A cinemagraph is a still photograph in which a minor, repeated movement occurs. Visual Graphics Artist, Kevin Burg, began experimenting with the .gif format in this style in 2009, but it wasn’t until he partnered with photographer, Jamie Beck, earlier this year that this artistic venue was refined. The technique adds a cinematic quality & dramatic impact while maintaining at its soul, the principles of traditional photography.

Starting in-camera, the artists take a traditional photograph & combine a living moment into the image through the isolated animation of multiple frames.
