About it
A video is a string of photos, and a computer can guess how far away each part of a photo is. This splash does that for every frame: a depth model (Depth Anything V2 Small) gives every spot a distance, and the video itself plays on a relief that comes toward you by as much as each part is near, sharp enough to read small text (Splats rebuilds it from splats). It opens on Sintel: her face comes forward, the room stays back.
Pick another sample clip in the Splash tab (the bunny, Muybridge's horse, a dragon, a bridge and robot, or a machine; Blender Foundation, CC BY, and the horse is public domain), or open your own GIF or video of any length. It is read on your device, the model (about 27 MB) loads the first time, and nothing is uploaded. A long video plays while its depth is worked out. Depth sets the relief, and Speed plays the clip slower or faster, sound included. Show the original puts the flat clip in a corner, frame for frame.
