The Y2K Halloween flash look, as a video of you
This year’s Halloween photo trend is a throwback: a 2000s house party at night, lit by a hard on-camera flash like a disposable camera, film grain, and a small costume touch — cat ears, plastic fangs. RefVid turns it into a short clip of you, with your own face under the flash.

The prompt
What the studio fills in for you. Your subject takes the place in brackets; you can change any of it.
- The look of a 2004 disposable-camera party photo: a night-time Halloween house party, bright direct on-camera flash light, slightly overexposed skin, a hard shadow on the wall behind, heavy film grain, string lights in the background. [you] wearing black cat ears stands by the doorway holding a red paper cup, turns to the camera, laughs and throws up a peace sign. No light flare on the face.
