Swan River Sunset from Luke Brooks on Vimeo.

This is a time-lapse of the sun setting over the Swan River in Perth. Shot with a 28mm lens and canon 7D over two hours. I did some post processing in After Effects to get the nice colours and added some blur to smooth out the background. If you really wanna know more about how its done and put together I’ll gladly write about it, otherwise enjoy.
Below is a still from the time-lapse with a quick edit in photoshop.

Cottesloe Beach, Tilt Shift Fakery – 7D from Luke Brooks on Vimeo.

After getting my hands on a neat little plug-in for Final Cut Pro I knew I had to try it out. Shrink ray by Crumple pop gives your videos a tilt shift effect with very little effort and is fully configurable. Just follow the online videos and instruction and everything will be working in minutes. I went down to Perth’s Cotteslose beach on a busy sunday and filmed some quick shots with my 7D to try the affect on. Everything worked out really well and the video looks great, I can’t wait to find more excuses to use this effect.
