Timelapse Overdose

My feelings about timelapse videos wax and wane according to my mood. Sometimes I dislike them, other times I think they are amazing. Certainly a considerable amount of skill and patience is required to capture them.

Herewith a sampling of recent favourites, for when I’m positively inclined...

Singaporean architecture looks otherworldly in this short film by Keith Loutit (see below). I am not usually a huge fan of videos featuring time-lapse, or tilt-shift, but the combination of these two techniques, along with the changing depth of field and focus makes for a visually fascinating three minutes.

Wow.

By the way, if you’re curious about the structures in the preview image -- those are the Supertrees at Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay. They are huge (up to 50m tall) solar trees / hanging gardens.
