The biggest problem about shooting time lapses is that whenever you think you’ve had enough frames you are about 50% correct. I wish I had stayed and snapped for a bit longer but as on every Friday evening London Bridge fills up with lunatics, drunks and dodgy types who discuss robbing you in their foreign language expecting that you don’t understand them.

For this video I used still image sequences shot on Canon 5D Mark II.
I used Canon 75-300 f/4.0-5.6 lens which I certainly don’t recommend but I my case it did the job. My friend Pawel lent me his fancy programmable remote to execute continuous shutter without vibrations but since then I acquired a simple shutter release remote and I love it. I have a 16 GB CompactFlash card. It’s a SanDisk Extreme III 30MB/s – slower cards might lag.

The wonderful sounds were created by Cliff Martinez.

This is the result.

And knowing his sick taste in music it’s going to be heavy.

We didn’t have much time to shoot and security super cleaner guys weren’t very happy with what we were doing. So we only managed to pull off some 10 minutes of footage.

Filmed on Canon 5D Mark2 with 50mm f1.4 lens. Edited on Apple Final Cut Studio.

Music: Band of Horses

Thanks Ben!
