Bringing the best of both still photography and the moving image together, the cinemagraph appears like a photo with elements of the scene moving in a seemless loop.
Unlike the lower quality GIF format, cinemagraphs are displayed as short HD or 4K video clips that autoplay without any jumps in between. This makes them perfect for webpage backgrounds, social media posts and ads, digital display screens right up to billboards!
Unlike a traditional photo, cinemagraphs have the ability to invite peoples attention with eye catching movements that unlike traditional video doesn't 'demand' peoples attention. Call it the gentle art of persuasion.
