    Who is playing the music? Obviously Coldplay, but who is performing it?

    I like the window timelapse and the flower filled meadow best.

    I especially liked the SF clips and the Southwest scenes. Was the clip around 4:40 in Italy? This is mostly HDR?

    Really cool. I've always wondered about timelapses where the camera moves... do you use tripods and dollys with motors?? Cool remix of coldplay too. I've done a similar timelapse to your airplane one. The person sitting next to me on the flight thought I was weird and seemed perturbed I was blocking the window! haha

    Some very nice shots here, lots of great effort you've done! I particularly was impressed by the airplane shot. An absolutely unique perspective, might have to experiment with that next flight, that way I won't be so bored! Do you use a commercial device for the servo panning shots, or something more diy?
  • Chad Richard plus 2 years ago
    THNX- for panning I uses a Mumford step motor on some shots but since my resolution is so high and I author for 1920x1080 I have plenty of left over area for software based panning and zooming if I want. I have a brief tuorial of how I do it on my blog here:

    Mr. Richards,

    Oregon Public Broadcasting sent me here with their "Click of Zen". I must say it was worth it!
