Description:
xRez Studio presents current innovations in DIY motion-control systems for time-lapse photography. Traditional time-lapse is static and locked off, but new techniques using astronomical mounts, Arduino controllers, and DSLR video gear allow new abilities to pan, tilt, and dolly the camera, resulting in rich cinematic moves. Further integration with 3D animation software and digital terrain modeling allow large-scale fly-throughs on large panoramic landscapes. This project also shows recent work at xRez Studio, including new gigapixel robotic heads, full-dome production, and spherical-animation creation.
