Mike Olbinski releases stunning sunset time-lapse featuring unusual cloud formations

07 Jun

‘Tis the season for dramatic weather in the middle parts of the US, and as such, it’s also the season for incredible time-lapse videos. If you thought we reached peak weather time-lapse just last week when we posted Chad Cowan’s excellent Fractal, well, see what you think after watching Mike Oblinski’s latest.

He captured unusual cloud formations called Undulatus Asperatus rolling across the plains of North Dakota at sunset. As always, we recommend going full screen and cranking the resolution up.

Fractal: A supercell thunderstorm time-lapse years in the making

02 Jun

Chad Cowan is passionate about teaching people the ins-and-outs of storms and extreme weather, as well as how to safely document them. And judging by both his impressive body of work as well as his latest release, Fractal, he certainly seems to know what he’s doing.

So crank the volume and enjoy some samplings from the last six years of Cowan’s storm-chasing across America’s Great Plains.

A Taste of New York is a stunning Big Apple time-lapse

19 May

A Taste of New York is the third installment of the popular “A Taste of…” series of time-lapses by Film Spektakel. To produce this breathtaking video the team around Peter Jablonowski, Thomas Pöcksteiner, and Lorenz Pritz spent 10 days in New York in 2016, shooting 65,000 photos and accumulating 2.6TB of image data on their hard drives.

‘In September 2016 we visited this awesome city to try out some new time-lapse stuff.
It took us 10 days, a lot of burgers and one helicopter ride to produce this video. 10 days is very little time to discover this city of endless opportunities, so we hardly slept anything and shot day and night for this time lapse film. The city that never sleeps indeed!’

The team used a variety of equipment including a Sony a7R II, Sony a6300 and two Canon 6Ds. The final three minute long video took 36 hours to render on a high-end Apple iMac. The stunning imagery is perfectly complemented by Alex Clement’s sound design.

Spring on Speed: Time-Lapse Video Captures 3 Years of Blooming Flowers

13 May

[ By SA Rogers in Art & Photography & Video. ]

A single sweeping shot seems to capture an entire spring season of blooming flowers in this artfully directed time-lapse video, which took three years to record and complete. Filmmaker Jamie Scott captured almost all of the footage on a soundstage in the closet of his New York home, often against a black backdrop, placing the flowers in stark relief as they unfurl.

The sped-up result almost makes them look like sea creatures waving around under the sea, tentatively opening and then closing again as the camera passes over them. Scott started out filming the flowers from the front, but realized the effect was more dramatic if he shot them from above instead, shifting focus as he went.

In a behind-the-scenes interview with F-stoppers, Scott explains that he made the film in contrast to his previous time-lapse work entitled Fall. The difference between the two films isn’t just the season, but also the close-up shots, shallow depth of field, classical score and placing the camera on a slider.

This flower bloom time-lapse took three years and 8TB of raw footage to create

09 May

You can pick your favorite symbol of springtime from any number of familiar images. In Seattle, the local favorite is a rain-soaked figure clutching a latte with a cold, dead look in their eyes. But it’s hard to beat the natural beauty and optimism of a blooming flower. That’s the imagery that dominates filmmaker Jamie Scott’s recent time-lapse titled ‘Spring,’ a follow-up to his popular video ‘Fall’ of a couple of years ago.

He gives FStoppers a fascinating look at what it takes to create a time-lapse of this scope. Not surprisingly, a lot of patience and hard drive space were involved. Watch the video, check out the behind-the-scenes and let us know what you think in the comments.

Celebrate International Dark Sky Week with a night sky time-lapse

29 Apr

A few months ago we featured the work of astrophotographer Matt Dieterich, whose iconic photo of star trails over Mt. Rainier was selected for a special series of U.S. postage stamps commemorating the 100th anniversary of the U.S. National Park Service. If you haven’t seen those photos, you should definitely check them out.

In honor of International Dark Sky Week, Dieterich has just released a time-lapse video called Pacific Northwest Nights, using photos shot while working at Mt. Rainier National Park. Of course, we love it because it highlights places in our own backyard, but even if you’ve never been to our part of the world it’s a beautiful video, and a reminder of why dark skies matter.

If you pay close attention at 0:50 and 2:45 you can even see the glow of headlamps as climbers ascend Mt. Rainier. You can find more of Dieterich’s work at his website and on Instagram.

Harbortronics’ DigiSnap Pro is designed for long-term time-lapse photography

28 Apr

Harbortronics has announced DigiSnap Pro, its new low-power complete system controller for long-term time-lapse photography. The controller supports both networked and autonomous operation and can be used with the company’s Cyclapse Pro, a time-lapse photography system that includes a camera housing and solar panel for use in locations where AC power is unavailable. 

According to Harbortronics, the DigiSnap Pro controller can be used with ‘practically any modern high quality digital camera,’ which is said to include medium format models, mirrorless, and full-frame SLRs. When used with the Cyclapse Classic systems, the company says DigiSnap Pro replaces both the Cyclapse Power Module and the DigiSnap 2700, and that all the cables support the DigiSnap Pro. The new controller can be remotely configured using the company’s Android app and Bluetooth LE, and a network remote configuration option is being developed. 

DigiSnap Pro itself offers all the functions one would typically need for long-term time-lapse photography, according to the company, including power management, automated image transfer and local data storage, and monitoring the system for issues. Status emails are sent when a problem is detected, including issues with the housing door, camera failure, low battery, temperature issues, and more.
