snake charmer

this was supposed to be a cinemagraph / animated GIF but for some reason this site is scrambling it so look at it here

I watched several youtube tutorials about how to make a cinemagraph which were all different and in the end I got really confused and my son had to sort it out for me!

gorgeous snake - will watch the animation too

You are a charmer. I am absolutely sure that the snake will dance with you, even just with your waving hand. Looking forward to seeing the animated version.

@houdiniem I looked up snake charmers and I think they hypnotise them more by the movement of the flute than the sound...trippy

[kali]

@annied @yaorenliu a very modest attempt at a cinemagraph, you should google them, they are great

[Annie D]

@kali66 I hope to have time to do that

[David Lee]

great pov, level of the snake looking up at the charmer

[Simply Amanda]

This reminds me of Alice and Wonderland...the hookah smoking caterpillar for some reason. And that is animated. Fun one, Kali!

Kali, nice work around! I love the cinema graphs for the added element of a dynamic picture! You can do them manually with Photoshop, but there are some tools to make it easier as well. Check out https://www.flixel.com.
