New York City Footage Digitally Altered to Look Like a Gorgeous Slow Moving Watercolor Painting

Filmmaker and VFX artist Danil Krivoruchko of Deep Flow Slow, has created the gorgeous short film “NYC Flow” for which he shot footage of different areas around New York City and processed it through a neural network algorithm to make it appear to be a beautiful watercolor painting that was moving and flowing in slow motion around the city.

NYC FLOW is an exploration of video processing techniques introduced by neural-style code. Made for Deep Slow Flow project.

Here’s the source footage that he used when making the film.
