Tuesday night is Bike Night on Poole Quay.

This “video” wasn’t shot on a video camera but two Canon DSLR stills cameras!

After four afternoons and evenings I ended up with several thousand stills, it would have been done over several more days but the English summer put pay to that idea. There was little point on going out on an overcast day as apart from poor light, very few motorcyclists turned up.

All the motion, fast, slow, pans or over wise were created in post using after effects. By using very wide angles lens and high resolution meant that smooth pans and zooms could be created.

Some effects such as the motion blur effects were created “in camera” by using a slow shutter speed and ND filters.

    Great stuff, I have been experimenting with my EOS 450D. Why not compile the movie in HD there is enough pixels from each photo to still pan and zoom!

    Hi Andy, thanks for the comment, a lot of the shots were 1 frame a second and on small jpg setting. I would of needed to use large jpg [or raw] for panning and zooming in HD but then I couldn't of shot 1 frame a second for very lohg!

    neat.. Would like to see it in high def, naturally...

    And perhaps a "Tilt shift lens" effect for yet another version of the wide shots...
  • Mark Rigler plus 2 years ago
    Hi Bill, I'm hoping to return to the motorbike night, do a few interviews and make a longer version in hi def, but eberytime I plan it rains or it's too windy.

    a "Tilt shift lens" effect is a good idea.
