Vintage Postcards Animated in Unexpected Ways

We've seen digital artists take vintage photographs and give them the stereoscopic treatment, in which a 3D effect is achieved by making the elements move slightly, more so for the objects in the foreground. This is not that at all. What happens in these postcard images is the kind of thing you'd expect from a Terry Gilliam animation, in that you don't know what is going to happen at all. It's pure nonsense, but there are no giant feet crushing landscapes. However, what they did to that lighthouse seems pretty destructive.

The vintage postcards are from the Isle of Wight, a popular vacation destination in the English Channel. The video was made by Justin Mason, also known as Drivelsieve, and is actually a followup to an earlier compilation video he did using the same subject. It's just as silly.

Mason began his series of animated Isle of Wight postcards ten years ago. You can see the entire series in this playlist. -via Nag on the Lake
