OSS 117 vs Macron (vs lions) – Thin-plate spline model animation
Amazing what can be achieved with Thin-Plate Spline Motion Model for image animation (TPSMM)!
Video prepared using the following tools:
1. Background removal: http://remove.bg
2. TPSMM running with Visual Studio Code
GitHub repository: https://github.com/yoyo-nb/Thin-Plate...
3. Video edition: DaVinci Resolve 18.6
For the video edition, given the camera's movement, I used the Planar Tracker (Fusion tool in DaVinci Resolve).

John F. Kennedy vs Emmanuel Macron
On January 20, 1961, John Fitzgerald Kennedy delivered his inaugural address as the newly elected President of the United States. The highlight of his speech, and its most memorable phrase, was: "Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country." In this powerful statement, Kennedy employed a rhetorical device known as 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝘀𝗺𝘂𝘀, which emphasizes the contrast between closely related statements by reversing the structure of two phrases.
