Plotagraphy Pro: Turn any JPEG image into a beautiful GIF

Plotagraphy Pro is a new tool to add to the existing sea of photography tools, filter, and standalone applications to improve pictures. But this tool is something new and fresh which helps in making a still 'alive' using the magic of algorithms and prediction. The tool runs inside a web browser and it takes minutes for a person to turn a still JPEG image into an animated 'alive' photograph with moving elements. The new version can either be a GIF image, MP4, or MOV file that can be uploaded anywhere, ready to garner attention.Trey Ratcliff, one of the most popular photographers has been testing the Plotagraph Pro app for some time. He has made a short video outlining how the software works including an in-depth piece on his website.The unique selling point of this tool is the ease of use of the tool along with the subtle animation which makes it natural along with a short time-lapse effect. The software makes it redundant to shoot a video or click multiple frames of the same scene and then stacking them in image processing tool to align and correct all the images. The tool is marketed as an alternative to time and CPU intensive tasks by giving a cheaper and much simpler alternative to cinemagraph creation as reported by PetaPixel.It was created by an artist Troy Plota to make such short animations easy. Currently, the tool is extremely limited to a handful of photographers and organisations. According to the website, the software has been used by 1218 'happy customers' with 24 awards at the time of writing. The creator of this tool has introduced a special pre-launch price of this web-app at $299, which is $50 off than the pegged final price. After signing up, the services gives you access for one year along with 10GB online storage space. The company is targeting photographer as well as advertisers to leverage the creative freedom given by this tool. The tool is a perfect fit for social media advertising, outdoor displays, websites, landscape photography and digital billboards.Making a GIF out of a single image does introduce some limitations but overall the ability in itself is remarkable. According to Plota, companies like Chevrolet, Coca-Cola, Pepsi and Airbnb have already put the software platform in use as reported by Digital Trends.
