Wanna see something freaky? I've been seeing this video posted left and right on social media over the past couple of days, and I finally took a moment to watch it. Whaaaaaat.
Take five minutes to watch this short video, entitled Danielle. Watch the whole thing, and don't skip ahead. Turn up the sound. And watch a human being age a lifetime in a matter of moments. The effect is slow, and you barely notice it happening... but it's definitely happening. You just feel it. Super weird and awesome:
They grow up so fast. The video was actually created from composites of several portraits taken at a family reunion, from youngest cousins to oldest relatives, and animated with computer effects. The result is this video, an almost-still portrait that ages so creepily, you're only vaguely aware that it's even happening.
