# the second one was a lot easier
I cloned areas where the guy was not present until I got a clean background layer.

Then I erased the background from each layer where the subject was progressing (50 of them in this case).

Then, along with the clean background layer, I displayed every 10th layer so I could see 5 instances of the moving subject. This was copied to a single frame.

I repeated this 9 more times while displaying the next 'every 10th layer'

1) xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0
2) xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0x
3) xxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xx
4) xxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxx
5) xxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxx
6) xxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxx0xxxxxxxxx0xxxxx
etc...

when I was done, I had 10 layers that endlessly looped. One nice thing about this type of image is that you can present 50 different positions of motion with only 10 layers

# this is a different pic, but it's the same procedure and effect..

you can hide all but 2 layers anywhere to see how the 'difference' layer blending makes alignment easier
