San Francisco filmmaker Brian Emerick created this sweet little film, which relies on a simple premise to communicate its love for New York City: every shot is just one second long, and everything was recorded over a single 12 day visit to NYC.
The resulting collage is a little sentimental, and there are one too many shots of familiar things like Governor’s Ball and the Brooklyn Bridge – but Emerick’s eye for compelling details makes everything shine. I’d like to see what he could do with a whole year.
