Queen and Broadview - a one-shot video

One-shot, slow-motion piece shot from a streetcar as it turned from Queen Street onto Broadview in Toronto. Interesting to me how the tone of the street changes during the turn, revealing a strip club, and how certain pedestrians are prominent for a time.

Shot using Slomo app on an iPhone5. Slowed to 25% normal speed in-app. Edited in Final Cut Pro, and slowed down a little more.

Open up Apple Motion and select Generator as the type of asset you want to create. Choose Custom as the resolution for your video...
