Running on Empty - The Streets and Freeways of LA, Vacant

submitted by lucky760

1 decade 4 years 5 months 3 weeks ago

*Music: No Surprises by Radiohead

Via Neatorama:
Ross Ching’s video, “Running on Empty” is a time lapse vision of an LA without cars. Ross was inspired by Matt Logues’s E M P T Y L.A., a photography exhibition that showcases eerily abandoned streets in the city of angels. You can read about Ross’s work in his own words, here:

Spectacular time lapse pieces have sprung up all over the internet. I have even developed some awesome relationships with some of the creators. However, the majority of them seem very similar — like they should be on the Discovery Channel or in a visitor center. There needs to be originality. There needs to be pioneers. There needs to be something more than beautiful shots. There needs to be a human element. There needs to be a story.
