Video Eye Candy – Dubai From On High

You are viewing an old revision of this post, from 28 January, 2012 @ 12:01. See below for differences between this version and the current revision.

A dramatic view of Dubai City and its most iconic buildings.

This is a ‘director’s cut’ posted only a couple of days ago by pro film-maker, Philip Bloom , who was commissioned by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, to shoot footage of Dubai and its two most famous buildings, the Burj al Arab and the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

Ok, it’s yet another tilt-shifted, timelapsed video (we’re not getting tired of them, yet), but the cityscapes are stunning even if the music is a little… portentous!

Philip describes his gear & technique on his blog.
