Fauxtographs: They think it’s a picture, you know it’s a video

The Fauxtographs channel on Vimeo is very funny. It’s the channel where you can watch video after video of people who thought they were being photographed (in a still image), but were really being recorded on video instead. The reactions are pretty amusing.

I’ve certainly done this plenty of times to unsuspecting subjects. It’s always great to see people pose and freeze for no reason whatsoever.

Here’s a classic example.
