Tilt Shift Photography

Tilt-shift photography manipulates the camera so that a life-sized location or subject looks like a miniature-scale model.
Kind of fun use of the medium.

It’s usually used in arhitectral photography to compensate for perspective distortion but yeah it’s fun. Especially with the new SLR cameras that can shoot HD video (like the Canon 5D MkII) we’re also seeing a new wave of tilt-shift applied to videography.

Actually, it just makes me nostalgic for those great tank shots with Alfred Korngold music playing in the background as the Black Swan fires broadsides into HMS Intrepid.

Ironic; my wife spends time trying to make photos of her miniatures look life-size.

When you add motion, this gets really fun. The key to making the illusion work over time is to speed things up dramatically.
One of the best examples I’ve seen is this clip of a monster truck rally (via Boing Boing).
Hysterical.

Like many things photographic, the tilt-shift technique is huge in Japan. And I think Japanese landscapes are particularly well suited to it. There are some more good images here: http://weburbanist.com/2008/12/01/tilt-shift-photos-life-size-miniature-photography/ and here: http://neilduckett.com/tilt-shift-pictures-of-japan/

Boing Boing just posted this link to a website that will transform any photo you upload to give it a tilt-shift look. It’s cool, check it out:

I was just playing around with tiltshiftmaker yesterday. It provides a nice hour of mindless internet amusement.
Good clean fun: just what the internet needs these days.

Here’s a really nice day-in-life sequence of LA, shot around Silverlake, Echo Park, Los Feliz, etc. by Clark Vogeler.
It’s very Sunday afternoon.
