Spirit of Soho

  • Paloma Hernandez Leon
In the begging we have planned 3 different plans for time lapse in Soho Street, and we come to the decision of creating a time lapse based on the streets in Soho. Our original plan was to create time lapse based on early morning light to night-lights in Soho Street but in the end we have decided to change our plans to focus on Soho Street in the afternoon with focusing on the streets and lights (as in theatre decorations where they use lights to decorate and stand out the theatre). We have taken 2 sets of images in oxford and Piccadilly in the afternoon, which are in different days but around same time and our time-lapse video of Soho street is 2.35 seconds long and the whole video is created in fast motion capturing the streets and the street lights. When we where making the video thought carefully if we should add filters and we have decided not to add any filter to any of the pictures because we thought the pictures look better with non-filters on, and on the other hand we thought carefully over what kind of music we should combine it with our video and we decided to go with classic music and thought over Bettoween, Mozart and so on but in the end we have decided to go with “The Streets of Cairo” produced by “James Thornton”. Lastly we have considered the copy right by adding the our names and “The Streets of Cairo” produced by James Thornton at the end of our time lapse based on Soho street and street lights video.
