thanks to Cliplets that will allow you to center the image on the important object.
