If you thought MyHeritage’s photo animation tool, Deep Nostalgia, was great fun, you’re going to love the additional 10 movements.
If you thought seeing your ancestors blink and move their head was creepy, you should perhaps not try the new movements.
Following the huge viral success of its photo animation tool — 72 million animations in five weeks — MyHeritage yesterday released 10 additional “special” animations for Deep Nostalgia, doubling the number of animations available and allowing you to see your ancestors express a wider spectrum of gestures and emotions, for example, dance, blow a kiss, smile, and nod approval.
The special animations are available to subscribers on the Complete plan.
When you animate a photo, the initial animation is selected by default so as to match the pose and angle of the person in your photo perfectly. That initial animation is always one of the first 10 general animations and is never one of the special animations. (Without a subscription, you can try the general animations on a few photos for free.)
The special animations need to be selected manually.
The Deep Nostalgia feature is accessible from three locations:
- The Deep Nostalgia landing page (www.myheritage.com/deep-nostalgia)
- The Photos section in the family site
- The MyHeritage mobile app for iOS and Android
Selecting a special animation is not available from the landing page, which is only meant for quick animation and sharing, and is only available from the other two locations, where more advanced functionality is at your disposal.
