In the fashion system, things do change—styles come and go—but the process by which things change is always the same. Subversion, appropriation, commodification, dissemination; system processes. Even though the concept of animated GIFs is as old as the Internet, the ones circling around the web are often tacky and low brow. So forget about bling-bling animations and macro-overlays, these GIFs are of a different class. It is more than a photo, but not quite a video. Here's movement in everything and by capturing that plus the great things about a still photograph you get to experience what a video has to offer without the time commitment a video requires.
I find this technique fascinating. GIF images have existed as long as I can remember but adopting it and apply in fashion photography is quite amazing.
This is amazing. I once did a GIFs image of a friend for fun, and i really love it. It was a fun experiment. Looking at this makes me wonder how do they create this.
ReplyDeleteMy gues is that they have these variety of flowers that's floating in a circular motion in a space by a fan. Then the photographer takes continuous images of that.what do u think!
