Videos are awesome for capturing and sharing all the magic of moving scenes.
They also allow you to capture a “decisive moment” through a method made famous by the photographer Henri-Cartier Bresson. This precious moment is preserved through both the spontaneity of the scene and the intuitive sensitivity of the person who took the photo.
Yet how can you extract this “decisive moment” from a video in order to create and then enhance a photo?
Today, there is just one software program capable of such a technological feat: HDRinstant
Developed by a passionate photographer with almost 50 years of experience, it allows all professionals, semi-pros, or advanced amateurs to select the best moment from a video and then enhance it in HDR (High Dynamic Range) to accentuate its realness.
Here’s how it works:
Through a video sequence or a series of burst images, the software creates long exposure by compiling a multitude of images.
In concrete terms, the users choose their frame (their “decisive moment”) from a video. HDRinstant then combines this frame with several frames that precede and follow this one.
Finally, they get an enhanced image of the chosen moment, thanks to a
“morphing” technique.
Jacques Joffre explains:
“This process of compiling images from a video is completely new, but it has already proven its worth! Most notably, Google uses it in their smartphones.”
