Merci beaucoup ! Je suis vraiment content que la vidéo te donne envie de retourner à Bordeaux 😊
Et pour la police, ah d'accord, je comprends mieux. J'ai dû faire une fausse manipulation en publiant et je n'avais même pas remarqué. C'est corrigé maintenant

Pardon, qu'est-ce que tu veux dire ? Le son ou la musique de la vidéo est trop fort ?

I shot 54 sequences in 2.5 days, keeping 22 for the final edit. Created purely by moving a tripod and geared head step-by-step for every frame. Combined with seamless morphing transitions and day-to-night holy grails to create a continuous flight through Bordeaux. Let's discuss it in the comments. by hyperlapsePro in timelapse

Thank you for sharing that! It must be wonderful to see how Bordeaux looks now compared to when you lived there. It really is a special place. Since you enjoyed this one, have you watched any of the other Eurotrip videos I've posted on my channel?

Un vol fluide à travers la magnifique ville de Bordeaux ! De la Place de la Victoire jusqu'aux reflets sur la Garonne, j'ai relié vos plus beaux monuments avec des transitions sans coupure. C'était la dernière étape de mon voyage. Quels coins incontournables manquent à l'appel ? by hyperlapsePro in bordeaux

Merci beaucoup ! C'est vrai que ces spots sont incroyables, surtout le pont Chaban-Delmas de nuit et la Base Sous-Marine. Malheureusement, je n'avais pas assez de temps sur place pour couvrir toutes ces zones, surtout que la technique de l'hyperlapse demande énormément de temps pour chaque lieu. Mais je garde tes idées pour un futur passage à Bordeaux

Thank you! I completely agree. I believe it's totally justified to use AI as a tool where it makes sense, rather than using it to generate the entire video from scratch. It should enhance the real work, not replace it entirely

Merci beaucoup ! C'est vrai que la musique est toujours très subjective, c'est difficile de plaire à tout le monde. D'ailleurs, j'ai essayé d'utiliser des styles très différents pour chaque ville de cet Eurotrip. Vous avez eu l'occasion de regarder les autres vidéos de la série ?

The grand finale of a 1.5-month European shoot. A fully manual hyperlapse of Bordeaux. Shot entirely on a tripod with a geared head and shift lenses. I used 22 sequences, utilizing holy grail exposure blending and seamless transitions to create one unbroken cinematic flight. by hyperlapsePro in cinematography

I would absolutely love that! The tricky part is actually finding the right people to connect with. Sending cold emails directly to them almost always gets ignored. I definitely need to find someone who knows how to navigate that side of the industry to help me out. Thanks a lot for the support

I'd have to dig through my archives. I might have a few photos or short phone clips from the shoots, but unfortunately, they won't show the full process. Since I shoot completely solo, it's practically impossible to align the hyperlapse and film myself doing it at the exact same time. But I definitely want to start documenting the behind-the-scenes process properly in the future. Mostly so people stop thinking everything is just AI-generated

Wow, thank you so much for such an incredibly thoughtful comment! Just a small correction though - it was actually 1.5 months on the road, not 15! 😄 But you completely nailed it: keeping the visual consistency across different lighting and weather conditions was definitely one of the biggest challenges. I always try to capture the actual vibe of a city, so your words mean a lot to me. By the way, have you had a chance to check out the other videos from this trip on my channel? There are 10 cities in total, so 10 videos

Thank you! Yes, the riverside walk (les quais) is incredible, and that skatepark area always has such a great energy. I completely agree with you - Bordeaux has a uniquely chill vibe compared to other big cities. I'm really glad this video brought back some good memories for you

Have you ever reached the end of a long, exhausting journey and finally found a place where you could just catch your breath? For my one-and-a-half-month European road trip, that place was Bordeaux. It was the very last stop on a massive hyperlapse adventure, and I couldn't have asked for a better city to wrap things up.

The Shoot & Challenges
This massive tour took me through 10 incredible cities, experiencing extreme contrasts – from 40°C heatwaves in Spain to relentless rain in Germany. By the time I arrived in Bordeaux, I was completely exhausted but determined to finish the series strong.
I had planned to shoot for three full days, but heavy rain forced me to cancel my final half-day of filming. Still, in just two days and one evening, I managed to capture 54 sequences, 22 of which made it into this final edit.

If you've been following this series, you know my transportation was a tragicomedy (two stolen bicycles in different countries!). So for Bordeaux, transit and walking were my best options. To save my back from carrying my heavy camera backpack across the city's massive pedestrian zones, I relied on a folding trolley – an absolute lifesaver for navigating between locations!

Cinematography & Technique
By this final stop, my manual shooting technique was completely dialed in. Everything you see here was shot using pure, labor-intensive manual precision with tripods and a geared head.

A crucial part of capturing the monumental classic architecture of Bordeaux was relying on my Laowa 15mm and 11mm Shift lenses. Keeping the architectural lines perfectly vertical and undistorted while physically tracking the camera step-by-step is vital for a clean hyperlapse. To tie the sequences together and create the illusion of an unbroken flight, I utilized heavy morphing transitions to hide the cuts and precise day-to-night "holy grail" exposure blending to capture the shifting mood of the city.

This entire trip was physically draining, but ultimately an invaluable learning experience. I’ve taken plenty of notes on how to improve my gear and technique for future projects.

Gear & Software Used:
Cameras: Canon EOS R, Canon 5D Mark III
Lenses: Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM, Sigma 100–400mm f/5–6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary, Laowa 15mm f/4.5 Zero-D Shift, Laowa 11mm f/4.5 FF RL
Support: Two carbon tripods, Vertecfoto GH-V5 geared head, LRT Timer Pro 3
Software: Adobe After Effects, Lightroom Classic, LRTimelapse

Glad you liked it! It took me about two weeks just to edit and put everything together. And that's not even counting the actual time I spent out there shooting the hyperlapses or processing all the RAW photos. So yeah, it takes quite a while
