You can have it repeat or bounce and you can set the speed from 0.5 to 2.0 times the original speed. As soon as you start painting, you’ll see the motion from the loop re-appear in the painted areas. Cinemagraph Pro will colour the whole still image - no more looping will be shown in this mode - purple and you’ll be able to paint away the stills mask with a customisable brush. When you’re satisfied with the loop and still image, the Mask icon will take you to the second step of the creation process. This is incredibly important for studio photographers who want to retouch their model before adding motion to it. The new still will automatically overwrite the original. If your still image needs editing in an image editor such as Photoshop, you can export the still from the dedicated image well in the bottom left, edit the image and import it back within Cinemagraph Pro. However, you can later move the still image to any frame you want, even if it’s outside the loop. The still image indicator will move with it. In order to set your scene, you can move the 10 second loop trimmer to anywhere you want in the footage. Cinemagraph allows you to create 10 second or less loops. When your footage is imported in Flixel’s app, you’ll end up in the Trim view with the first 10 seconds of your clip looping and the first frame taken to be your still image. I just couldn’t synchronise the car and camera moving forward with enough precision… This is where I found setting up a scene to be far more difficult than editing with Cinemagraph Pro. The idea was to have a still of the car and only the wheels turning around. The camera sat on a slider, while I pushed both car and cam with a ruler. I also tried creating a cinemagraph by simultaneously moving the car and the camera.
CINEMAGRAPH PRO 2.0 WINDOWS
For my review, I used a model car that I lit up through its windows using a torch that was facing the camera (see the videos below). Part of the scene should move to add back the motion in the living photograph.įor example, a model sitting with her face towards the camera and her wind blowing in the air. The footage preferably has a motionless subject that serves as the photo part of the cinemagraph. Cinemagraph Pro threw an error message.Ĭinemagraph Pro is an app that requires you to first import your footage - not a still photo, but video footage - of up to 4K resolution. I found that out by trying to import a GoPro clip that I’d first exported to Cineform, wrapped in a Quicktime. If you’re using an AVCHD camera, for example, you’ll need a way to transcode your clip to the right codec.
CINEMAGRAPH PRO 2.0 MOVIE
In fact, after playing with this application for a week, I only have one point of criticism: the app supports only two movie codecs for import - and I do mean codecs, not wrappers: QuickTime and MP4. What isn’t easy is to shoot the video that makes for a great cinemagraph, but everything that comes after that is child’s play with Flixel Photo’s app. Cinemagraph Pro makes it dead easy.įlixel Photo’s Cinemagraph Pro enables you to create cinemagraphs in the most simple way possible.
Creating a cinemagraph with a NLE such as Final Cut Pro X is tedious and difficult. After having created a cinemagraph, you end up with a video or animated GIF looping for 10 seconds. A cinemagraph or living photo is a hybrid illustration, partly photograph, partly video.
