# Retro Photos Animated in 3D Joshua Heineman's 3D Awesomeness (ANIMATION) By Going Like Sixty | Published 2008-06-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manipulating-photos-for-fun-3d-possible-with-any-picture References: [newlaunches](http://www.newlaunches.com/archives/adding_the_third_dimension_to_archival_pictures.php) & [lala.cursivebuildings](http://lala.cursivebuildings.com/tagged/reaching) Artist [Joshua Heineman](http://lala.cursivebuildings.com/tagged/reaching) has figured out how to bring old pictures to animated life. Old geezers shaking? So what's so hot with this? In short, the artist can make [3D photos from any photo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sharp-model) by making a [gif animation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tooncrafter). He added and extra dimension to the original picture and then shook his CPU to make them jiggle and probably cause epileptic seizures or at the very least motion sickness. Still cool. Anything that turns camera shake into an art form is OK in my book. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **3D Retro Photos:** There is opportunity to create a new service where users can transform their old photos into animated 3D masterpieces - **Motion Art:** There is opportunity to explore creating art through the movement of the subjects in a photo - **Camera Shake Art:** There is opportunity to create art from unintentional camera movements ### Sectors Adopting This - **Photography:** The photography industry can leverage this trend to transform traditional photos and offer new products and services - **Art:** The art industry can embrace this trend and create new forms of art using movement and technology - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can use this trend to create visually dynamic content for film, television, and streaming services ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Photo Animation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/revivifyai.md) - [3D-Printed Flip Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stl-sculptures.md) - [Photo Animation Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a1art.md) - [Desktop GIF Displayers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyber-cube.md) - [Free-Floating Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looking-glass-gen2.md) - [Time-Altering Digital Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/time-machine-feature.md) - [Quad-Lens GIF Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moment-3d-camera.md) - [Physics-Informed Digital Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motion-sculpture.md) - [Ai Hologram Companions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animaview.md)
