Miniture Views of Keith Loutit

Keith Loutit is known for his Little Sydney series of short films, that present Sydney and its surroundings in miniature form. He basically scaled down, and sped up the film and it challenges people's perceptions of scale, helping them to distance themselves from place they know well. The videos that Keith has produced are one of wonder and and great imagination. I can only imagine how long it took for him to just put on of these masterpieces together. In an interview by "It's Nice That" it states that his work is heavily stylized, his aim is mostly documentary in nature. Keith stated I saw the combination of tilt shift and time-lapse photography as a means of creating a new style of documentary film-making. Keith is currently working on a new project called Small Worlds in which he documents the world's great cities, landscapes and monuments of the ancient world in miniature. Keith states from the interview that in a time of population explosion, impacts to our environment, and concern over limited resources our world feels smaller than ever and I hope that this work inspires people by presenting mankind as a positive collaborative force, and for people to see wonder in the ordinary.
