A MUST read post (Modem Burner)

This is from another site and I will post part of his message. There are not links to other forums, only an amazing video. I think this is why we buy mechanical watches. =) maverick

Greetings Friends,

I shot a short movie on 16mm which I hope you'll enjoy, and pass along to anyone you like. It features my vintage watch collection, including timelapse and hyper-macro imagery of movements.
I'm a cinematographer and watch nut based in California. Naturally, I would love to discover future opportunities to make uniquely beautiful movies of all sorts, from watch marketing to feature films.

Cheers,
Morgan Schmidt

You are probably right. But I think that video is amazing. I wonder how long it took to do. =) maverick

I think you need Quicktime installed. Also, it takes a while to load, large file. =) maverick
