Details. The attention paid to those tiny nuggets of information can transform a simple story into an epic tale. And details are what Loopsie is all about.
By combining a photo with a short video clip, the app creates a so-called cinemagraph that highlights a small, moving part in the picture.
To shoot an eye-catching cinemagraph, it’s important to focus on the right idea, and with Loopsie that’s all you need to think about. Forget tripods and stable surfaces for your iPhone: the built-in stabilisation algorithm will counterbalance the shakiness of your hands, no matter the intended effect you had in mind.
When you get to snapping, it’s really as simple as aligning the camera with the action, shooting a short video, drawing with your finger around the part of the image that you’d envisioned to be moving and then letting the app work its magic. And voila: the fascinating result can be shared on social media right away.
If you want to create even more detailed “living photos”, opt for the app’s optional subscription that unlocks special effects like light trails, infinite loops and long exposure, along with other creative tools to play with the movement of water, clouds and people. All subscription options come with a free trial, so you can experiment right away.
