I'm not sure what these are called, but I think they involve fresnel lenses or something. Anyway, I'm wondering about creating a photo that is one subject one angle and then changes to a different subject at a different angle. A) What is the term for this and B) where would I get it done?

I'm wanting to produce regular photo of a person when viewed one way, and then the same person wearing a Superman outfit viewed from a different angle.

Thanks.

Welcome to the forum khobar95.

Fresnel lenses are as far as I know used in lighthouses, whilst no doubt they do refract, they do not hold the properties that you wish to create (certainly not in a Photoshop way that I know).

It sounds more like you want a traditional holographic effect, but I don't know how to accomplish this in Photoshop.

I presume this is not what you want from your description, but I fire it out in a vain hope 3D GIF

Let us know if you get an answer elsewhere, you've got me interested too now.

When I was younger there used to be rulers with a rough surface and you could tilt them back and forth to change what was displayed.

Anyway thanks to the magic of google I found what your after.

@Hermit: I like the gifs, I forget what they are called, that are still image with only one part of it animated.
