My Japanese is not good enough to read what it is, but luckily, the picture is clear enough. Someone took an egg timer, hacked out a chuck of it on top, stuck some foam in there and then slipped his iPhone into the foam. Then, he hits record on his video recording app (or activates his stop-motion photography app) and sets the egg timer for as long as he wants. From there, the top of the egg timer slowly rotates the iPhone, changing its field of view as it goes creating a very stable “motion control” style effect.
I sooooo want to do this!! What a brilliantly simple idea!
Go here or click the pic above for more pics and to see how it was done.
I must learn the Japanese word for jealous…
