I thought the same thing! When you see the land from far away, and at that angle, it really looks similar to the little toy towns people play with as kids. This is amazing!
Hey buddy, I used to watch your videos when I was 13. I'm 28 now, and I searched you up after randomly remembering your videos. I loved this kind of videos, please, make more of them again! 🎉❤ Cheers
Awesome. The effect is called Tilt-Shift or Miniature faking its a process in which a photograph of a life-size location or object is made to look like a photograph of a miniature scale model. Blurring parts of the photo simulates the shallow depth of field normally encountered in close-up photography, making the scene seem much smaller than it actually is. Many faked-miniature photographs are taken from a high angle to simulate the effect of looking down on a miniature.
The entire time I was trying to remember what that style of filming was called. Good thing you say it at the end - Tilt Shift, lol. Anyways...absolutely brilliant video. Made my day!
Herik77, I think it is a combination of certain color contrast and focus that creates an amount of blur that imitates what we experience when examining miniature things, so it confuses our perception senses.
Cool focus/angle combos! Stop the abuse, these are forums for the curious, let us all try to remain positive in what we say, with a proper focus in mind.
@InstrumentManiac Most of the time now this effect is created after the shot has been taken. You don't really need a specific camera, lens etc. You can use software to speed the video up and then blur certain parts of it. Technically, you could use a £30 digital camera and get a similar effects The higher the video resolution the better the effect, obviously.
You can use a special lens on your camera to do this. But if you want to fake the effect, then you make the top and bottom parts of the frame blurred out.
@BadBadRobot Still depends on the scene. I've seen far too many bad 'fake' tilt shifts because it's a huge job to mask out certain areas and blur everty detail properly in complex shots. Real titl shift has real depth of field. I don't want to assume what you do or don't know but anyone who undertsands what depth of field is will immediately appreciate many situations where it is actually cheaper (if you think of your time as money) to have the 'expensive' kit if you want to do this right.
i think the different between the sharp and the blur part should be much bigger (regarding the blurness) and the framerate is wrong, It is just speeded up, doesnt give the impression of the frame-by-frame movements like models.
the only shots that were semi successful were from 1:36 on up but i'd say adjust your shift tilt lens to give a narrower dof. on the center of your frame, try to boost your colors to give it a more plastic feel and as someone said before, lose some of the motion blur :) its a good video, it just doesn't look miniature.
you fixed the spelling, mate i hate when that happens....you put a vid up then you realise cause like 50 people have told you and you get the point, by that stage lol. awseome vid mate 5stars
I also thought that it was a city built in miniature. What the heck is this I can zoom out on google map and get the same effect. What is "tilt n shift" please educate me.
@InstrumentManiac There will never be a day when all the people in this world become aware of what they observe. Still entertaining though! to me anyway. xD
@SaucyBoii Sauce no disrepect to u,however if u dislike people's negative comments,then u MUST know what u are talking about before u open your mouth,which i'm sure u are doing know.btw feel free to send me any negative comment,i just luv them. peace.
Outstanding editing and presentation but massively disappointing in the one aspect that matters most. The "tilt shift" effect was almost entirely ineffective from start to finish! You could do worse than check out Keith Loutit's "Bathtub" series to learn how to do it properly. Then I think your videos would be outstanding!

This is amazing!
13 years later, I'm only JUST realizing that some of your filming locations are close to where my family lives
It's cool how slight alteration of lighting, shade, and slight blurriness at edges make it look like a miniature toy city

そうなんですか？
この前に行ったときは、写真カメラならいいけど、ビデオカメラはちょっと困りますみたいに言われました。
それにしても、素晴らしい作品ですね。
いつも見てる東京を、新しい視点から見させてもらった気分です。
感動しました。
Vision and perception can be very powerful things...
Some parts really look like they are miniature...
Great vid!
The entire time I was trying to remember what that style of filming was called. Good thing you say it at the end - Tilt Shift, lol.
Anyways...absolutely brilliant video. Made my day!
Very cool. It does look like model work when you pull back.
the models were very well crafted
but the lighting gave it away in just about every shot
I can not understand how this video seems to take a small panorama... lncredible
Excellent, equally as good as any production companies attempt, well done :).
Herik77, I think it is a combination of certain color contrast and focus that creates an amount of blur that imitates what we experience when examining miniature things, so it confuses our perception senses.
It's all real footage of real places in Japan. The camera he films with has a special lens on it that makes the scene look like a toy.
Your videos lead me to write and because of that, I am especially grateful!
V.T.
Cool video. Reminds of this Sims games. Great work.
A true art. Very nice.
sugoi !! ^^ great job ! and full exploring the potentials of the 5D MKII! ^^ NICE WORK !
Cool focus/angle combos! Stop the abuse, these are forums for the curious, let us all try to remain positive in what we say, with a proper focus in mind.
very relaxing in HD
I love your videos.

タワーホール船堀は三脚禁止なんですが、吸盤式ボールヘッドはどうでしょう？って現物見せて聞いてみたらＯＫしてくれました。後は望遠が駄目みたいです。
amazing dude!!! looks great in hdtv
wow.... amazing clips in there! luv it!
This is what the world looks like when I smoke a joint. 420 dude.
Beautiful
Excellent!
Super video,Super sound.
Great work... I like it. So professional...

SUPER VIDEO,SUPER SOUND
Great video and I love the music too!
awesome work!!!
Adult Swim had this a couple of years ago. Well several years ago.
Quero uma completa da cidade de tokyo
first show looks amazing ;-)
beautiful
This is the real world. He's using a technique called 'tilt shift' which make it look like it is a model-world.
@BadBadRobot

Real titl shift has real depth of field.

It´s AMAZING!
how was these film.... amazing
very very very very very very goooooood!!!!!
Yes prob. focus is the key.
Thanks man.
gotta love tilt shift!
If you focus more on the statics it looks more miniature
mesmerizing.....
Can We buy it and play this city as a God? ;> btw. Awesome effect and camera... :D
amazing!
Very good, I like the subtlety to the tilt shift. Almost seems organic did you use a real lens rather than the common choice to fake it?
Yup, filming in Japan is like cheating, cause it looks amazing and sleek everywhere you go !
very awesome
@604Aron Its a kind of photography using a specific type of lens. He didn't make anything. This is all real.
really nice video !!!!!
excellent!!

we are, but ants bustling about in our busy lives
Wow! I imagine that, assume this is future, how fast the cars are? and humans upgraded in walking? LOL just imagine....
@InstrumentManiac let him think its fake, thats more exciting than knowing that its just filmed with a tilt shift lense.
5/5 Perfection.
Great!
at first i thought it was graphics but its real WOW!
@Niggs3000 tilt-shift fake lense, the outter edges of the lense are further away from the camera "eye" if you will, making them appear blurry
quite easily/cleverly done,a part of the 'screen' is in 100% focus and others are a bit blurry =]
@thePENANCE

Very, very coooooo!!
this is cool! what kind of camera can do this?
troll detected!
I really would like to know what Saucyboii said now... man he is taking some flak!
EVERYTHING LOOKS LIKE A TOY
bellissimo!
Ever been to the Low Countries?
you fixed the spelling, mate i hate when that happens....you put a vid up then you realise cause like 50 people have told you and you get the point, by that stage lol. awseome vid mate 5stars
how the hell did you moved the people cars and ship this realistic?
were you actually zooming out while photographing or is that video editing at the end?
Timelapse + Tilt & Shift
I also thought that it was a city built in miniature. What the heck is this I can zoom out on google map and get the same effect. What is "tilt n shift" please educate me.
it is very good
awesome vid :)
Circular Polarizer filters = way too complex for me to understand.
Is this Japan? It looks so beautiful and clean.
whether this is a miniature or real-life city, i find the obtainment of these viewpoints impossible. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN?!?!?!?!?
LIKE THE VID!! very interesting!!
can u make a how to
i think mockmoon used continious shutter.
how did you do that?
ar 0:58 that really does look like a mini city
A real life sim city. :P
that camera is expensive..
船堀のタワーから撮らせてもらえたんですか？！
この前、行ったら断られたんですけど、こっそり撮っちゃった感じですか？
If it wasn't real, it would be awesome!!
It's called tilt shift. Wikipedia is your friend.... maybe your only one.
@InstrumentManiac There will never be a day when all the people in this world become aware of what they observe.
Still entertaining though! to me anyway. xD
nothing more than "awesome"
My city estimated
Population 670283
@SaucyBoii Sauce no disrepect to u,however if u dislike people's negative comments,then u MUST know what u are talking about before u open your mouth,which i'm sure u are doing know.btw feel free to send me any negative comment,i just luv them. peace.

@Shokeybutsi move to BC.
I dont understand this... Can someone explain this to me?
Are these model cities? Or are these real and videoed??
Cause this looks so cool.....
can you do a Beijing, China version of this, please?
