Mini Dresden: Nice Tilt-Shift and Timelapse

Andy — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 15:15:00 +0000

The next in our ongoing series of mini-timelapse is mini Dresden. The movie was captured by MoritzHL using a mix of a Canon 400D and a 7D.

It’s really nicely done, there is something about timelapse, linked to tilt-shift and an upbeat sound track (Cinnamon Casers – The World is Yours, in this case) that makes such clips so likable.

Tiltshift, City and Robot – RenkeBot Lives

Andy — Tue, 11 May 2010 12:01:00 +0000

Tiltshift, 3D Max a city and robot, really whats not to like:

RenkeBot Lives- part2! from Matt Moses on Vimeo.
Created by Matt Moses the city backplates were shot with the Canon 7D and a Tilt Shift lens. Tilt shift lenses give it that “tiny town” look of small scale DOF. Matt built and textured the robot in 3dsmax, and rigged him using CAT – Rendered in Finalrender, composited in Combustion. All three shots took 3 days, including a day to build the robot.

Only only gripe – we wish is was a bit longer, really nicely done.

Colorama – Tilt Shift – Large and Small

Andy — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 11:17:00 +0000

At the moment our iMac round the back of the office is churning out our first ‘fake’ tiltshift test. Its been running for 3 days and has given the poor thing a notable level of screen burn, while that processes and we wait for the results, below is how it should be done:

Colorama – Makeover from Upper First on Vimeo.

The ‘giant hand’ makes for an interesting take on tilt shift movies. Developed by UpperFirst for Colorama, the idea is to create a visually absurd situation using displacement of scale between the people in frame and the giant hand. It is meant to underline the contrast of small and big, where the hand symbolizes the consumers ability to effect the environment and in the extension his or her own environment.

Miniature City featuring Vividblaze “Tight Rope (Floor Mix)”

Andy — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 10:45:00 +0000

Many of the tilt-shift/timelapse movies we have featured here on digital urban have been created using a fake title shift effect. The movie below by mockmoon uses a ARAX 2.8/35mm Tilt & Shift lens mounted on a Canon EOS 5DmarkII:

The clip has inspired us to get out the Canon G9, fire off an email to the people behind UrbanTick and sort out our own tutorial and timelapse imagery, more on that in future posts…

Tilt Shift Mini Cities – Scenes from a Rooftop

Andy — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 10:44:00 +0000

Scenes from a rooftop from Paul Johannessen on Vimeo.

Regular readers will know that we are big fans of tilt shift imagery – see our Tilt Shift thread for various movies, photography tips and tutorials. The latest addition above is by Paul Johannessen shot using a Panasonic HVX200, in 1080 using the interval recording mode. The rate of recording was 1 shot in every 4 or 8 fps with the tilt shift effect added in afterwards using a mask and blur.
