It's not like they're burning a flag or anything.
The best post on tilt shift photography yet. I found this highly engrossing.
Look! Matchbox and Tonka Trucks. Srsly, that's what it looks like. Love it. This is awesome!
Being culturally uninformed, music-wise, can someone tell me the name of the group/artist on the soundtrack? thx!
@3 It's listed at the end of the video... Robot High School or something.
wuh?
Amazing, that is some great work.
@#4. Thank you! I was watching it in episodes here at work, and in my haste to post how cool it was, clicked forward before it ended. D'oh!
The song has been featured on Boing Boing before in fact: http://www.boingboing.net/2008/01/21/robot-high-school.html
...Man, I get more amd more interested in doing my own tilt-shift stills. Wonder if there's a MAKE version of a cheap lens for a Canon Digital Rebel as there is for a macrolens using a Pringle's can as an extender?
So wait a minute, are these actually miniatures or is this just the effect of the tilt-shift still shots of an actual event strung together? Some of the people shots looked amazingly detailed if this was miniatures.
Brilliant!
Real event, through the magical eye of tilt/shift photography. Best one I've seen yet.
I think the time-lapse really adds to the miniature/toy feel.
I am sick of the tilt-shift craze. While this (TS and the stop motion/ffw'd) video is well done, the meme is dead to me.
the meme is dead to me.
Thank you so much for confiding your boredom to us. You have enriched our lives.
the part where all the little cars dance around at about the 1:45 mark was, truthfully, all i needed.
wholphin had some pretty amazing tilt-shift video shot from helicopters a couple issues back, my favorite being the single truck raising dust in the nevada desert. it was by olivo barieri, i think.
it seems to me this whole thing is more effective when the point of view is inhuman, which usually means really high up. otherwise it's just sort of...meh.
i went away on a government vacation
it was the best time that I ever had
shipped me back home from a secret location
my legs came back later in a plastic bag
metal papers
metal pens
metal hearts
metal hands
memorised the rules and learned to behave
but when i got to school i forgot forgot
so they put me in a special classroom
where everybody is a robot robot
Everything i said about my bad education
a million broken records have already said
learning how to live like I'm under sedation
learning how to live like I'm already dead
metal papers
metal pens
metal hearts
metal hands
memorised the rules and learned to behave
but when i got to school i forgot forgot
so they put me in a special classroom

Why are the killer parts only shown in time-lapse? There are sections at (near-) realtime, but no jumps or anything. Perhaps they've already sold them on the commercial market.
I'd still like to see some 3D tilt-shift footage, using 2 cameras set a few yards apart.
Oh well, this is how uncool I am: this was the first tilt-shift video I'd ever seen and I was entranced.
I'm tilt-shift right now. I can't tell whether I'm full size or just a miniature of myself. Also, I need to be three inches from my monitor to read it.
Om: lensbaby does a fairly cheap tilt-shift lens:

(For non-photographers out there: yes, $270 is cheap for a lens)

...Especially for a third-party lens for a Canon Rebel model. Thanks for the link!
Why are they driving on the flag?
Real miniatures can be filmed without so much blur. I refer you to just about EVERY STOP MOTION MOVIE EVER MADE.
#16- That Wholphin issue (#4) was the first time I had ever seen tilt/shift & it blew my mind.
It can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-QI9znZ-yQ
Great subject for a stop-motion tilt-shift. It puts into perspective the size of the mind it takes to enjoy such an event.
I hope some band approaches him about using this footage for a clip, as opposed to some production company just ripping it off.
Yes definitely Lensbaby! Their new composer is perfect for staying in one place like this! I preordered one and have had if for a little while now... amazing!
I was at this event in November, it was at the boondall entertanment centre in Brisbane Aust
