Tom Lowe's "Timescape" trailer

I have to say that Tom's latest trailer is simply amazing timelapse photography with sequences of "drivelapse" (timelapse in a car!) and the use of Kessler cranes and dollies. Mindblowing technical expertise... all in 4k and edited in CS5.5 Premiere Pro and AEFX.

Amazing!!!!

Really stunning. Not only is the 4k footage beautiful but the lighting for each clip is perfect. Even the 'Fringe' text fit like a glove. Does anyone here know how to create that text effect? Would love to find a tutorial.

Steve

Very special!

Do you know which camera it was shot on Drew?

Adam

A mix of 7D, 5D2, 1D4, Red 1, Epic M with primes on sliders, gyros and cranes. If you go to the vimeo page, there are 2.5k and 4k version which is just awesome!

Awesome ... Its amazing what you can do with the right gear and obviously time...

Spectacular; the attention to detail is amazing. Lots of work.

I wanna do that...

Yeh his stuff is amazing.

How did he nail those moving down the road time-lapse shots?

I know, the moving shots are absolutely stunning. Imagine how many hours have been spent getting it wrong and the weather changing etc etc. Truly amazing

Even on a high ISO the shutter has to be open for 10+ seconds on a full moon night, he must of had the car travelling very very slowly.

Maybe he was out the back pushing it a foot after each exposure lol

But also the speed would have had to have been pretty consistent too, so no getting tired while pushing the car

The behind the scenes photos are also on the vimeo site:

The boat lapse is even more impressive and really makes me reevaluate AEFX's stabilization plug in.

is everything timelapse, because some sequences look like they are "just" shot as a video (e.g. the dancing man)

"overcrank, undercrank wandering freee!!! It's not all time-lapse as you will see" ... sung to the wombles theme tune

Dean, you crack me up man.

Well there are too many techno geeks and knowledge posers on here so a little jovial answer here and there doesn't hurt.

Are you well ?
