And if the city of Paris was deserted by its inhabitants?

Imagine a Paris desert, imagine the Parisians decided to take to their heels at the same time. This is exactly the Hypocentre developed by the project concept.
Conceived by a duo Claire and Maxime (we do not really know more about them), the Hypocentre project takes the form of a truly mind-blowing video, loosely based on an earlier project, the "Running on Empty" Ross Ching, who proposed to admire the city of Los Angeles without any human presence around.
For the curious, here is the main technique used to make this video:
"To clear human activity, no need neutral density filters and long exposures.Neither film the morning fresh at 6:00 am. Not. You just have to have a good tripod and a video camera, and shoot in a static scene for about 3 to 5 minutes (depending on the density of the crowd / vehicles).
As a film consists of images (typically 25 frames / second with our PAL format), it then simply export your 5 minutes of movie 7500 photos (300 seconds (5 minutes) * 25 frames = 7500 photos) with your software mounting video(personal, we use the version of Sony Vegas Pro 10). You therefore agree that on 7500 photos, there will be a well where pieces of road, street will be naked? Yes?Then with a photo editing tool, it will replace one by one the areas with a person, a vehicle ... "
