Overview

So this part of the project was an attempt to recreate the dolly zoom (the most famous example of which is from Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo"). This was done by photographing the same object at different distances and zooms, but with the size of the object in the image kept constant, thus providing a very cool visual effect. Here are 3 scenes I recorded below using the camera on my Samsung Galaxy S7.

And here they are in GIF form!

Final Project (Part 2): Fake Miniatures

The goal of this part was to produce a tilt shift effect on a few images. So this part was done by increasingly blurring the image based on how far from the focal line the section of the image was. I have a bug in my code that make it very easy to see how I sectioned the image, producing some weird artifacts. You can see where I masked the images to produce these results. I then saturated these images, producing the following results.

What I learned

Its interesting to me how the automatic stitching managed to produced results that were better (second stitch), worse(first stitch), and the same (third stitch which failed both times in the same exact way)
