What We’re Watching: Stunning Timelapse in 4K

03 02 2016

We first worked with Chris Pritchard on an Intel campaign years ago and have continued to seek opportunities for collaboration ever since.

His stunning timelapse work is the subject of a new film selected as a Vimeo Staff Pick last week entitled “Skylight.” Chris compiled shots over a span of five and a half years from New York to LA to New Zealand to Illinois to Singapore to Sydney and beyond to give voice to the one constant across locations: the sky. “No matter our lifestyle or surroundings, we all share the same world above us. The sky holds the power to make a good view great, ant to mesmerize us with the wonders of the world – within our atmosphere and beyond,” the filmmaker elaborates on his site.

The film runs just over three minutes but in fact it covers 36 hours of real-life time shot in 42 locations. Across locations it captures an incredible meteor and shows the star scape in even the most unlikely of places (like the pollution-heavy sky around Los Angeles). Prepare to be awestruck when you watch the film above.
