Something that is similar or can be similar is: Take the photo 3 times, Change only the exposure, So take one picture @ proper exposure then take 2 more, one @ -2 and one @ +2. Then merger the three in any decent photo app that can combine the photos, you of course need a tripod and have the person not move, but the results give an almost animated feeling.
