GIFs

GIFs, or Graphics Interchange Format, is kind of my new obsession. Okay, it's not that new an obsession but you get what I'm trying to say.

I shot at an event a while ago (pictures can be found in the portfolio) and decided to try my hand at making GIFs. I don't think these are going to be considered GIFs cos they're way to big a file to be able to play on tumblr, but at least it plays like it should. We all have to start somewhere right? I personally prefer the greyscale ones because their file sizes are smaller, and the quality is better because they seem to use less colours (but it feels like the same number of colour swatches, just that they have a larger variety of tones than their coloured counterparts).

If you're interested to try your hand at making your own GIFs, I found this instructional very helpful, partly because I'm using the same Photoshop version as the person giving instructions. Happy GIF-fing!
