allanyed Posted April 4, 2021 Share #1 Posted April 4, 2021 Discovered a new (for me) website that takes any photo and animates it. I tried it with a portrait of Horatio Nelson and got what you can see on the attached. Spooky, but interesting. https://www.myheritage.com/deep-nostalgia/result/1103411981-500002 Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.

mtaylor Posted April 4, 2021 Share #2 Posted April 4, 2021 For some reason, the site truncates your link to only go to the homepage. The examples they show do look spooky to say the least. druxey, Rik Thistle and HIPEXEC 3 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanyed Posted April 4, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Mark, If you get into the site, you can just insert any portrait image. I did Nelson, George Washington, and long past relatives. Seeing grandparents that I remember vividly moving and blinking was fantastic, but a bit on the creepy side. I sent the same link to a member here and he had it open right up to Nelson so you may want to give it another try. Free site unless you sign up for the premium package or premium plus which helps in building a family tree. Try this one for Phineas Pett 1570-1647 https://www.myheritage.com/deep-nostalgia/result/1103411981-500004 Edited April 4, 2021 by allanyed mtaylor 1 Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.

Chuck Seiler Posted April 4, 2021 Share #4 Posted April 4, 2021 Both links take me to the home page, regardless whether I click on the link or cut and paste into browser.

allanyed Posted April 5, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Try this one https://www.myheritage.com/deep-nostalgia and then where it says upload a photo, get any photo from your own file to enter. Or you can save the Nelson image below if you want to try that one first. Or, go to the home page, click on Family Tree then click on Animate Photos. You can then upload a pic and it will do its thing. You may have to enter your email address and a password to get started.

mtaylor Posted April 5, 2021 Share #7 Posted April 5, 2021 Fascinating what can be done... and yes,, that is a bit creepy. druxey 1 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druxey Posted April 5, 2021 Share #8 Posted April 5, 2021 Quick! Ask Phineas for his 'shipwright's secrets'! allanyed and mtaylor 2 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanyed Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted April 6, 2021 I THINK, without years of research, that the closest I could get to learning those secrets Druxey is to ask Richard Endsor. For anyone wanting to use the Heritage site, it appears that there are only several times it can be used for free without signing up for a basic plan, as I just found out. There is a 14 day free trial though, so have fun while you can. Was fun while it lasted. mtaylor 1 Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.
