From Me To You – Animated Cinemagraphs by NYC Photographer Jamie Beck
- By: Chaz Curry
Word on the streets of New York is that there is a very talented new photographer named Jamie Beck. She and her fiancée create these unique images she calls “cinemagraphs” – more than a photo, but not quite a video. Whatever they are, they’re badass.

Very cool! It’s a digital version of a similar technique I used to employ back in the days of multi-image slide tape productions 20 years ago. So simple yet so powerful. Nicely done.
Cheers…

Badass is the right term for these – they are spectacular. Can you imagine coming into someone’s home and looking at their mantle filled with family pix and having them all animated? Truly ground-breaking. Now there is a real need to create a simple, inexpensive video frame.

I am from the other side of the world. I would like to see more of those. But allways found the most shown. Do you have any other sources? It will be a great push for online-ads. I started to do something similar. But will take more practice for a filmer like me.

Thanks for posting. I wonder how this type of image could be used in other areas of photography, It would be a challenge to create a flowing bridal dress or other aspect of a Wedding. Viewing of course would need to be on line but as more and more people are viewing their photo’s online now it would be a great challenge to try. Thanks.

Chaz – I scrolled down viewing these creative images feeling as if I was in a museum of modern art. Brilliantly colored with surprising areas of movement, that must have taken time to consider the surprising response of the viewer. Thank you for bringing Jamie Beck to our attention. Blessings, Debby

This is absolutely amazing. It makes you wonder about the type of art we will be able to create with cameras in the near future!

These are great. I will have to look into doing something like this.

The subtle ones work best for this effect, the not-so-subtle ones look more like mini-videos.
