Google is reportedly testing an on-demand cinematic effect feature in its ‘Google Photos’ , a photo sharing and storage service.
According to IANS, the option to create cinematic photos on the fly has appeared for some users.
The cinematic photo creator can be found in Google Photos‘ Library tab under the ‘Utilities’ option.
Users can now choose a photo and specify the duration of the resulting video, and the app will create a slow-motion zoom animation of that image.
Furthermore, the quality of the effect will be determined by the image used.
Meanwhile, in February of this year, Google launched its AI-powered ‘Magic Eraser’ tool in Photos for Google One subscribers (both Android and iOS) and all Pixel users.
