Stop Motion Sunsets

by Josue Salazar

Continuing with my experiments in stop motion photography comes my latest project.

The scene is what’s leftover from a bonfire the night before (in what probably will be the latest bonfire of the season), chairs turned upside down over night by the wind make for a memorable view.

5 hours of shooting frames every 15 seconds with my Canon Rebel XT on a tripod, with the shutter handled by Dragon Stop Motion on my mac.

Post processing included bumping the vibrance and highlights all the way up in Aperture for every shot and doing an Image Sequence in Quicktime Pro set to 6 frames per second.

The song is The Field’s Everybody’s got to learn sometime.

The video is embedded below but I highly recommend you click through to Vimeo and see it in HD:

PS: There’s another timelapse coming later on today.
