Detroit Eye Candy: A Beautiful Timelapse Video Of Detroit Shot Over Two Years

Show notes

Detroit’s beautiful from the top of the Penobscot Building in downtown Detroit.

That, and many other Detroit scenes including Belle Isle, are in this three minute video called “Rebirth” by YouTube user Mike Tokarz.

According to his description:

“I’m here to show you that Detroit is not a city of crime and ruins, but a diverse city of life, new ideas, and an abundant variety of scenery.

Shooting for this video took place over the course of around 2 years, with countless hours processing. The final product is made up of roughly 5,000 individual photographs, cut down from over 25,000 frames captured over the last two years.”

If you can’t get enough Detroit Timelapse videos, especially ones focused on hope, try this one from awhile back.
