Get ready to see something weird. “Tilt shift” is a photographic technique that makes a real-life scene look like a tabletop model. David Godwin’s “Seattle Tilt Shift” is a perfect example—and it holds your attention.
Right at the video’s start, the Seattle Ferry Terminal looks like it’s populated with self-propelled Matchbox cars. You can’t be sure that the boats at 0:19 aren’t in a bathtub…a bathtub that’s equipped with a sturdy dock and walkway and waiting passengers. It all feels like you’re looking at a toy box come to life.
I can’t stop playing this bizarre video over and over.
