Never fails to work for me. Everytime!

Love the time lapse photography! Keith, was this with a pan and tilt lens? And do you use a digital camera? Great work!

Amazing video! Love the hula-hoop girl and the Icebergs pool.

These tiltshift videos are like a drug for me!

i love how your tilt shift vids keep getting better and better, your skills have improved drastically from your first vid, there's so much more life, character and plot in these new ones. what sort of equipment do you use, i would be really curious to know

Amazing stuff. Loved it. And a great song.

As usual, another great video! Thank you, Keith!

This is awesome, good job Keith! Which tilt-shift lens did you use?

Awesome!

Thank you Keith. Keep it up!

Always cool.

Ooh! I really love this one! I especially like the subtle humor brought into it. like when the girl dancing with the hoops suddenly loses her hat... Looking forward to your next video's.

Another great video. Simply brilliant, Keith.

Wow, I just love these shots!
What camera do you use?

excellent work!

Your work is mesmerising. I can't stop watching. All praise for your skill, discrimination and general extreme talent. (:-D

How's your shutter holding up? Have you had to buy a new camera yet because of that overuse? Interesting to apply this technique to sections of famous old movies..(probably too much blur though)... I guess low light subject matter no good for this effect (nightclubs etc)? A big surgical operation or ER room would be amazing...(and plenty of light there). I also feel like this effect would be really interesting with emotional subject matter - scenes of intimacy / romance - could be a good excuse for a scripted/choreographed scenario / dance/sex . . . help to build story more of course - - have you been commissioned for any music videos? (sure you have)...ALso - I guess this must be your next move but: motion control? The gear is kind if expensive but totally worth it - sure it would get away from the 'miniature set' effect a little by opening out a wider view - BUT I think the dof & speed does enough to confuse the perception that there is room for something more, something that almost brings us further toward reality (thereby intensifying the confusion somehow - iykwim???) Anyway - keep up the great work - you clearly have many fans! Cheers JT

great movie !

By far the Coolest thing I've seen in a very long time. Thanks Kieth for the hard work and creativity. It takes all kinds of geniuses. You Da Man!

why does this look like stop motion? like everything's actually in miniature?!? is it the shallow depth of field?! Bizarre...

Nice movie! Just wondering how you put those shots together as a movie. I have done some real simple ones for the family but would like to get a lot more control. Are you using Final Cut to put them all together?
Thanks,
Al

I loved it.

I'm not impressed, it doesn't even look real.

beautifull!!

very creative! I liked the 'stop-motion' style you gave to it.
I've done this kind of 'miniature' effect to my pictures in photoshop, but never thought to apply it to videos

really amazing job .... really speaks to something. well shot and I think the shift-focus really added to the drama of the events of the whole video.

keith - you're a visual genius. absolutely wonderful work.

Fantastic atmosphere, great work.

uauf!!! very Nice!!!

Really strong Keith ! Impressive.
Original I can say. Which sort of lens your using here ?

this is so nice. it's where i want to be right now.

i took the initiative and post it in my blog [hebrew]
cafe.themarker.com/view.php?t=819375

loved the monster truck vid also :)

Bear with me on this.I like this video and from the comments I gather it it still photos pieced together like in stop motion.Why does parts of the same image look like it's in minature.

fantastic Keith, I love the stretch leg girl and hula hoop girl. Great effect. As always I spread the love through my blog, gets good feedback too.

and Thomas and Spencer the reason for this is because it is tilt shift photography read more here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt-shift_photography

Wow Keith!

These are amazing! Don't tell us exactly how you made these or exactly what you made them with. It'll rob us of the journey to awesome - - clearly your train arrived there sometime ago.

Keep up the great work!

Keith, I've just watched all 6 of your videos and let me tell you, they're so awesome!

I'm sure you've heard a million praises, but you deserve them, great work.

Can't wait for more--I hope there will be more!

that's really excellent; I like the HO-scale effect of the shallow depth of field.

Hey Keith, really great work - these are so fun to watch. I am wondering if the lenses you use are a trade secret? You are very gracious yet vague about lens-specific questions :-) I figured I'd just flat-out ask you, what are some of the lenses you use or shall they never be revealed..?! Thanks for the great videos either way.

Hey Keith,

Great work. I keep telling my Photography friend that he should be purchasing one of these lenses... Well done!! I would love to see my Christmas lights with one of those lenses!!! Too Cool man Too Cool!!

-Evan

Wasn't this a bit longer then 1:03 last time I saw this? Were there some copyright issues or something? :(

can anyone tell me which lens was used? tilt shift i s'pose, but which one? thanks...

That was amazing! Nice work Keith.

Incredible amount of effort, but beautiful.
Will be used by creative UK geographers in the classroom I hope...

awsome!!!!

hehehe, these are fgunny. cant even start thinking how long it took you to make it

astonishing!

absolutely fantastic, great work, hope it helps with the campaign

great work!

I'm in love with your tiltshift videos.

Realy nice vidéo. With what camera this scenes have been shoot?

Regards

Just Love your work

Really great use of the tilt shift technique

As to my figure in the scale 1/87 revived. Wonderful work.

Reminds me of my Playmobil era. Nice sequence. In the end, patience pays off!

Great video and a very skilled director. It just made made day.

Thanks a lot Keith

Great Video. It must have taken a long time to accomplish this.

Beautiful work. love the effects.

wow the motion of the water is so cool. great work!!!

Stunning work !
how many frames per second or minute do you shot with your camera ?

Fascinating. I was intrigued by the boxers and the hula-hooper. The whole thing makes me feel like humans are so teeny in the scope of things. We look like little ant-people. Hooping, boxing ant people. : ) Fabulous work.

I absolutely love this....

This is awesome!!!!!

Great stuff... but I'm skeptical about the t/s lens claim. I think it's being done in post. I tested one of my straight shots and got the same effect. Crank up the contrast to make the items look painted... Will post it sometime soon.

Here's my first test to emulate the tilt-shift in post

C'est réellement fantastique Bravissimo Great and so amazing ;-)

Lovely piece of work. Thanks

These are gorgeous.

i really wish you'd enable downloading of the original file... I'd slap this as a sort of a screensaver for my tv whenever i am not watching anything in particular

(forgot to mention how AWESOME it really is)

Very well done!!

Thank you for your efforts.....

Wow, this is very brilliant. I lived just off Bondi and worked at a bar on the Mardi Gras route so this was quite amazing to see, but also made me sad! I love that city Sydney..

These videos never cease to amaze me. I really want to learn how to do this. Is there any way you could maybe e-mail this to me?

Such a fine example of creativity Keith. This is just awesome. Serious technical skills but your art is bringing everything together. Really like what you're doing mate. What software are you using to stitch the stills together?

I love how you've created your own look in everything you do. So cool.

Like so much this kind of videos, this tecnique tilt shift...

this's a great video.

What camcorder did you use? And where is this beach?

as many of others who have said, i absolutely love your videos, and i adore this one in particular... i could watch these all day!

Awesome work! I dare myself to achieve this level of brilliance!

this is like watching the sims
sick time lapse/tilt-shift

awesome.... really brilliant...loved every bit of it

how do u get that cartoonish look to the color?

Very nice .
Keep going man .
Love to watch your VDO .
