august 2009

The clouds were moving really fast outside my house, so I decided try my first time lapse.

Inspired by Tom @ Timescapes I went out to my favourite filming location in the UK, Dungeness on the south coast to see what I could get.

Please read my blog for just how hard it was and how bloody scary too!

I shot this scenes in the Saxon Switzerland. This is a National Park in the east of Germany along the river Elbe. In this clip you can see the Fortress Königstein, the Bastei, the Lilienstein, Stolpen, Bad Schandau and the Brebisch Gate in the Czech Republic. I shot about 12000 pictures in five days with my Canon 400D.

It's a slow start but give it time.

It's all stop motion with time lapse vfx. Pretty much all done in camera with 30 second exposures.
