i like it. really fits into a mood. the only thing i would have changed would be the smile at the end. it all seems so somber...then a smile.
but what do i know. nice idea.

Hey thanks for the comments.
I really would have liked if there were more cars passing by. Every time I look at it I'm thinking damn we don't have enough cars in Greece!!! No I'm joking we have more than enough!
It is strange though because that street is quite busy during the day and at night they all just vanish!

I like how you can really make out all these emotions she seems to be going through.. and the music really accompanies it nicely!

love it... how did you accomplish it? did you record it at a higher fps?
- phobos790
Hi Taylor. No what I did is shoot at normal 25fps(PAL) and than add more frames during post. The program calculates the movement between frames and creates new in between ones. You get a huge cache file but it can create some really nice results. For the 20 second footage I got approximately a 4.5GB cache file.

I'm a big fan of super slow footage, so this tickles me nicely.
I'd be curious to see what it would be like if the speed was more variable throughout the piece - perhaps have it run even slower during 'emotional transition states' - like when she blinks or her attention is diverted.
What's most impressive to me is that this was shot at a normal 25fps rate - I've often wondered whether it was possible to achieve this kind of thing by 'morphing' between frames - I'm guessing the blur and colour enhancement hide any arising artefacts that might otherwise crop up?
Nice job - keep on playing!

Detritus the variable speed is a nice idea! I guess I should try it out one of those days.
There really aren't any artefacts. It depends though heavily on what kind of movement you're shooting. I think that movement like smoke of a cigarette would not work at all. But I'm planning to try it out so I'll let you know how it goes!

Nice. I'm digging these little experiments of yours.
