Koya Moments / An Edinburgh time lapse movie

Back


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).

Spectacular shots of a spectacular and beautiful city (where I lived for 2 years) set to stunningly beautiful music. All in all, one of my favourite videos on YouTube. Well done.
