I am using the mac version because when you combine it with the power of a DSLR, it achieve a high quality cinemagraph. Of course, you can use their mobile apps but I find that this way produces a better result. You want to find subjects that have a consistent or repetitive movement.Ĭhoosing a subjectĬinemagraphs are all about movement and creating an illusion. Water is always a great source to start with as it is relatively consistent and repetitive. Traffic and other subjects with a bit of flow can also be great subjects for cinemagraphs. The trick is to also find something that is stationary to anchor the frame. You’ve seen the shots where you have a person frozen with just their hair blowing in the wind. That is the essence of a cinemagraph, right there. However, you need to take that and apply it to other areas of photography. Find subjects that have subtle movement, like grass blowing on a mountain meadow and use that to create an illusion of a living photo. When choosing what to shoot, you must make sure that your chosen subject of location has consistent light. The reason is that this tutorial will use video as it’s primary source for images and with video it will adapt instantly to the changing light conditions. This will produce a flicker in your cinemagraph.
Whenever you are shooting a cinemagraph, you MUST use a tripod. For other types of photography, you may get away without one, but you certainly need to use one. The reason is that you are creating an illusion of sorts. Even the tiniest movement destroys that illusion. So, you must have everything locked down. Normally, when I am shooting for a cinemagraph I set my camera to aperture priority and then turn on the video. I use the aperture to control the light in the scene. I found that for shooting landscapes that this works well. Normally for still photography you want to shoot with a smaller aperture to keep the scene sharp across the frame, but I found that for video it makes it quite dark. One way to get around this is to make a timelapse cinemagraph. For this tutorial, will will just focus on the video. Usually, I shoot between 15 to 30 seconds of video to achieve the results that I am looking for. You will not need to use all of the footage for your cinemagraph but you are looking for a sweet spot that combines all of the elements well and helps create that illusion. You may want to shoot from a few different angles at the same location to see if there is a better shot still waiting for you. Once you have your footage, you should to prep it before putting it into Flixel’s Cinemagraph Pro. While Cinemagraph Pro is entirely capable of handling basic edits, photoshop does a much better job of making the video look good. You could also make your entire cinemagraph in photoshop but I have also found that creating the final cinemagraph in Cinemagraph Pro and uploading to Flixel’s Cloud Server produces a higher quality image that can be used on blogs without compromising the quality.
