Some of those gifs aren't too bad.. I kind of like the taxi reflection one. And I really like the one of the guy reading the newspaper (until you look too closely at the animation, and it looks pretty fake). Most of them are just girls with blowing hair, which is pretty lame if you ask me.

Holy poo poo that newspaper one is amazing. How did he make gifs without all everything going weird? Mine always go to poo poo quality. Oh man I really want to do it. How though? Is it from video? Or some ridiculous fast shots? Bape Culture fucked around with this message at 17:04 on May 2, 2011 |

Probably just buffered shots, cutting the parts they want animated out and compositing them over a base image. I assume some manual pixel pushing is done to smooth things out. They've been getting some media attention lately, look up "Kevin Burg" if you want. Here, he claims the intricate ones take 'about a day' to make: http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2011/04/how-jamie-beck-and-kevin-burg-create-their-animated-gifs/237404/

That'd be perfect for that lovely online edition of Vogue they did. I do like the photos/animations though... very well done.

The only way those would be any creepier is if the heads started spinning. The frozen smile on the brownie pouring one looks like it could be a "Black Hole Sun" insert.

Here's one that does it with movie frames: http://iwdrm.tumblr.com/xzzy posted:Probably just buffered shots, cutting the parts they want animated out and compositing them over a base image. I assume some manual pixel pushing is done to smooth things out. Doesn't continuous shooting top out at like 10fps on the best cameras, and wouldn't that make for visibly choppy motion?

It would look choppy, but around 6fps is where the brain starts to interpret it as motion rather than a series of discrete images.

Yes, but I think they do a lot of massaging of the animation. They have a few gifs on their blog that look like they used the lasso tool and copied it to a new layer, so I doubt they're above creating new data where they need it.

I find those incredibly creepy, in the almost the exact same way that I found Myst/Riven incredibly creepy.

brad industry posted:I think part of it is he always builds those sets with weird perspectives. Like it looks correct from the camera, but that room is not squared off like a normal one would be. I think it reads as correct, but our brain somewhere knows it's not real which makes you stop and look at it a little more closely. I'll definitely have to check out the book sometime. I like things that seem right to us, but technically aren't quite right.

I think that series is a loving mess, and no, that first photo doesn't really fit in at all.

I totally agree. His series never really seem to flow, though he can do 'sense of place' pretty well in other sets. I am just curious what you guys think because he has won a Kodak Critics Prize and second place in the World Press Photo in 2008.

If you click through to his site, he has a pretty interesting setup. It seems like very typical tourism-promotion material intermixed with his incredible landscape work. I'm sure it'll only help nudge you that much closer.

If you like incredible natural light (mostly analog) photographs of beautiful women, sometimes nude, sometimes not, taken with a range from 35mm to 8x10 spanning every format in between then look through Jan Scholz's photostream on flickr - I suggest hitting 'L' for the large view when going through it. (yeah some of it is booby-town, so nsfw probably)
