A U.S. filmmaker has emulated the ageing process by 'creating a person' called Danielle, who subtly changes in front of viewers' eyes from childhood into old age.

一位美國電影制片人近日模擬了一個名叫丹妮爾的女性的變老過程，觀眾可以觀察丹妮爾從幼到老每一步的精細變化。

The five minute video was created by Anthony Cerniello and is a refinement of the 'photo-a-day' concept that was popular a few years ago.

這個五分鐘的視頻由安東尼-瑟尼羅制作完成，他是從幾年前很流行的“每日拍一張照片”的概念中得到這個想法。

Mr Cerniello's 'Danielle' project was not shot over a lifetime, but is made up of photographs of family members of different generations who were photographed in similar conditions at roughly the same time.

瑟尼羅的“丹妮爾”項目并不是拍攝跨越一個人一生的照片，而是由家族中不同成員的照片組成。這些家人幾乎同時在相似的條件下拍攝這些照片。

The video unsurprisingly starts with Danielle as a small girl and at first it is as if nothing is happening, but if viewers watch carefully they can see the ageing process effecting the girl's features very slowly.

視頻不出意外地以小姑娘丹妮爾開頭。一開始看著視頻覺得似乎沒什么變化，但如果仔細看下去，觀眾會看出女孩面容細微緩慢的老化過程。

It is uncanny as viewers realise the face is changing but it is hard to pinpoint exactly what is going on and if the video is paused, the image just looks like a regular photographic portrait of a moment captured in time.

不可思議的是，觀眾能覺察出臉部的變化，但卻很難確切地描述出變化是怎么發生的。如果讓視頻暫停的話，圖像看起來就是一張常規定格某一刻的照片而已。

The filmmaker, who usually edits commercials and music videos for bands like the Kings of Leon, said: "The idea was that something was happening but you can't see it but you can feel it, like ageing itself."

瑟尼羅作為電影制作人，經常編輯廣告片或是為萊昂國王之類的樂隊制作音樂錄像，他說：“我的想法是每時每刻都有事發生，我們能感覺到，卻不一定能看到，就像一天天地變老這件事一樣。”
