Little Workers - Fun Time Lapse
Friday, June 26, 2009 at 4:08PM 
Hi All - James Here,
Recently while filming an episode of Dirt Time, we had a lot of lulls in shooting (some major earth moving going on...which is a big time killer).
I used the opportunity to shoot some pretty neat timelapse footage with the intention of applying a 'Tilt Shift' technique to it. It's a trick that I've been wanting to play around with for a while now and this project was the perfect opportunity to do so.
So, here is a fun little piece showing us moving dirt and building a low water crossing just outside of Sacramento.
Take a look and let us know what you think.

Nice TimeLapse video! Great work.
It's beautiful and the soundtrack is spot on. (If you haven't already seen it, check out Todd Haynes's brilliant Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story. It's the film that launched him. Todd went to my university a few years before me and he's been an influence on me since.)

Wow. That was really good. Neat to see what goes on when something is being constructed.
Great video. Wishing I had the equipment to try making my own. I'd love to see a time lapse video on the Dept of Holidays, I mean Highways, to see how much they stand around.
