This Time-Lapse Video Makes Us Feel Like We're Floating Through Life

Only after discovering the last video we posted on Singapore,  one of our readers sends us this other gem. We're on a time-lapse roll here!

Although it's been out for a while, it is one worth sharing for those that haven't had a chance to see it. It has a completely different tempo and skill-set involved in creating this story we're taken through. 

Rob Whitworth literally makes us feel like we're not only flowing through time, but space as well. I imagine this is what being a ghost must feel like. I still can't figure out how he made some of those scenes. As you keep watching, it keeps getting better and better.

Pst, stick around for the sky-diving scene. 

The best part is the whimsical nature of the progression. It seriously adds an element of wonder as you go on the journey. 

Take a look: 

Rob writes: 

My first impression of Dubai was that of super-tall buildings jutting out of the desert sand. However, after 3 months of exploration, research and filming, my lasting impression is of the eternal wonder of the desert and the importance it holds for the Emirati people.

Dubai may be home to the world’s most outrageous skyline but Dubai’s desert dunes and historical creek are where you’ll find its soul.

A special thank you to Dubai Film for making this project possible and for providing the extraordinary access which enabled me to realize this story.
