This Is What a Donut Selfie Looks Like and It’s Kinda Cool

Let’s face it. The selfie is tired and done to death. While it’ll never truly fade from existence, there must be a fresher way to show the Internet what you look like and where you’re at. Enter the Donut Selfie.

Created by former Microsoft employee Karen Cheng, a Donut Selfie is essentially where you take your phone and set it to video mode. You then face the camera toward you in a basic selfie position. Instead of snapping a picture, you actually record in a circular donut motion starting from your face, moving your arms toward the side of your head. Hitting stop at this point you begin from the other side of your head as if to pull the phone out of your ear and continue the loop.

Once the footage is edited together, perhaps add some music, and what results is a pretty cool time jump effect. Now imagine trying one while eating multiple meals with the other hand.

Cheng uploaded two instructional videos on how to master the Donut Selfie as well as one in full-effect. Check them out below.
