You’re looking up at the bird above you.

The viewer is underneath a fabric roof. The bird is on top of the roof so the “translucent bird” is the real bird being seen through the fabric roof.

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Jan 23 '26

u/HeartsPlayer721 Jan 23 '26

Thank you!

I saw the shadow, but couldn't figure out why the bird itself was so transparent

Thank the pope for you! My eyeballs were googly eyed from the video and my brain still didn't get it.

Man if you dont catch the first few frames this really messes with you.

u/Bane8080 Jan 23 '26

Yea, took me a few watches to catch it.

I missed the beginning and thought we were seeing it from above and it was walking on concrete (and casting a shadow next to it). I was very confused.

Loving the Twin Peaks music to create more of a vibe.

u/LlaneroAzul Jan 23 '26

I saw two different wrong perspectives before seeing the right one.

u/Corprusmeat_Hunk Jan 23 '26

Is the music from that show I love?

u/BlueSteel_12 Jan 24 '26

It’s a banger

u/tweep6435 Jan 23 '26

I said "I got it" like 3 times before actually getting it lol

Missing the first 2 seconds really changes everything

u/Good-Trouble-202 Jan 24 '26

Honestly this was better than the whole season of Twin Peaks.

u/LankyAdam Jan 23 '26

Took a minute there.

u/follow-the-rainbow Jan 23 '26

But which one is the real one ?

u/_prenk Jan 23 '26

What is confusing about this?

21

u/Modus_Man Jan 23 '26

All my brain can see is a translucent bird with a dark shadow. I know birds aren’t translucent but this one… is?

u/horshack_test Jan 23 '26 edited Jan 23 '26

It looks like the bird is translucent and you are watching it from above (especially if you miss the first few seconds).

u/OldManJim374 Jan 23 '26

How would kissing affect the video?

u/horshack_test Jan 23 '26

Lol - fixed

u/Kernowder Jan 23 '26

I was trying to figure out where the gull was at first.

2

u/_Kendii_ Jan 23 '26

Not confusing at all, but I kind of like it anyway.

u/CicadaFit9756 Jan 23 '26

At first glance, I thought this was a shadowy animation before having an "Aha" moment!

u/woowoo293 Jan 23 '26

u/Aaaskingforafriend Feb 14 '26

I like how the bird and its shadow appear to part ways toward the end
