Discovery III: A 4K Timelapse Film of the Western U.S.
A collection of aerial and timelapse photography throughout Western United States.
Discovery Part III- A 4K Timelapse Film from Jonathan Mitchell on Vimeo.
Two years ago I started a journey into timelapse photography and in turn started this series Discovery. Working on this personal project has meant a lot to me. I wanted to push myself in both my creativity but also connect more with the outdoors.
Discovery III revisits familiar places from the first two films but also many new ones. A journey through the seasons from the lush waterfalls of Oregon to the fall colors of Colorado to remote alpine lakes and even snow covered Eastern Sierras.
Searching for a song is one of the most difficult things when making a film. You want it to complement the visuals and help move the story along. I settled on a song by Ryan Taubert called “Becoming Human”. The heavy orchestral component and flow of the song lended itself well for the combination of timelapse and aerial video.
