Animating a portrait of myself with EbSynth

A quick video where I take a portrait of myself that my girlfriend drew and painted, and animate it with ebsynth.

TRANSCRIPT
"Hello, this is the first video for a while, and I wanted to share a portrait of me that my girlfriend had painted, which I really like - it's very Van Gogh.
I also wanted to show you how to quickly animate some video footage in the same style using a package called ebsynth.

The first thing you'll need is some video footage.
I've tried to replicate the angle and basic shapes of the picture for the best effect when I come to animate it.
I import the footage into Blender, crop out any jumpy movement at the beginning and move my head around a little.

Once I have a short little clip, I'll render them out as PNG.
For the sake of consistency, I'm going to render it at the same resolution as the original image, 1600x1474.
That might sound like a weird resolution, and it is - but I'll scale it accordingly to fit in the video you're watching now.

Once I have my frames all rendered in PNG, I'll import them all into eBsynth in the Video section, and the single image into the Keyframes section.
Choose a directory, and Synth.
It might take a while, so I'll pause the video here.

And voila.
Thanks for watching!"
