Denver Skyline at City Park Motion Graphic Video

This video animation of Sunrise over the Denver City Skyline was created using special software. This motion graphic software utilizes a still photograph and creates animated vectors within the image file. The resulting video file is called a Plotagraph. This is similar to a Cinemagraph but uses one still image vs. using native video footage to create the final result.

More details for our pre-dawn photos of Denver. The photo to the right was taken toward the end of our session just as the purple magenta light of sunrise illuminated the morning clouds to the south. These photos were all taken on the Really Right Stuff TVC 34L tripod. The D850 exposures for the images averaged between 1.6 seconds to 1/5 of a second at f/8 and f/11. The D850’s native ISO of 64 was used. Adobe Lightroom Classic CC is our Digital Asset Management and development software of choice. Most of these images are single exposures in the RAW format while two of them are blends of 3-5 photos to create a DNG HDR file. Some of them were finished using Luminar’s AI module to add a little extra pop.
