Trick Photography Sussed!

Last month we made a post about the Photographer Denis Darzacq and his amazing photo's of people seemingly floating in weird spaces, like in the middle of a supermarket or falling from buildings. Well look away now if you don't want to know how it was done!

That's right! We did a bit of searching and found the answer. Originally our Firebox design team were sure that the Photographer had taken two images of the same area: one photo with no one in it, another photo with somebody jumping on a trampoline with the trampoline in shot, then merged the two photographs and erased the trampoline out. A time consuming process!

Well the answer is actually easier then we thought. It seems he got the help of some amazing young dancers from Paris. We were all fooled but its actually a nicer answer and makes his images even more powerful.

See for yourself!
