Yes and no. Tilt-shift is one way to get the narrow focus, but the effect can be done in post production just as effectively. Time lapse provides the stop motion effect.

Looks like a “Thomas the Tank Engine” episode. Cool!
That’s exactly what I thought.
Wow, I could watch this over and over again. How cool would it be to have something like this of Decatur?

We’ll have to get PMcG to do a Decatur movie…

So I’m guessing this is a time lapse with a tilt-shift lens?
Experts? Clue me in!

Hope you enjoy his work as much as I do.
sweet! his videos are awesome!
I could waste the whole day watching these. May have to rent a TS one of these days.
Reminds me a little of “Koyaanisqatsi” but in miniature. Note the High Line at 3:19.
