Morphing refers to the visual effect of transforming one image or object into another. This technique is commonly used in film, animation, and digital art to create smooth transitions and illusions of change. The process typically involves a series of intermediate frames that gradually alter the shape, color, and texture of the source image to match the target image. Specialized software is employed to map corresponding points or features between the two images, guiding the interpolation process. Morphing can be applied to still images, creating a sequence that shows a gradual transformation, or it can be used in video to seamlessly blend one scene or character into another. The term "morph" itself comes from the Greek word "morphe," meaning form or shape. Its application has evolved significantly with advancements in computer graphics, allowing for increasingly realistic and complex transformations. While initially labor-intensive, modern tools have made morphing more accessible for various creative projects.
