  • Glowing congestus clouds rambling at sunset, tall…

    Scene notes:

    The denser the cloud, the less light the outside areas will allow the light to penetrate through, and this fact is displayed on these towering clouds at sunset. The slower speed is gentler to watch for those who may become motion sickness by watching playback closely. This is an issue for media buyers who have a different experience (after scrutinizing the clip on repeat) than those end-viewers who will only see the clip once. Time-lapse length (at 30 fps):52 seconds and 24 frames.

    Scene notes:

    …clouds are illuminated from beyond the horizon, and below. Altocumulus Castellanus are mid-level clouds and have very intricate details, which are highlighted during sunset. A three second interval was used to show the progress of the colors shifting in the all-sky scene which is particularly majestic; these moderately dense clouds are named after the castle tops that sprout from streaking plumes.

  • Fast low-level clouds near sunset creating crepuscular rays

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    A longer interval of around ten seconds is used. Clouds in the late afternoon at have enough space between them to allow sunlight through, and the humidity brings out vibrant light rays. The clouds blow quickly on the land, and as the second half of the clip goes, the light rays are observed to rapidly shift with the openings of the cloud positions. These crepuscular rays are not uncommon in partly cloudy, high humidity skies one to three hours before sunset. With days being far longer, the summer has more time and opportunity for these rays to reach through. But clouds are less common in Oregon during the summer, so often fall and spring are fair times as the day progresses, and some clouds are persisting. Far below in the frame of the clip, meadows are shadowed frequently among a forested, hilly landscape, with a lake in the far distance before the coast range of buttes and mountains. Length at 30 fps: 16:15

  • 2 of 3 | Ocean flight at sunset over waves

    Scene notes:

    The UAS floats and moves slowly over the ocean at sunset without focusing on the sun. A light haze tones the highlights to moderated brightness. Not time-lapse. No interval, since the source is video.

    Scene notes:

    … over waves, with takeoff from the ground. As is evident by watching, no interval is used, since the source is video that is full motion.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):

  • Rapid dusk and fast pink windy multilayers

    View with alternate video source

    Scene notes:

    There are vibrant and pink-gold midlevel clouds around 10,000 feet, or 3,000 m. Almost half the upper left frame is occupied by the vaporous clouds at their level where the sun is still shining. At the lower levels two thirds of the way to ground, the sun has already passed behind other clouds. These medium to heavy lower clouds move in from the right against the upper levels which move opposite. The scene darkens as the clip progresses past the halfway point, but small areas of distant sky persist into blue hour.
    Time-lapse length (30 fps):
    13 seconds and 5 frames.
