Hauntingly Blurred Portraits

Artists Shinseungback Kimyonghun has Created Movie-Themed Photos

It is difficult to dehumanize humans, but the artistic group of Shinseungback Kimyonghun has created terrifying portraits of people from famous movies.

By utilizing a new software that uses facial recognition during a movie, they have created eerily strange movie portraits. The software takes a picture of a face in every 24 frames, and then makes a compilation of those faces that attempts to evoke the feeling of the film. They have used movies such as 'Black Swan,' 'Avatar' and 'Kill Bill.' Although these pictures do resemble the characters in the film, the photo is still an eerie depiction of what a human looks like. It is tough to determine whether or not the overall feeling of the movie has been correctly replicated, but Shinseungback Kimyonghun has definitely been able to create haunting portraits that won't soon be forgotten.
