I’m always looking for new ways to create cool things with my photography. Last week I saw a couple of really sweet photographic stop motion video of NYC by Cdow and an experimental series of Japan by Dave Lee.
I thought it would be cool to try an experimental photographic stop motion video of Vancouver at dusk highlighting moving bokeh. So I took a late night drive from China town to Kitsilano and snapped a ton of photos using my Canon Xti with the LensBaby composer & heart-shaped aperture disk. I compiled 300 images at 10fps in Adobe After Effects and then edited it with FCP.
I was a bit disappointed with the compression once I’d uploaded it on Vimeo, but it still looks pretty cool.

Pretty cool Lisa!
How did you manage to capture the images while driving? mount a tripod, handheld? cable release to fire off shots?
something different and interesting
Wow, awesome effect! Great work!
That was fun!
nicely done! love the effect of the aperture disk.
Nice footage. I thought Vimeo had a volume dial, I cant find it. The highs are a tad shrill, in my opinion.
Looks pretty sweet to me. Great work!
I think it looks pretty cool, especially with the bokeh effect. Wouldn’t have guessed it was stop motion using actual photos, by the way…
Very cool. I have been playing a lot with bokeh as well lately. I think someone needs to upgrade to the 5D Mark II soon…. :)
Very cool Lisa, nice work!
That’s amazing Lisa!
Nifty, I might try one of Boston.
pretty AND cool.
