Update: I took my camera on another trip in hopes of using it, but turns out, it broke (I think a gear inside has cracked or snapped) so I guess we'll only ever have one set of photos from it.

Analog Animated Slices of Life

...thanks to my new-to-me toy, an original Rensha Cardia, which takes 8 sequential images in the space of 2 photos on 35mm film.

⬇️ Scroll down to check out the videos and visit this Flickr album to see the originals.

About

Each individual frame is sliced and diced from the scanned photos in Photoshop. Image sequences are exported by layers, then converted to a video using ffmpeg. (I'm on a Windows ARM computer and Photoshop for ARM currently doesn't support video exports directly. I know.)

The name Renrensha is a play on the name of the camera and Run Run Shaw.
