This Is The Best Timelapse You Will Ever See… This Week

I know that we have shown a lot of timelapses lately but our readers really love them and each month someone seems to raise the bar on quality or creativity. It is now Dominic Boudreault’s time in the spotlight with his film “The City Limits”. This film has the most amazing cityscapes I have seen to date. Make sure you watch this thing in HD full screen.

This is a pretty amazing time lapse for sure. It was so elegantly exposed and in truly great definition with superb color balance at first glance.

Absolutely, mind blowingly, beautiful.
Those cityscapes had liquid gold flowing through them! Fabulous.

Very cool. I can’t help but think of all the work to create all of those scenes. A BTS story on this would be very interesting.

and it is the last track in the movie Inception. The “blackout” to the beat of the soundtrack at the end of this video is an exact imitation of the movie Inception =]
what an amazing timelapse

Very nice stuff indeed. How does one go about licensing a big-time move soundtrack song like that for this kind of use?

Sorry everyone, I have a question, how do you do overnight time lapses that last longer than a certain amount of time?

thanks Even

is it possible to find out some stats on this like how many images shot, how long the project took
http://www.facebook.com/schoquette Stefan Choquette
Using a gradiated filter you can expose the sky and the lights below properly by having the ND portion at the bottom. Then you need to use a wide angle lens in order to take a longer exposure in order to get the sky and not get star streaks. at 35mm you can do about 20-30 seconds. At 15mm you can go upwards of a minute. Each frame of this lasted for several seconds.
At least this is what I would do to attempt such a project like this.

Love the vantage points for the city scapes. Brilliant !!

Was this HD video or a series of timed exposures? Anyone know the tools of his trade for this production?

In Montreal, there’s a mountain called Mount Royal from where you can view the whole city. I don’t know about the other cities.

I thought the end brought me back to Koyaanisqatsi. awesome work.

I love how it ended with God’s creations. City light still can’t touch the stars….
MAN = 0
GOD = won

True. It was interesting to enjoy 2.5 minutes of the beauty that man has created on this planet and close with the beauty of God’s creations. Thanks.

Was that a custom soundtrack?
Mario Scott
no it is from the Inception Soundtrack by Hans Zimmer, the song is called Time.
Brett Bergener
WOW! Stunning.

Do you think it’s hdr? I’d think that but short cars trails and people make me think it’s not hdr.
