  • Paris 2011

    Paris 2011 – Super 8 Footage from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I’ve been digging through some old files on my hard disk and found some Super 8 footage I shot nearly five years ago on a day trip to Paris. So I’ve edited it a bit and added the inevitable Yé Yé Girl soundtrack.

  • Paris-Roubaix 2015 – In Slow Motion

    Paris Roubaix 2015 – Slowmo from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I came across this footage which I shot at last year’s Paris-Roubaix race. The race is just over 250km and includes 27 cobbled sectors, one of which I was standing by to shoot this. I uploaded my stills of the race last year. I used…

  • BBC Store – Initial Thoughts

    After much ballyhoo, the BBC Store is finally with us, and well, um, it sells downloads and streams. You buy episodes rather than rent them – although the prices are much of a muchness really with television. And then you play them back via the web, or in due course, mobile apps. To be honest,…

  • Obelisk, Trent Park

    Trent Park Obelisk from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I spent a little of Saturday shooting this drone video with my DJI Phantom 3 Advanced. Go HD full screen!

  • A Sheringham Timelapse

    Sheringham Timelapse from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. Here’s a timelapse shot in North Norfolk before Christmas around sunset on two consecutive days. Obviously I really needed to spend more time capturing material, but I thought it was worth putting this together. (In case it’s not obvious from some recent blogposts, I’m spending some productive time…

  • Trent Park – Drone Footage

    Trent Park from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I’ve been playing with my DJI Phantom 3 Advanced a little more. Things that I need to spend more time include optimising the video output for Vimeo (I’m using Premiere Pro CC’s “Vimeo 1080” setting here, but I’m not happy with it, and Vimeo says that I can…

  • Experiments in Slow Motion

    Experiments in Slow Motion from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. I’ve been meaning to playing a little more with the slow motion capabilities of my Sony Xperia Z3 Compact a little more. I’ve just put together this from video shot earlier in the year. Actually summer would be a much better time to be out playing…

  • The Ridgeway

    Ridgeway from Adam Bowie on Vimeo. DJI Phantom 3 Advanced footage taken near the Ridgeway near Enfield, just north of London. You can just about see some of the buildings of Canary Wharf in the distance (about 15 miles away), and the M25 is also visible in one shot. Music: "Train" by Dexter Britain (http://www.dexterbritain.co.uk)…

  • Electric Storm

    I love a good electric storm, and we had one in London last night (indeed most of the country). I pounced into action with photo, audio and video. That said, I’m not altogether happy with my results. The above represents the best photo I took. There are a couple of video frame grabs below, but…

  • Hyperlapse

    Microsoft has recently released its Hyperlapse tool – in Windows, Windows Phone and Android formats. I decided to put it to the test with a video shot on my commute home. I shot the video at quite a high frame-rate which probably didn’t help. Anyway, the result of the software is below. At the moment…

  • #LapseLondon – Final Video

    Triggertrap has just published the finished #LapseLondon video: LapseLondon from Triggertrap on Vimeo. I’m pleased that a couple of my segments made the cut. Read more about the day and see a behind the scenes video here. And to see a fuller version of my shots, check out this post.

  • #LapseLondon

    Last weekend, Triggertrap, the people who make smart phone adaptors for your DSLR cameras, organised an event called #LapseLondon. About forty of us assembled at their offices for some really interesting talks before heading out into a winter London. I managed to not follow the right technical instructions with my first shoot on Carnaby Street…
