First off, the EG Conference is awesome. If you haven’t heard of it yet, you’re not alone. It may be the best-kept secret in the world of conferencing and unlike any other gathering you’ve been to. But those who come know that EG is the touchstone for innovators in just about every imaginable field, and each year, the conference is simply unforgettable. The people who attend EG are makers and doers of extraordinary things. They are breakers of boundaries and explorers of frontiers and busters of myths. They are inventors and educators, artists and designers, writers and thinkers, scientists and engineers, musicians, magicians, the young and old, the famous and the undiscovered, full of wonder, curiosity, and surprises.

Last year, Flixel joined pro photographer Asa Mathat to produce a series of living portraits for the EG speakers. The outcomes were both unique and personal to each individual. The speakers and guests we’re mesmerized by the end results. Check them all out here, and read the accompanying blog here. Everyone was so pleased with the living photos that The EG requested to again create more cinemagraph portraits that inspire, engage and amaze, as much as the speakers themselves do.

With the Panasonic team-Tom Curley and Suzette Allen-and photographer Asa Mathat, this year was yet another success. A whole new batch of speakers, and a whole new batch of creative opportunities. See all of the 2015 EG cinemagraphs here.

With the creative mind of Asa Mathat, and the intuitive creation in Cinemagraph Pro, the possibilities for these portraits were endless. It is an honour to have our software, Cinemagraph Pro, used for a second time in the creation of these quirky and mesmerizing living photos. Cinemagraphs are becoming more widely known, and it’s great to see them being used in new and exciting ways.
