I don't live anywhere near L.A. or care about Carmageddon. I have my own highway bane of existence called the QEW. That said, if this was Carmageddon, I wish it could be Carmageddon every day.
Actually, this was much more labour-intensive than just shooting empty streets, because it was all shot without empty streets and edited in post. Great job!
Absolutely gripping time lapse video of Manhattan that makes me want to go back to NYC soon. I watched it three times in a row - in fullscreen HD mind you - and saw new things every time. Another great Vimeo moment.
I'm not going to say much here. Just go to the host Vimeo page and watch this 3 minute film clip in HD. If it doesn't re-affirm the awe-inspiring beauty of nature in you, you're a zombie.
2200 miles of the Appalachian Trail packed into five minutes. Very cool and somewhat relaxing. I'm not going to be hiking the Appalachian any time soon, but getting a glimpse gives me a new respect for the trails that exist even in our own backyards. The Bruce Trail in Ontario runs right through cities and one really has to know where they're going to not get sidetracked by a Starbucks.
Different styles and content, but cool nonetheless. Hope you enjoy marveling at the creative process in watching some of these come together:
Blu from www.blublu.org has done some incredible time lapse/real world animations over the past few years. I remember watching That's Incredible when I was a kid and seeing the epic domino runs thinking about how much time it must have taken. Then I saw some of the videos for OK Go and thought the same thing. For me, Blu takes it to an entirely new level.
Kudos to the execution of an amazing Combo.
While I'm under the influence of NyQuil and Fisherman's Friend, podcasts may be scarce for a couple of days, and many words make Anthony's head hurt. Instead, here's yet another reason to explore Vimeo. I'm diggin' it. Kinda like Koyaanisqatsi Tokyo-style... or, still stuck in my head from the Simpsons last night, Koyaani-Scratchy.
