But the first thing I thought of was this video by Lan Bui where he made a video out of photos. http://www.videoofthemoment.com/2007/06/pixelodeon-2007-picture-video.html seems like such a simple concept but really turned out well.

here is a snap shot of a fish i made into 3d http://blip.tv/file/575096/ here is a nother one http://blip.tv/file/521984/ done with photo shop and afer effects On Mon, Dec 8, 2008 at 1:51 AM, Rupert [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm too tired to remember the name, but I saw a British TV documentary last year that took old archive photos and subtly animated elements in the background or foreground.

Re: [videoblogging] Presenting stills in video
Yep, that's awesome. Definitely going to do some photoshopping and move individual elements like this.

I'm looking for interesting ways to incorporate still photos into video. If you've seen any interesting ways they have been presented, post a link. Looking for alternatives to the tried and true Ken Burns style. Thank you, Adam Quirk [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
