thanks guys!
Daniel Dragon Films 8 months ago

Man, did you bramp NYC or what? You must have the happiest Little Brampers in the world.. you have a family of 3, and they get to work like draft horses.

I'm loving that move out into the river at night.. like an impressionist painting in motion.

I have no idea how you manage to carry a 10ft, 50lb rail of aluminum all around NYC.

Great work as usual!

Eric Hines 8 months ago

Gorgeous film, mindrelic. Some seriously awesome dolly moves in there, and I loved the tilt-shift sequences. I have to say, you have guts for setting up the DP off buildings!
Marcus O'Brien 8 months ago

Great job - lotta lugging, rigging off building rooftops (loco) and processing to produce that!

BOOM.

Not sure about that last shot though - felt like you had a better one to finish on?

Job well done - hotels must be stoked
Mindrelic 8 months ago

thanks for the input marcus, i agreed with you so i added one more sundown sequence to the end so that last skyline shot didn't hang for so long. cheers!
Cameron Crisp 8 months ago

Amazing work, Mindrelic! I especially loved those movements through the railings and over the side of the buildings.

Richard Gluck 8 months ago

dude, josh man. this piece is incredible. I'm not going to pick out a favorite because there are too many. the sickest New York (city) timelapse i've ever seen man.

time to venture into 3 axis!
Mindrelic 8 months ago

thanks man! I'm definitely picking up a pan head soon
Daniel Dragon Films 8 months ago

The thing about the panning/tilting head (Richard knows) is that you get mo-co without carrying 2 tripods, a rail, etc. I have started using my Orion Teletrack AZ-G almost all the time as a stand-alone deal, gives you a lot of flexibility, you can set it up about 3X as fast as the Stage Zero.

This tops all the city time lapses I have seen! Excellent! What gear did you use? Thanks.
Kyle Doyle 8 months ago

Insane! Obviously a lot of effort and time. The off the roof shots are sick. I also loved the shot selection. The mix of dark/light, wide/tight, high/low really makes it flow.
Andrew Walker 8 months ago

That was pretty amazing man. Those shots out over the sides of the buildings and through the railings where awesome. Hopefully we'll get to work together soon.

Kemalettin Sert 8 months ago

Wow! This summer I'll be making my first ever visit to NYC.
Coming from the sleepy Hawaiian island of Kauai, I have to say that the big city of New York is an intimidating prospect. Your film shows it as the living breathing entity that it is. I'm more excited to see it than ever!
Well done!
