Step 6Bringing it All Together
Now you have all of the photos that you need. Here is exactly what you want to do:
1) Stare at the focal point of the inverted/negative color image for about 15 seconds.
2) Have the black and white photo appear, seamlessly, immediately after that 15 seconds.
3) Continue to stare at the focal point after this transition. You will see the black and white photo in color (unless you are colorblind)!
4) Keep your eyes on the photo, but switch your view to another part of the picture. Stunningly, you will see that it is black and white.
A video editing program is really helpful to use with this illusion. Just import all of the pictures into the editing program, except for the original color image. Drag the inverted/negative photo onto the timeline first and stretch it out so that it plays for about 15 seconds. Then drag the black and white version of the original photo onto the timeline and place it right next to that. Dont' get fancy and use any transition effects in between here. Just let it switch to black and white instantly. The amount of time that you keep the black and white photo playing is up to you, but I let it go for about 10-15 seconds or so.
Again, here is the full effect of the illusion in living color (or at least it appears to be):
1) Stare at the focal point of the inverted/negative color image for about 15 seconds.
2) Have the black and white photo appear, seamlessly, immediately after that 15 seconds.
3) Continue to stare at the focal point after this transition. You will see the black and white photo in color (unless you are colorblind)!
