Could This Be The Longest Slider Video Ever?

We've featured Patryk Kizny a few times here on Fstoppers and his content is always mind blowing. Recently he decided to test a new portable and modular slide rail for the DitoGear PortaSlider. This time lapse video uses 14 one-meter long track units connected to make one single long track. Everything was shot on a few Canon DSLR Cameras and mainly wide angle Samyang 14mm and 8mm lenses. The location, Ogrodzieniec Castle, is one of the largest ruined castles in Poland and Eastern Europe and a pretty remarkable place to film.

The scale here is wild.. that's one hell of a track. On a couple of the shots it didn't make a ton of sense to me to do it as time lapse at first..when you're moving through the interior of a stone castle where nothing is changing over time. But then when a window passes into frame and the stars and clouds are rushing by outside it's a really cool look.
