Look Tiny












Tilt-shifting is a post-production technique of reducing the focus and increasing the contrast of an image to produce a fun effect on perspective. A demonstration of the tilt-shift technique of turns helicopter fly-over films into what looks like outtakes from Beetlejuice. A how-to for anyone with the tools or time, and an example using BBC footage of Pittsburgh, which may be of some interest to some of you.

yay pittsburgh! that picture you've posted looks like Mr Rogers' Neighborhood. except i'm pretty sure the images from the show were really just little models and not some fancy technology.

you should move back to pittsburgh.
