4 - Mountains in Motion

From Doug Urquhart and Paul Zizka, makers of the short film “Mountains in Motion”:

"Hours and even months of change lapses in a matter of seconds, providing the viewer with a rare insight into the ever-changing nature of the landscape. Weaving throughout the film are reflections of an early mountaineer, who is deeply moved by his own encounter with the mountains and the revelations of explorers who have come before him. “What is this power that lures me upwards, into the unknown,” he wonders, “that pulls me deeper, despite snow, wind and exhaustion?”

Made on a shoestring budget and with entirely volunteer hours, the film brought together artists from two vastly different parts of North America – Banff, Alberta, and Atlanta, Georgia. Strangers at the start, the film team developed strong friendships over the course of production and were united by their common goal of capturing the beauty and essence of a place that inspires them every day.

This 100% human-powered film combines advanced time-lapse photography with an original story and musical score to bring the landscape center-stage and offers a thrilling new perspective that re-establishes the Canadian Rockies among the finest mountains in the world."

5 - Supercut of Passageways in Ozu's Films

We've featured kogonada's supercuts before: Kubrick's One Point Perspective and the Sounds of Aronovsky.

From kogonada:

"The films of Ozu are filled with people walking through alleys and hallways: the in-between spaces of modern life. This is where Ozu resides. In the transitory. It’s what he values as a filmmaker. Alleys are not an opportunity for suspense but for passage. 

*Passageways is made up of Ozu’s final six films: Equinox Flower (Higanbana), Good Morning (Ohayo), Floating Weeds (Ukigusa), Late Autumn (Akibiyori), The End of Summer (Kohayagawa-ke no aki), and An Autumn Afternoon (Sanma no aji)"

5 Most Beautiful Posts of 2012

Not in any particular order, the 5 most beautiful posts we've made this year.

1. Van Gogh's Starry Sky Remade with Images from Hubble Telescope

Harvard PhD student Alex Parker use the top 100 images from the Hubble telescope and a mosaic-making program to make this stunning version of Van Gogh’s masterpiece.

2. The Form of the Body

On Body Forms: Photos by Klaus Kampert

3. Samsara

Director and cinematographer Ron Ficke (Koyaanisqatsi, Baraka) has been hard at work on Samsara for 5 years. The entire film is shot in stunning 70mm. It is a film that relies completely on its visual impact and cinematographic juxtaposition, as there isn't any dialogue. 

Beautifully shot short film on the letterpress.

5. Timelapse of Meteor Shower Over Joshua Tree

via The Atlantic Master Feed:

"In Ascendance, nature photographer Henry Jun Wah Lee documents the Perseid meteor shower at its peak in August, before a backdrop of Joshua Tree National Park and the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest. It's worth watching the video full screen to appreciate the crisp cinematography and magical details -- rainbows, stars, and more. "
