Question: What’s the best way to give your photos that extra “pop” without going to full video?
Answer: Cinemagraph Pro by Flixel
The Consumer Electronics Show was overflowing with cameras, apps, and video recording devices all with new technical elements to push them forward. For example, Panasonic was showcasing their Lumix GH 4K Pro Photo Performance Camera (available now for $1999.) The resolution was stunning. Combine that with Cinemagraph Pro and you’ve got vibrant, living photos that move — subtly or otherwise — pulled directly from your video footage.
Here’s how Cinemagraph Pro works:
- Import your video (while it doesn’t have to be shot with the Lumix 4K Pro Photo camera, it definitely doesn’t hurt.)
- Select a still you’d like to edit and have a ball with effects, trimming, looping, etc.
- Export as either an HD quality movie or an animated gif and prepare for your friends to be amazed.
The effects on the finished photo are subtle, yet elegant without taking away from the overall image. It’s just enough to give the right accent to make a good photo a great one.
Available now for $100, Cinemagraph Pro is an amazing tool for any photo and video enthusiast regardless of skill level. With a Panasonic Lumix GH4 Camera, Cinemagraph Pro and the sleek, Seagate Seven, no one will be able to stop your photo kung fu!
