Spent the last couple weeks shooting this timelapse all on Epic with the Ti Canon mount using the Kessler Shuttle Pod and Cineslider for the motion control shots. For the pan and tilt shots I was using the Dynamic Perception MX2 controller and a motorized telescope head. In reality the Epic was a little too heavy for the pan/tilt head. But as long as it was setup a certain way it would work out okay. Here's a list of lenses I used to make the timelapse.

Canon 14mm 2.8L
Canon 16-35mm 2.8L II
Canon 24mm 1.4L II
Canon 70-200mm 2.8L II
Canon 800mm 5.6L
Canon 2x TC III

Looks absolutely fabulous! I have been trying to decide which camera to invest in for time lapse, but after seeing your footage I may just try to use my Scarlett when it arrives. Your footage has a more 3-D quality to it than the DSLR footage I have seen.

Great images. My college teacher showed me your work years ago. Any problems with the cops when using the shuttle pod?

Cops drove by me plenty of times with the 12' track setup and they never said anything. I was also in the middle of the road for some of the shots. But they still didn't care. As long as you aren't on private property you are usually alright.
 
Nice to finally see what you've been putting together Andrew! The moon shots are very nice!
 
So Awesome! Loved it.
 
Awesome work Andrew! I loved it, best wishes for your continued success!
 
Wow, love it, an in love with this "megatech" slider.

Great work.
 
Great work Drew!

There are some amazing shots of sun, moon or LA night panorama that have a Hollywood sort of value.

"Megatech"? Its a Kessler Shuttle Pod and Cineslider that I used to makes this. Worked great with Epic.

Yeah that first shot was in real-time but it almost looks like its in slow-mo because of the heat waves. Glad you liked the shots.
