This creative transition trend uses a spinning ceiling fan to create the illusion that a scene, outfit or person changes with every rotation. As the fan blades pass the camera, each transition reveals a new look or setting.
While many creators use AI to create the effect, others recreate it through real-life filming and editing. This involves clever camera positioning, precise timing and multiple takes to achieve seamless transitions, making the execution just as impressive as the final result.
