Fashion Portrait Study

Summary

A motion study cycling 3D fashion portraits through photorealistic, normal-map, glitch, and AI segmentation aesthetics in a hypnotic loop.

Visual description

A vertical portrait of a figure in sunglasses and a pale oversized coat, with only a rectangular strip of the face rendered photographically. The head and neck are replaced by wavy bands of SMPTE-style color bars in yellow, blue, red, magenta, white and cyan. Small labeled bounding boxes read glasses, eye, nose, mouth, ear and earring over the face, and the coat and background are rendered in glossy iridescent green, blue and violet gradients.

Key takeaway

Overlay machine-vision style labeled boxes on a portrait and let the unrecognized areas dissolve into glitchy color bars. Showing the same subject in multiple render passes makes the technology itself the visual.
