Hello, I live in Brazil and would like the ability to use their images in the recording of a video clip. Confirming the possibility will be given due credit to its creators. This work is not for profit and is part of a publicity campaign for a disk that will be freely distributed here in Salvador Bahia Brazil. I await your contact. Thank you!

Andy, I love this. I read you description, but have a couple other questions: did you shoot this through a car windshield? Was the camera mounted or were you hand-holding it?

[comedyhunter]

@staylorrx Hi,

Yes it was shot through the car windshield.

Yes the camera was dash mounted. The photos would be very blurred if hand-held as exposure was 1 second so the light trails would not be straight, they would have wobbles!

[binomeach]

it's fucking awesome !

[TheGreenPlague]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bvixer]

Nice work. 

[rachbrett]

I likey

[icannotfly]

this should only be watched sober, might want to put a warning up...

[SkateHunterGl2]

Could you do The light trails with a video camera ?

[comedyhunter]

@SkateHunterGl2 NO, video is 25-30 frames per second fixed exposure time.

[SkateHunterGl2]

how did you do this ?

[comedyhunter]

@SkateHunterGl2 As per my very detailed description.

[bigyankee86]

[comedyhunter]

@bigyankee86 Cheers.

Interesting technique. When I first saw it, I thought you'd used a video camera in time lapse using a long shutter. Nice idea and great execution.

[comedyhunter]

@BoulderOSteens thanks, yes just a very cheap point and shoot camera.

[rendad2]

Great light fireworks ,o)

[arcticablue]

I have found the perfect song for this beautiful footage you've created. Go to AZ-Rotator's website and listen to Silka. Turn the volume of your vid down and listen to that song. I like the mood there! Most importantly, you've created a beautiful piece here! I really like it! Keep up the good work!  It's fantastic!

[comedyhunter]

@arcticablue Yes I see what you mean, Silka does fit well with my footage.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed my video, check out my other timelapse videos.

Great job on making everything looks so surreal and amazing, ComedyHunter!

[comedyhunter]

@Itzpower Thanks, Yes long exposure has completely changed what you see here.

[notts57]

looks like an advert for Wipeout or something lol

[cappilio]

lol this is awsome to whatch when stoned! i suggest everyone trys it lol Nice one!

[Mcpottsmc]

how did u make the lights look long like that

[comedyhunter]

As per my description.

Long exposure time at night combined with movement means that points of light get turned into lines of colour.

[richardmackney]

This is simply amazing, nice work Andy.

[comedyhunter]

Cheers, all done with a modified £34 camera

[opus2006]

Great video, with a kicking soundtrack. Many thanks.

[comedyhunter]

Cheers.

[DCity17]

this is awesome !! were u overlappin two / three videos over each other or somthing?

[comedyhunter]

yes, 3-4 tracks of the same clip in Sony Vegas pro 9 then stagger the start point then set Compositing modes for each track.

[NYCity99]

Shades of the 60's, Man.

Peace.

[cfw1950]

Really good Andy ~ I'm even going to give it a plug on my blog ...

[comedyhunter]

Thanks. I've yet to try it on a large screen to see whats its like.

[hopwas2007]

I felt like I was on drug trip! I recognise places like old greyhound staidum off friargate, Westfields and (I think) A52 road. Awesome video!

[comedyhunter]

Cheers, I've just added the driving route.
