Photos by Romain Laurent
Aside from any of his personal and commercial projects, New York City based photographer Romain Laurent, challenges himself to create amazing animated portraits. The animation works by looping multiple images together, creating a gif, and the project continues as he posts an image a week on his tumblr page.
Each image is entirely different from the other, and each subject creates its own visual story. Laurent says that the bizarre and unique images are a low-pressure way to experiment and be creative without expectations. Specifically, he notes, “As far as the intention of the series, it’s a way for me to explore a hybrid medium, experiment and being spontaneous while still sticking to a short weekly deadline. There isn’t a common concept between each loop, I just ‘go with the flow’ and see what comes to my mind each week.”
