Trees of Life - a Blue Chip Production

Shooting natural history documentaries is what filmmaking is all about!! At least to us ;-)
Being commissioned to work on assignments like “Cats of the Camelthorn” (working title), a new Trilogy about three iconic African trees, is something we’ve been praying for and we’d love to share this incredible experience with you all!

Gear review focusing on timelapse photography

Canon 6D vs Nikon D610

I recently set out to do an in-depth review testing the Nikon D610 and the Canon 6D, specifically focusing on the functionality and workflow for timelapse photographers. It was a tough prediction to make as it was clear even before the testing started that Nikon outshines Canon on some levels where Canon out-performs Nikon again on other levels.

Without any further ado, let's get to it!

Longterm timelapse project - Part II

Earlier this year we blogged about an exciting longterm timelapse project happening In Sandton, Johannesburg. Timelapse is such a great way to show how these incredible projects are taking place and exactly what it takes to develop such astounding architecture.

South Africa, JHB - Sandton’s iconic landmark starting off in timelapse!

Longterm timelapse project - Part I

Construction is happening all around us and it's happening so fast, we hardly notice it. Few people truly know what it takes to construct these buildings. Unless you can view it in a timelapse of course! This way everyone can appreciate the efforts going into such large projects especially if it takes 4 years to complete ;-)

Construction timelapse in a warehouse!

A different kind of construction

In early November 2013 we set out on a mission to put up two static timelapse cameras in a warehouse to shoot a timelapse of racks & shelving being installed. Little did we know how amazing this shoot will turn out!

The PRO Dolly out in the field

Since this is the very first post for 2014 we would like to wish you all a prosperous New Year and we hope that 2014 will bring you lots of happiness :-)

With that we would like to tell you a bit more of this awesome PRO Dolly which we use when rigging on commercials and other productions - it's way more than just a motorised timelapse dolly.
It's a REALTIME MOTION CONTROLLED video dolly!!

Also, you might have heard about the SCYO….. Well, we would like to confirm that the SCYO is indeed a NEW dolly!
