[@Kanguin2]

Loved this video, mad respect for the dedication to this consistency. Things that stuck out to me: - The sudden point in your 20s where your head just got longer - The dancing mustache around the 1:30 mark - The beginning of the hoodie phase in your late 30s, when never wearing one previously (moved somewhere colder?) - Next to no acne in your 20s, but crazy forehead acne from your mid 30s onward (major sympathies) - Easily fought back facial hair early on, but by your late 30s the mustache gets harder and harder to kill (exaggerating for dramatic effect lol) And overall it's wild to realize that as we as people age, even if our face shape and skin texture might not change, the even-ness of skin coloration goes down as we get older. In our 20s our skin is mostly even-toned, but by our 40s, some areas are ruddier and some are chalkier/paler. It's fascinating, I wonder why that change happens. Overall, phenomenal dedication to this project, and the presentation here was fun to watch!

I had the same thought. Consistent background: blank white wall. No guarantee it's the SAME blank white wall, but it looked pretty consistent to me! And sure, you can crop a bit to make sure the eyes line up, but there was VERY little variation in the tilt of the head in any direction, and the focus was the same. Has he used the exact same camera this whole time, to make sure the focal length is the same? This is one of, if not the most, consistent one of these I've seen. Usually there will be a change in background when people go on vacation or move houses or something, and their lighting or camera might change. This whole setup was 100% consistent! That's impressive!

How do you keep the face still can you show a how to do this correctly? Your transitions are so smooth. I wanna learn.

[@randfee]

eyes are still because each frame is manually shifted for the eyes to match I guess :P. Besides that, keep using same focal lengths with same camera chip size (or do the match) and match distance and you're good to go.

[@danpro4519]

It's astounding how consistently similar each shot is for 25 years. The pose, the position, the expression. Wow. Props, man. Mega props.

its crazy watching all this through i never noticed a difference really in the face but when you look from beginning to end the frames its crazy the change that took place. just goes to show how if it changes slow enough you really dont notice

[@fredflintstone505]

Even compressing 25 years down to 5 minutes, it's still difficult to see the changes even watching it at 2x speed. But jumping from the beginning frame to various frames to the end the difference is profound. It would be nice to see it compressed even more than 2.5 minutes.

There are also tehniques used in post production to center the photos. It looks surreal but if you'd actually try it, you would get the same effect.

I found it fascinating how the acne travelled across your face like stars in the sky. Amazing dedication to do something every day for 25 years. We are the same age.

This is 9,125 days/pictures. Try running it at 2x speed. To get an even faster view, run it manually with your finger along the red progress line on the bottom. We used to think that our cartilage never stopped growing, but it actually does when we're about 20. What you’re seeing are the effects of skin changes and gravity. Other parts of your body change in the same ways, but your ears and nose are more noticeable, so it's interesting to watch his nose and ears begin their lengthening that will accelerate somewhere between the ages of 35-50 for most people. However, our skulls (and pelvises) do continue to grow slightly so you can see the forehead lengthen somewhat. Your skin, cartilage, and muscles, however, continue to change even after your skeleton has stopped growing. Weight changes, pregnancy, changes in fitness levels, and injuries all change your body throughout your life. In addition, time weakens the connective tissues in skin and cartilage. This weakening is what leads to changes in your ears and nose. At about 2:00, is where he starts losing the baby fat in the cheeks and you begin to see the laugh creases at the sides of his mouth. At 4:10 you see creases begin next to the nose. This is a fascinating look into the development of the human face from being a young man to one approaching his middle years and the effect gravity has on the human body. Bravo sir! One has to admire this kind of commitment, never taking a break or a day off. That thumbnail though! 🫡🫡🫡
