| Antarctica Time lapse: A Year on Ice |
 |
A better quality copy of this clip can be found at

Time-lapse video filmed in Antarctica, in and
around McMurdo Station and Scott Base.
Each year the sun is below the horizon for 4
months in the middle of winter, and above the
horizon for 4 months in summer. During the couple
of months in between we have more-or-less normal
days.
Includes shots of auroras and the very rare polar
stratospheric nacreous clouds, which form when
ozone depleting gases crystallize in the upper
atmosphere in the intense cold.
Summer population is about 1200 people, winter
about 200.
This is just a small sample of an ongoing project
to collect time-lapse imagery of Antarctica. I
have taken over 1,000,000 individual photos and
worn out a number of cameras that make up the
collection of footage I have gathered so far over
the last 6 years. Eventually a film will be
released, keep an eye on my user page for more
info in the future.
Check out my other videos as well for more of
life on the Ice.
For those of you who have been asking about the
music I used here, the first piece of music is
"Whirl-Y-Reel" by Afro Celt Sound System, the
second is "The Grand Finale" from the Edward
Scissorhands soundtrack by Danny Elfman. Both are
available at most music outlets.

Interesting note: You can actually see the Crude
Awakening Oil Derrick go up even though it's about
3/4 mile away! There is a brilliant flash that
illuminates the scene. Here is a high resolution
still:

Background:
I was originally asked by Tom Price to do this
timelapse, and I thought it was an awesome idea.
It's been done before by the Folding-Time guys,
but they didn't set up this year. The images were
captured by a Canon G3 mounted in a weatherproof
housing of my own design up on a 20 foot pole next
to the Powertainer. There were 18,486 images shot
at 2272x1704 which is almost 4 megapixels each.
Some of the full-size stills are stunning! The
camera was controlled by a custom Daemon I wrote
using the Gphoto library, which ran on the
Powertainer's Slackware linux system and the
images were stored full-size on a hard drive.
After the event, I ran another piece of code that
downsampled the images to 640x480 then composed
them at 30fps into a MPEG-4 video. My friend Tom
Sepe added the Music and Titles for me and Voila!
I hope to make a more portable rig for future use
incorporating an embedded linux system and flash
memory. Contact me for more information, to hire
me for interesting geekery, or just to geek out.
=)

| Koya Moments / An Edinburgh time lapse movie |

Philip Glass
Violin Concerto, 1st movement
Adele Anthony, violin
Ulster Orchestra
Naxos CD 8.554568
In tribute to Ron Fricke who filmed Koyaanisqatsi
( one of my favourite films) This film charts the
progress of the day and night, the changing light,
weather and progress of the moon and stars .
Enjoy ( do enjoy as it took two years to make!)
Technical assistance was by Alistair Meldrum who
provided the specs for the pans and other things
well beyond me, drove me places and had to give up
a lot of his own time-lapse due to me getting
there first.
Music ( shamefully I forgot to add this to the
final version credits) Phillip Glass from his
violin concerto.
Video editing - greatly helped by Rene Orielly who
pointed the way to good editing and who was not at
all shy by giving rough comments ( and i like
that)
Video testers- David Watt, Dougie Nicol, Janet
McSherry, Ian Wishart, Ian Hartley ( if its crap,
they have no problem telling me so).
