I don't have a favorite movie or a favorite book or favorite band. But I have a favorite time scaled video. It shows an owl. Make sure the quality is set to 1080p and you are in fullscreen mode, or you'll miss half the action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji_x8RU4zIo&NR=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji_x8RU4zIo&NR=1
It's just an animal doing what it's doing, no post processing or dramatic cuts. Yet, watching all the details of what's happening in the short sequence amazes me every time I watch it. It's also the only thing I ever had on my screen that made my cat show a reaction (she treats it like a wall otherwise).
edit: Had conflated time lapse and slow motion. Fixed the text and will never come to Hackernews while having my mind filled with other work again. Ever.
- wlesieutre 13y agoWhile the owl is neat, slow motion is basically the opposite of time lapse
- baddox 13y agoI'd call it more of a dual than an opposite. They're both showing you things you cannot see with the "naked eye" due to time limitations.
