Sydney Skyline Time Lapse

[NeverendingUniverse1]

This is a great movie, Sydney is a beautiful city for this kind of photography. Keep it up!

I'm planning on doing one of these in Melbourne.

@moe96699669: I live in Melbourne and I know that some of us dislike other cities, but this is just rude, offensive and unacceptable.

oh my jesus, breath taking !

I live in Stockholm - Sweden, but this is also SO BEAUTIFUL !

I love it !

I must say the best part was when the sun went down again and just when it got behind the building, the lighting was nice.

anyway yeah, make more time lapses ! :O

Witness a product of the Victorian education system.

haha i love time lapses and i usually cut off the sound to play Give it Away from my ipod, and to my surprise I hear Give it Away !!! Great choice :D

[lewko1]

@fabregas0415 Thanks. It was a toss-up between that song and something by Rammstein. I think it worked out better this way...

[diehlken]

howd you time lapse like that with one tape?

[lewko1]

By taking a single frame every few minutes.

In total, it would have used less than two or three minutes of tape.

Most high-end cameras (including the TRV-900 at the time) have a built-in time lapse record feature. For the ones which don't you could probably hook them to a laptop with Firewire (or USB) and use third-party software to achieve the same thing.

wats better the trv900 or trv950?

[lewko1]

No idea mate. Sorry.

[Adammythbusterspl]

Nice music and great footage! I think you should use a DSLR camera next time for better quality.

[HeliJV]

A really thoughtful and well executed piece. Well done.

Beautiful city, much love from london.

[saintfletcher]

Looks awesome. I have a similar view at Potts Point with the Opera House and Bridge. But I don't have time lapse on my camera. I watch dawn out the window and it is always amazing. 5* Blessings +++ The Saint +++

[306filmerr]

[ViperaAl95]

[ViperaAl95]

[almostfamous305]

good stuff man

nice song

[Callsy92]

I love the music, wats the song called?

[jmo453]

kool that was awesome!!!

[Stukov16]

Beautiful video!!

How did you do it, using stills (time-lapse) or did you filmed 12 dv tapes??

And another thing, I may buy one TRV900, how would you rate it?

Thanks!!

[lewko1]

It was shot using the TRV900's built-in time lapse. I then sped up the resultant footage using iMovie.

The camera was (and still is) terrific. It's a few years old now, so I reckon you could save a lot of money and I'd highly recommend it.

Well, I think it is the best two hours that you've spent yet.

I like the sun landing breifly on the mlc center, and the silouette in the early evening is ... so intensely one-dimentional-looking.

It seems that it was done in an April or an October; is that so?

What happened at 1:54 ?

Was this vt. take from that tall building near the K.X. fire station?

Cheers.

del-boy.

[lewko1]

Mate, I have NO idea what happened at 1:54. It was either a tape glitch or maybe a Firewire thing. It looks even worse on Youtube.

You've picked the location perfectly. I had access to a balcony around 15 floors up, for a few days.

[EellyMayClampet]

Dear le.,

Thank you for your response; one guesses you aren't a video-camera hobbiest but hopes you might get some time during the holiday season, to create and post a fresh video tape for we -all your fans, to see.

Cheers.

Nice

[unicornpr]

Nice one mate

[LaDeejay]

absolutely love the light reflecting off the buildings in the first 10 seconds, nice!

[lewko1]

Thanks! Although, you only watched it for 5-10 seconds. It was a royal pain in the 2-3 hours it actually took, when I was trying to watch television :-)
