Track: "The Shape of Things to Come"
Video is in 1080p, so watch it full screen if you can.

This is brilliant stuff, loving it.

I bet few people would have guessed what that shot down on Yosemite Valley was if the next shot had not revealed it. The shot above Getty was awesome, with all those cross-veins of traffic. Also, several of the very wide shots of LA worked brilliantly.
Bravo.
Very good job dude !
The shot at 2:26 above LA was amazing. It was like the city was pulsing.
Great job!
wonderful work!
The most spectacular video i've ever seen!
This is why i joined Vimeo :D Thumbs up y'all!
Great Work
Did you use grad nd's for the city shots ? The sky is very clear in some of them.
for instance in your stars shots... in my experience I found it tough to focus on the sky as the stars are usually dim and I usually have to "eyeball it"
how do you attain sharpness when you point at the sky for example. Do you take a couple of exposures first, kind of trial and error type. Or is there a faster way I'm missing out on?
In all sincerity. I felt like I was looking at the civilized Earth for the first time.
Bravo.

Good luck!

Then there's the Kessler, best one of the bunch.
Oh the night city shots reminded me of Baraka. Amazing to see that digital technology has come this far.
Makes me warm inside.
- has been well defined as "the measured language of emotion."
I think it applies perfectly.
First, fantastic time lapse, one of this bests! I have few questions:
- you shot it on Av/M? all settings "static"? because on Av it flickr (blink), when I use deflickr in VirtualDub it still little flickr, so I think M and all static is needed... I use fisheye 8mm samyang, so I have static f/
BTW: in canon when you have electronic f/, you can click GO look button, and then throw the lens :)
- #2 question, again about that #1 but when is sunset, you need have Av or change settings, but your video dont blink, why :D
- #3 question, what color balance you use in city? because it is nice orange, my is always blue or yellow, when I try use some whitebalances buildin 50D
I have Canon EOS 50D, Samyang 8mm F/3.5 Aspherical IF MC Fish-eye, Canon EF 28mm F/2.8
Sorry for my english...
The reason why my shots don't flicker is because I don't change the iris when the camera is shooting. The other thing that helps is using manual iris lenses like the Zeiss ZFs. They will never flicker. But the Canon 24mm 1.4 mk2 lens I use will if it gets closed down past f5.6.
The color temperature changes to what I need it to be. I try and keep it the way I shot it out in the field but sometimes like looks better cooler or warmer. Try using a program that allows you to pick your color profile when you are processing the shots like After Effects or Lightroom, which takes some extra steps unlike AE.
so you dont change any settings, all static, but I dont change too and it blink.. :(
"I use will if it gets closed down past f5.6."
so f/4 etc or f/8 etc?:P
RAW format in 50D take 20MB and I have card only 8gb :
The idea with most lenses is that they have a more consistent iris at the larger apertures. Meaning f5.6 and greater. Also when I talk about greater apertures or iris values I'm talking about the iris being larger which allows in more light. So a f1.4 is larger than f5.6. The higher the number the more closed the iris is.
I would suggest you getting some bigger cards. I'm shooting on some 32GB CF cards that aren't very fast but they do the job I need them to do.
btw: I am waiting for your new movie :P
I should have the next timelapse up in a month or so. Plus I'm working on getting a 85-90 minute feature put together. But that's going to take some time to put together.
