Go Inside a Panoramic Timelapse of the Northern Lights Like Never Before

Astrophotographer Goran Strand has created a new way to experience timelapse of aurora borealis: an immersive video that lets you move the camera around 360 degrees. Explains PetaPixel, "Strand shot a total of 2,461 RAW photographs that amounted to about 30 gigabytes in disk space. The photographs were shot using a circular fisheye lens, allowing Strand to capture the entire scene above and in every direction with single exposures. For this immersive panorama time-lapse, he converted each of the spherical photos to a new projection that would fit into a sphere-shaped environment. He then embedded the time-lapse video into an interactive video player that plays that imagery projected onto the inside of a sphere. What you see is four hours of aurora activity compressed into two minutes." Read more and see the immersive video here.

'Jurassic Park:' How a 2D Movie Becomes a 3D Movie

Jason Bailey of Flavorwire writes: Today, moviegoers across the country will have the opportunity to see a 20-year-old movie on the big screen — and with an extra dimension to boot. Jurassic Park 3D is the latest case of a two-dimensional movie getting the three-dimensional (or “stereo”) treatment, following in the footsteps of several Disney titles and last year’s 3D re-release of Titanic. Since this is a new process, one that’s not yet been painstakingly demystified by DVD extras and behind-the-scenes reports, it seems, frankly, to be some sort of witchcraft; how do they take a movie that was finished two decades ago and transform it into a 3D experience? Luckily, we were able to get William Sherak to break it down for us. READ THE FULL STORY HERE.

How Filmmakers Can Get the Most Out of Their Colorists

Colorist Aaron Peak (Hot Tub Time Machine, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1) talks to Film Independent about the symbiotic relationship between a filmmaker and colorist. He says, "Filmmakers can do several things in pre-production and on set to help the colorist and their pictures. Whenever possible, a film production should have a post house and/or colorist signed on and involved in the process as early as they can. Rarely are pre-production services charged for and they will save the film money and time in the long run. This relationship can optimize the camera imaging workflow specifically for the needs of production and post. These are efficiencies that can lead to less work for editorial and conform and also provide a better image on set." Read the full interview here.
