While shooting the creation of the "TRANSFORM" turf-itti at Tower Works a couple of weekends back, I also had a stab at some time-lapse photography of the creation. Hadn't done this before, consequently many lessons learnt, mainly to keep an eye on battery power of the camera and avoid it shooting when nothing happening for hours on end (hence why the TRANSFORM is suddenly half-written :-/ )

This was shot from the roof-garden on top of Candle House, where the event that this was created for was to take place - I set a spare camera up on a tripod on a 30 second interval timer and left it going for the day - bit un-nerving leaving a camera on it's own somewhere!

If you want to see the video bigger (it's in roughly 720p HDTV, shrunk down for this page tho), check out the vimeo page for it.

It's been a little while since I last did a blog post, so I thought I'd post a sequence of images from some photography freelance work I did at the weekend; The brief was to document the construction of an art installation by UNIT in the grounds of Tower Works, in Holbeck Urban Village - to be viewable from the garden atop the new Candle House skyscraper at Granary Wharf.

The installation was the word "Transform" written in grass 32M wide, that demonstrates that the area is undergoing much regeneration, a celebration of a week of Urban Gardening related activities in the area, and via the pixel-styling of the typeface a nod towards the area being a hub for digital and media companies.

Anyway, here's a series of photos I took to document the day:
