This project implements the paper '’Video Textures’’ by Schodl, Szeliski, Salesin, and Essa. The aim is to create a ‘‘new type of medium’’ called a video texture, which is ‘‘somewhere between a photograph and a video’’. The idea is to input a video which has some repeated motion (the texture), such as a flag waving, rain, or a candle flame. The output is a new video that infinitely extends the original video in a seameless way. In practice, the output isn’t really infinte, but is instead looped using a video player and is sufficiently long as to appear to never repeat.
