Note - Creating a graphic animation and rendering it to video in After effects will give you better results. This is just a quick way to turn Photoshop Gifs into video files for testing purposes.

 

Decide on the object you will be augmenting. The size in important. Is it a business card, a birthday card, a mask, a page in a magazine, a shirt?

 

Create an animated GIF with Photoshop that fits the object. This GIF could be made of appropriated video, an illustration, a photo – anything.

 

When finished, export the GIF as a video – file/export/render video (not web for legacy).

 

Go to Zappar and upload your video. You can make it play in a loop, or just once.

 

Download a Zapcode and ad the code to your Photoshop file. Save it as a jpeg.

 

In Zappaar, click edit tracking image – upload the jpeg you just made with the zapcode.

 

Preview in Zappar and resize your image.

 

Print the jpeg. Tweek as necessary.
