ZURICH CITY TWILIGHT is my second time-lapse film project, which I was able to create in July-October 2017 and release in March 2018.
In recent years, countless spectacular videos have been published showing the transition from day to night in large cities. I wanted to make a film like this of Zurich. The smooth transition from daylight to night is one of the most demanding things in time-lapse photography. That's why it took me a lot of research and testing until the transitions looked like I wanted them to be.
To capture the more than 10'000 photos for the different sequences, I was on the road with two cameras this time. Of course, this caused a bit of a sensation among people passing by and I was able to have many interesting conversations.
Once again, I was able to visit places at the right time, so that the city still fascinated me even after more than 10 years. For example, I was surprised by a rain shower at Central when the sun broke through the clouds for just a few seconds. I also remember one of the most breathtaking sunsets at the Dolder Grand.
