Thanks alot everyone for the kind words. It's truly a relieve to have completed this but the final product spurs me to do more.

Todd, it was a totally weird idea that popped in my brains when I was about to pack up. Tried a couple of frames, looked cool and went on to stay for an hour more. Glad it worked for you.

Cheers

Very nice. Singapore is a great place.
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Thanks Sean and Oyvinto! My next aim is a daytime one but that will require alot of PR work coz I am hoping to get permits to a number of places. :P

Compelling timelapse piece, Weehan. Also fine music (I've used this Chris Harvey piece myself last year). Kudos!
David Seetoh Lang 2 years ago

Awesome video. I like how you used apartment and office lights flickering on/off as a consistent theme to tie the beginning half together.
David Coiffier 2 years ago

Some truly magnificient shots, Weehan!

Great stuff! It's been a few years since I went to Singapore, but there is so much I didn't get to see so I would love to go again.

Hi Wee Han,i have helped u posted your video on

youtube.com/watch?v=HO-0pEeUWdY

just wanted to share your amazing work to the rest of the world.Due to copyrights,you do have the rights to ask me to remove the video =D
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Hi everyone,

Thanks alot for the kind words! It was quite an experience shooting the entire thing. Involved alot of location scouting, lonely nights and lugging around 3 setups was not easy. All in all, it was well worth the effort to document SG in a refreshing way.

I am in the midst of planning a daytime version where I will be doing Ken Burns effects as well. :)

James, thank you very much. I do appreciate the sharing. :)

Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Hi Azim,

You can go to magnatune.com and search for Chris Harvey....fabulous site.
Okkar Kyaw 2 years ago

Nice effort. Going to multiple locations to take the shots is a lot of time and energy. Aptly featured on the newspaper today. (=
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Thanks alot Okkar Kyaw. :) If I can throw environmental messages across, then it would have been well worth the effort.
Andrew Lin Yikai 2 years ago

Nice Work! how long (average) did you normally have to wait for each of your scenes? You should try fake miniature timelapse, I think they'd turn out great!
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Hi Andrew,

My average time per location is about 3 hours. If I screw things up then it will be a reshoot another day. Fake miniature is interesting but TS lenses are just too dear for my pockets now.
Beru Betto 2 years ago

This is absolutely stunning... I never knew Singapore could look this beautiful : )
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Thanks Beru Betto, SG is beautiful but I do hope for the continuous digging and building to cease or at least slow down. Modernisation is not necessarily a good thing.
Zaihan K. 2 years ago

You made me fall a little in love with my hometown that I get so frustrated with. beauty does exist everywhere, we just have to learn not to always look at the flaws.
Weehan Yeo 2 years ago

Hi Zaihan, very true. Guess everything has their flaws and as to which side we should look at, is entirely our choice. :)

superb work! I am also working on a similar city lights project with my Nikon D3 which I'll upload to Vimeo when it's finished in a few months. I am currently shooting around Singapore.
Elizabeth Liu Xiujun 2 years ago

I see Tiong Bahru Plaza!

I'm guessing you used an intervalometer for this. How often did you set it to take a shot?
Irina Gingu 1 year ago

Superb. I love how the lights in the buildings look like they are playing.
