Photography Vs Cinemagraphs Vs Plotagraphs
Usually, people are attracted towards good photos. They love taking selfies, photos of nature, their surroundings, their loved ones and sharing their moment or storing them as their memento. High-quality photography is even used in the advertisement in order to promote the sales of their product. Photography is the still image that is captured using cameras that may be stored in digital format or in some sort of negative or positive image on a paper base.
But these photographs are slowly being replaced by “Cinemagraphs” and “Plotagraphs”. The working mechanism of these two techniques varies and are widening the gap in daily basis. Cinemagraphs is one of the unique technique that is used to bring the certain part of the photo into life, thus making the photo more realistic and lively. At first, the video is taken and then edited in order to select some portion of the image that will be in motion. This results to produce a motion file. Once the video is edited, making any change to the source requires reworking of the full process.
Whereas, plotagraphs begins with the still image. Various instructions and control points are then added to the image, designed to create motion in the image file to produce the motion file. Slowly plotagraph is replacing the market of photographs and cinemagraphs as they can be performed easily with some knowledge of photography and illustrator.
