Today, we’re going to run through a few steps on how to make your own cinemagraph with an easy-to-understand program with help from Cliplets. Well, let us tell you a secret it is not very hard to do.Ĭheck out this picture of a skateboard wheel we did in less than 5 minutes! Although it is not the most exciting picture, it sure has a cool effect. You might have checked out our post on cinemagraphs and are now wondering how to create your own.
