I was just talking to someone about tilt shift videos the other day and how amazing they were, but I couldn’t remember where I saw them… As I was going to sleep, I came across these amazing examples on the ISO50 blog. The videos are from photographer Keith Loutit and definitely kept me up much longer than I wanted. My favorite is the “Metal Heart” video from the monster truck show… The colors are amazing and looking at this event through the tilt shit lens makes the whole thing extremely toyish… Monster trucks and tilt shift, each on their own, are very toyish, but putting them together creates an amazing result. There are a few other beach videos that are definitely worth a watch and I didn’t even bother embedding the rest of them, because you need to go to Keith Loutit’s Vimeo page and watch them in HD… I also posted some screen shots after the jump!
Japan is on the tip-top of yet to experience travel destinations for me, and this video just makes me want to go there even more. I came across it on Wejetset, which has some amazing travel content in their Magazine. The video above is from a guy name Eric Testroete and you can check out all the photos in individual form on his flickr page.
The Selby is a site by photographer Todd Selby documenting peoples homes. I have no idea how it took me so long to find out about the site, but I definitely spent a few hours going through it the other night. Rather than just focusing on the home and furniture, the photos also document what the people have in their homes, like books, toys, art, etc… And there is even a few offices thrown in the mix. My favorites would have to be Alexander Wang’s office and Paola Kudacki and James Penfold’s apartment. They also have amazing watercolor illustrations to go along each photo set and some pretty sweet hand written questionnaires.
