This Flow Motion Video Will Blow Your Mind. Guaranteed.

Dubai Time Flow

Forget everything you know about the word ‘amazing’ as this flow motion video of Dubai has just redefined the word.

Using his signature flow motion technique, filmmaker Rob Whitworth shows us once again why he is one of the most prominent time-lapsers these days.

This jaw-dropping video joins Whitworth’s incredible flow motion video of Barcelona and is sure to become an all time favorite.

 

Dubai Flow Motion from Rob Whitworth on Vimeo.

Whitworth wrote about this project on his Vimeo account:

“My first impression of Dubai was that of super-tall buildings jutting out of the desert sand. However, after 3 months of exploration, research and filming, my lasting impression is of the eternal wonder of the desert and the importance it holds for the Emirati people.

Dubai may be home to the world’s most outrageous skyline but Dubai’s desert dunes and historical creek are where you’ll find its soul.”

The video currently has 947 views, as it was released just an hour ago, but I am willing to bet the number will be in the millions before too long.

Dubai Film made two extended videos available as well, both in 4K for our extended viewing pleasure:

 

 

We do not have any tech specs regarding the video itself, but we know the following equipment was used to create it, thanks to Time Lapse Network:

 

To make your day even more awesome, watch Whitworth’s previous flow motion video which was commissioned by the Catalan tourism board.

The latest flow motion video of Dubai was made possible by Dubai Film, who were also involved in the dumbfounding 8-terapixel 360 degree virtual tour of Dubai.

  • The headline totally turned me off, but that was pretty amazing.

  • WOW.

  • doge

    meh

  • Rick

    Mildly impressed. Definitely not mind blown.

    • Post a link to your work, that’s better.

      • Rick.

        At issue here is click-bait title on the article. Please try and keep up.

        • Totally hear you. But if this is only mildly impressive to you, you certainly have better to exhibit. Do show us.

          • Rick

            Clearly you don’t hear me (or you’re just being a troll). I expect it’s the latter.

          • I’m a complete troll. But seems like if someone looks at someone else’s work and publicly call it mildly impressive, there would be some sort of follow up.

          • Jim Johnson

            Here’s a follow up… I am impressed by the amount of work and the accomplishment of the thing, but I have to say, I find the aesthetic rather off putting. I hated it when Baz Luhrman did it, and I hate it here.

          • Well said.

          • Mike

            So I am only allowed to be unimpressed by something if I can do better? (For the record, I am impressed by this video, for the video editing skill more than the photography.)

  • Morgan Glassco

    amazing

  • godling

    wow… amazing indeed

  • Wow amazing, great work.

  • Rick Scheibner

    While it’s impressive, it’s not exactly breaking any ground. The soundtrack alone sounds a lot like Ben Canales’ “Finding Oregon” from three years ago. Take a look for yourself: https://vimeo.com/32852978
