A really nice clip using stop motion to capture the action on the pavement outside the house. The skaters are loose and hit the card bord ramps. It is in the same manner as the earlier stop motion 'Sorry I'm Late' also with a rather urban interpretation of skating. It is really one for the screens though. Nevertheless the tricks are impressing.

Sorry I'm late
A lovely timelapse movie on an all too familiar subject, being on time. This involves sometimes quite an effort to make it thought the wilderness of everyday street life scenes and manage the different modes of transport accordingly.
In this story directed by Tomas Mankovsky the guy does quite a number of stunts to get there. Some more details can be fond on the movie page including some making of shots, to the angles right, testing the frame rates and movement of the actors and of course the casting.

Small World - the Shooting Continues
Some catching up with the Small World series produced by Dolphinners Films. It featured HERE earlier with the first three instalments. You might remember the runners in Race or the cuddling couples in Kiss or MyHometown where the shooting actually begann.
Not quite sure where this is taking us but the shooting continues. Actually it turns into a fully grown bloodbath sort of first person shooter or 'Moorhun' style (play HERE).
The series has in the mean time grown to a total of nine instalments. These being Destiny, Sneakers, Finding List - Shopping Center, Finding List - Seoul Sta. and Fireworks.
The last two are now much more engaging with the audience. In the 'Where is Wally' style the aim is to scan the scene and find the guy first. However the urban scenes and everyday setting of a metropolis proofs rather challenging and it requires a quick an sharp eye to pick one person out of the crowd, time is ticking.
Of course the answer is where it gets a bit messy. So take a deep breath ans check out how many you got right.
For more check out the 'spot the guy' at Seoul Station clip. First and second one here The series continues with number 9 'Fireworks' (make sure you watch this one right to the end, nothing is as it seems!).

Seattle Tilt Shift
"I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus's garden in the shade ..." Actually this great timeLapse has neither to do with the sea nor with an octopus, but the music used with it is great. This line of text and the tune might follow you through the day though, so be careful.
However, the clip gives you a peep preview of Seattle and as one of the comments on the Vimeo page in respons to the clip goes: "This has that real Seattle light to it..."
I especially like the sequence with the two boats and the pier rocking in the waves, probably only visible in the timeLapse replay.

TimeLapse Story - Little Dramas
dolphiners is a Korean movie and animation company who produces brilliant stuff. One of the lates works is the series Small Earth, a loose sequence of everyday stories focusing on the little pleasures in urban live. It does however also include the drama and twist of a real thriller, amazing.
The series is produces as stop motion animations using a tilt-shift effect to guide the focus.
Have a look at the most recent one 'The Race' and watch out for the blue and the yellow racers, they will take you on a journey with a rather dramatic finish. Catch up on the previeous three and a bit prequels HERE.

Poster Time Lapse - the Story Continues
It has been a bit more than a year that the great timeLapse short story produced by Olympus for the PEN cam featured HERE. You might recall it, the life told in thousands of images taken printed and retaken as a stop motion animation, lovely.
Here comes no the second take on the same product comes as a XXXXXL version - PEN Giant.

Backwards Through the City
TimeLapse has a big fan base and even though it is an experimental media is has a wide acceptance and audience. This combination is powerful for music videos and of course it is used frequently. The french production company HK Corps has realised a brilliant clip for the Parisians' song 'Time for Nothing More'. It is a 'backwards through the city' journey with some really nice extra timeLapse features. Enjoy.

The Speed of Things - BBC Life Series
We are living in a really fast world these days. At least this is what people tell you. I am not sure, haven’t experienced anything other than this before you might think to yourself. The routine is in place and you follow it, however it might speed things up a little. To know the sequence of actions and the context they take place will help to execute them quicker. But probably only if the destination is clear. Take your commute to work. It is a routine and you are really good at it. Fast here, up there with a few steps, into the bus, out and across and your there. However there is very little your interested in between. It is about going from A to B. There is not much roaming around. The routine together with the clear target speeds things up. Time runs quick, everyone around you is in the same situation, they follow their routine target and therefore move quick too. The passage of time is here measured in relation to the activity of the fellow travellers. This makes the time go really quick and everyone seems to be in such a hurry. The perception of time changes and it seems to speed up and you end up being late, because everyone else seems to be quicker.
Being trapped in such a short term time experience mode, it becomes really different to relate to longer term time phenomenon. Already the structure of the day is difficult to grasp. It will get dark at some point but will realise when we get there. Time frames beyond this are out of reach without proper assimilation. Take the tide for example. It changes twice a day and still it is almost impossible to relate to as a ‘fast’ living citizen. This phenomenon featured earlier in posts, see HERE.
Other timescales moving at a different pace are way beyond and all we see are key frames. Take the plant on your windowsill. Does it look the same everyday? I bet it does, to you. At least I only realise something happened when it flowers. I most likely wont see the tiny first bud, maybe realise when their quit big and the next time the flower has opened. But something is happening in between, the plant moves and changes, grows and moves.
TimeLapse can be a brilliant tool to visualise this kind of change. Where better to look than at the BBC. In their Live Series they produced these astonishing visualisations capturing this change at a different pace. In an only 60 second shot they compress the growth of a range of flowers in a stretch of wood over a whole season. It took them a year to to produce this short clip. THe result is astonishing and most likely the most complex scene in natural filming.
The rest of the parts are accessible here: Part two, Part three, Part four, Part five
This is documentation on how it was produced.

TimeLapse - Back and White
I haven’t consciously seen this before and it blew me away, a timeLapse in black and white. How beautiful is this! I love it and this is already reason enough to post it. However it gets even better and with the sunrise the colour fade in and the scene develops a different character.

A Day in the Life of the City
An attempt to mimic the daylight in the city. The project is realised as an A-level art project by the student jamatkins. The sound scape is also quite nice, so turn your headphones up.

Small Life Weekend Activity
For the approaching weekend something to relax, a beautiful stop motion timeLapse with some tilt shift. The title suggest Switzerland, but actually it is Germany. The area is I think a national park that bares similarities with the Swiss mountain landscape.
It might inspire you for some special activity for the upcoming weekend. We are already mid autumn, the threes turn bright orange, red and yellow and start sailing off the branches and twigs. But those are also the days of these beautiful walks in the park or the countryside, with the low sun throwing an intense light out into the landscape.
Also have a look at Christoph Schaarschmidt other clips and movies, he does great stuff.

Tilt Shift Tracking
A brilliant Timelaps, stop motion, tilt shift, tracking movie. Actually it is an advertisement clip for a internet platform maptype.com. Unfortunately it is all in russian language so I am not on top of the information, I simply like it. It looks like some event site, with symbols for party locations, museums, theater venues, universities, shopping, eating and cinema locations. I assume the tracking in the clip refers to people going to these locations.
