Time-Lapsed Travels

Eric Testroete Takes a 7-Minute Trip to Japan

Eric Testroete took a trip to Japan and was then faced with the issue of what to do with all the pictures he took. He decided to opt for a 7-minute stop-motion video documenting his trip.

The 7-minute video by Eric Testroete is a cool time-lapse video that lets viewers feel like they were there, highlighting fun moments like watching break-dancers on the street instead of nature. While I still want to take a trip to Japan, this makes me feel like I’m there now.
