Toronto Timelapse

Moody timelapse captures cinematic Toronto

Creating a great timelapse video requires a lot of patience and hard work. Often just a few seconds of footage requires hundreds of exposures, and hours of waiting around. Filmmaker Preston Kanak doesn't seem to mind, though. In fact he's made an art of this medium. Currently on a mission to create a three minute video everyday for a year, he was recently in Toronto to shoot the piece embedded below.

Filmed over the course of just 48 hours, this clip takes viewers on a thrilling trip above Toronto, through various downtown neighborhoods, and down several major streets, all shot from rooftops above the city.

Check it out.
