Get inspired with Eirik Evjen’s beautiful video, Tiny\u00a0Capital<\/em>. \u00a0This standout tilt-shift project was shot over the course of 10 days in the capital of Norway, Oslo.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tilt-shift photography and video<\/strong>\u00a0has been quite the rage in recent years, using selective focus to give scenes the appearance of miniaturization. \u00a0DSLR cameras and post-production tilt-shift effects<\/strong> have no doubt stoked the enthusiasm for this unique type of photography.<\/p>\n

Eirik Evjen’s T<\/em>iny Capital <\/em>has a few unique characteristics that separate it from many of the tilt-shift projects <\/strong>getting made today. \u00a0Instead of using post-production filters and effects, Eirik shot using specialty tilt-shift lenses<\/strong> (45mm and 85mm lenses on a Nikon D3s DSLR). \u00a0This means there was no ability to “fix it in post” and the result is an effect that has a distinctively organic feel.<\/p>\n

The final video is a compilation of over 75,000 still shots taken from over 90 locations around Oslo. \u00a0The tilt-shift treatment<\/strong> is highly effective because the majority of the shots were done from a high aerial angle, perfect for emphasizing the miniature aspect of that effect.<\/p>\n
