Images viaWe thought Japan's capital city couldn't get any more fun-sized than in darwinfish105's toy-like, tilt shifted Tiny Tokyo videos, but in Soratama: TOKYO in the Glass Sphere, the supercity gets even smaller. The short film distorts iconic Tokyo locations like Zojoji Temple and Tokyo Station through a snowglobe-like Soratama sphere lens, displaying the wintry comings and goings of Tokyoites in a completely different scale than its tilt-shifted predecessor. Glowing holiday lights and occasional flurries complete the snowglobe illusion phenomenally, resulting in a festive timelapse souvenir ideal for homesick ex-pats or yearning Japanophiles.For more of darwinfish105's work, check out his Vimeo channel.Related:Tokyo Becomes A Toy Town In Tilt-Shifting TimelapseExplore A 'Tiny Tokyo' In This Tilt-Shifted TimelapseHow One Filmmaker Engineered A New Take On The TimelapseWhat's The Difference Between A Timelapse And Hyperlapse?
