Photo 22. Foto TV Demofilme. Stop motion advertising with a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. Posted on 22. Jun, 2011 by planetMitch in 5D2 , Video While HDSLRs can be good for video, making a video with stop motion is also cool – and here’s a sample set sent in by Eric where they used a Canon EOS 5D Mark II ( reviews ) to made advertisements for some art schools. From Eriq: My name is Eriq, I’m a director and filmmaker and part of a production shop in San Francisco, www.OpenContent.tv . I just finished a series of stop motion commercials we did for a chain of art schools in North America, the Art Institutes and I wanted to share them with you.

We shot with the 5D MII with the 24mm 1.4 lens for all the animation on the street. News. NoFilmSchool. Daniel Dragon shares his lessons in timelapse with "Night Motion Timelapse: Outer Banks" Timelapses have become more and more sophisticated – and Daniel Lowe’s “Night Motion Timelapse: Outer Banks” is no exception.

Daniel spent time creating a beautiful movie and has graciously also put together this post for planet5D with his lessons learned in creating this masterpiece. This time, we decided to give you the discussion of the movie before showing it to you – so first up is Daniel’s BTS and then the movie is below. Daniel’s post: For me, this all started with Tom Lowe’s “Mountain Light”. (vimeo.com/6686768). I’d seen time-lapse cinematography before; thinking of it as a cool film trick, not much more. Tom’s work was the first time I’d seen motion controlled timelapse, and it may have also been the first time I’d seen astrophotography timelapse.

A few months later, I got a Canon 7D. After months of progress, I made a 5 minute film called “Eye of the Beholder” (vimeo.com/13794271) with a Canon 7D + Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 lens. I took small steps at first.
