Creatively Creating Cinemagraphs

With the recent launch of my Cinemagraph Pro Tutorial course, I pushed myself think of new ways to make cinemagraphs that stood out. I love taking landscapes and turing them into cinemagraphs. I think that is what sort of put me on the map with regards to this new form of expression. However, that may not appeal to everyone and thus, I had to really get to work and try and find new cinemagraphs to make in order to really get the word out.

The Ramyeon Cinemagraph

This one really took some time. I am not a food photographer but I do love and have to take food shots from time to time. This one I used a similar technique to that of the Death Wish Coffee project that I did a little while ago. However, I really wanted to focus on the steam and that proved to be a bit of a challenge. Not only did it not steam up enough, the noodles cooled too fast. I ended up using a kettle of hot water to heat things up. However, in the end I got the shot and the loop that I wanted.

Use Adobe Spark

I always loved the style and look of those instagram-like ads. The ones that combined a beautiful font and a creative photo. I could do the photo part, but I could never get the font or the design just right. Now that adobe spark has arrived, I can make cinemagraphs that have this look and feel. In a later tutorial, I will show you how to add this to your cinemagraphs.

The Cafe Cinemagraph

Finally, I had a blast creating this one. I had first seen this kind of cinemagraph used for some awesome travel stuff and I wanted to give a subtle hint about my courses. So I went to a local coffee shop here in Ulsan and got to work. Again, it was a challenge working in such an open environment. However, I just plugged away and made a few cool cinemagraphs. Here I am just using the subtle motion of the book to draw attention into the cinemagraph.
