Stunning Video of Old Cities Created Using Old Photographs

Alexey Zakharov brings black-and-white streets to life like you've never seen before

You've gotta see this. Using what we assume was the camera projection feature in 3ds Max, digital artist Alexey Zakharov has created some stunningly real-looking videos of long-gone urban scenes, using scans of old photos of New York, Boston and Washington, D.C. as his starting point. Take a look:

"The Old New World" (Photo-based animation project) from seccovan on Vimeo.

New Yorkers among you: Do you recognize the locations of the Manhattan shots? In particular there's a shot of the famed "Bloody Angle" that sent chills up my spine.

Moscow-based Zakharov calls the project "The Old New World." Here's to hoping he creates more!
