Amsterdam - My Home 4K | Timelapse Film

  • Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
  • My long awaited timelapse film about my current hometown Amsterdam is finally finished! This film consists of footage shot during a 2 year period (mostly before COVID), has all different seasons transitioning into each other and even has a lunar eclipse above the city skyline.
    With this timelapse film I wanted to create something unique. I wanted to create a visual experience with beauty, flow and emotion. I want locals to be proud of their city when they watch this film, and tourists wanting to visit (even more). I put this all in a film packed with little details. There’s a big ‘fun facts’ list that can all be read on a dedicated page I created.
    Amsterdam is one of the most beautiful (and relatively little) cities in the world. Our city is not ‘spectacular’ as it does not have impressive skyscrapers and hyper modern buildings. But It’s just the whole atmosphere with our beautiful old buildings, romantic canals and everything that comes with it.
    I’m super excited to finally release this film and I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed creating it.
    For more info, gear, image galleries and fun facts, please check the whole project at www.timelapseamsterdam.com

    I am from the beautiful Greece, however I believe Amsterdam is the most beautiful European city for me. That's why i have been there four times and everytime i notice something different something new! This video is a masterpiece. Reflects in the best way what Amsterdam is. Combines a western Metropolitan area with picturesque and traditional architecture. It's a city full of life but in the same time gives you a calmness! In the video i saw all of these and much more reasons to love Amsterdam! This from a person who loves New York but after this video i would choose Amsterdam!Congratulations for your job!

    This is without doubt the single most beautiful and astonishing piece of video I have seen focusing on my favourite city in the whole world. It is absolutely stunning. Wow. Everything about it is just incredible, the edits, the dissolves, the sound, the execution, the colours...it really does condense into just 5 succinct minutes what every other video on Amsterdam that I have trawled RUclips for the past few years has tried to do....it even messes with your sense of time, the sheer relentless pace of the imagery and yet what felt like several minutes was only two...and then when five minutes comes along you feel as if you had just witnessed about an hour's worth of footage, and beyond! Getting those shots inside the tram is beyond astonishing! That sense of intensity of movement is all so real!!
    I have been back to the city 20 times in just over as many years, repeated visits made simply because I had long fallen in love with the whole Dutch way of life. Once I'd done the initial selected obvious 'tourist' sights from the first two trips in 1999, I didn't need to do that again, instead exploring wider and further afield and getting to know the various outer neighbourhoods of the city, including the Noord side across the river Ij....plus a few outlying cities too like Haarlem and - recently - the beautiful Utrecht.
    I really wish I could live there in the Netherlands though, unfortunately I am stuck here in the UK in another maritime city with a lot of undoubted history but not much decent [social or other] infrastructure: the place of my birth - Liverpool.
    This unbelievable little film just makes me yearn to be back there seeing those exact same landmarks and sights all over again......what a masterwork! Thank you!

    Insanely cool and creative! All that work gone into shooting through the seasons, into editing and even the sound effects. The best timelapse I’ve ever seen, and by accident it happens to be of my favourite European capital ;). Goed gedaan!
