One clip in. A layered statement out.
The Chinchilla Trace takes a single clip and turns it into a looping, layered motion edit — one figure walking a shape you choose, leaving a trail of frozen copies of herself, inside a softly blurred scene with a drifting field of icons and a two-tone glow that follows her every move.
