Cinemagraph



I have been seeing a lot of articles on "Cinemagraph" these past weeks and I decided to give it a shot. It's basically a sophisticated version of traditional GIF animation and the catch is "more than a photo, but not quite a video." More precisely, a Cinemagraph is supposed to look like one of those moving pictures from Minority Report. So far, my first attempts failed. (aside from the above screenshot, I also tried the images of a flying kite, bicycle, rantan, man with his i-phone.) I believe I chose slightly complicated compositions to manipulate for this particular technique. If this works out, I would like to use it as a part of my scene. My only concern is though the process would definitely be much more time consuming than the actual shooting.
