Balloon Mapping

2012
London College of Communication
MA Graphic Design


Undertaken as the culmination of the Graphic Design Masters. The final result is a single video showing the same location at 6-hour intervals throughout a single day. The video is taken using a camera suspended from a helium balloon, each frame extracted and then corrected to produce the static position film.
