I was commissioned to make this video by the British Embassy in Beijing as part of a series of videos to introduce diplomats and their families to Beijing. The time-lapses were shot on the Panasonic HPX170 by me and on the Canon 7D by Janek Zdzarski http://www.zdzarski.com The 'real-time' footage was shot in Ritan Park, central Beijing. Most of the time-lapses towards the end filmed at night were shot using the Frame Rate 'hack' on the HPX170 at 2fps with the shutter open a full 360 degrees in Film Cam mode 25PN. For another of my videos featuring this cool technique check out this behind-the-scenes promo I shot for BMW in Beijing. https://vimeo.com/22803391 For more info on the frame rate hack check out: http://panasonic.sixbullets.net/hvx200-framerate-hack.htm
