These photobooth animations are the work of Nicholas Osborn of Square America. He describes them as: “a jittery, flickering, Frankensteinian attempt to bring old photos back to life.”

I like ‘curl’ she looks cheeky
These are fabulous. The contrast between perky Curl and shy Glasses is almost painful to behold! One so sure the whole world loves her, the other not convinced anyone does.
Boy is the life of the party. And Shy (#9) reminds me of Tavi, the adorable fashion blogger. Not so shy at all.
I love these so much!
so cool! I think of doing something alike.
These are excellent! How interesting to see how some people show very little change of expression and others just pop out all over! Wonderful!
