Five Days in San Francisco


Timelapse and hyperlapse of the city of San Francisco
San Francisco is a beautiful town, of that there is no doubt.  Yet I don’t think I have ever seen it so gorgeous, so luminescent (the only word I can use to describe the light in much of this footage) as during Five Days in San Francisco.  A team of three, led by Cameron Michael were given five days by Dynamic Perception (providers of low-cost and easy-to-use photographic motion-control systems) to capture as much of the Bay City as they could.  The results are simply stunning.

Combining both traditional time-lapse with very contemporary hyperlapse techniques, Cameron and his team have done the city proud.  Stunning morning and day time shots combine with those captured in the evening, when SF elegantly, seductively slips in to something more comfortable (as it were).  If San Francisco’s tourist agencies want to get people flocking to the city, then my advice would be to use this footage!
