Old Dead Eye is a filmmaker from Birmingham who’s been out and about with his Sony EX1, playing with ultra-slow and stop motion to make some really lovely work.
The first one is from Chinese New Year and was filmed around Hurst Street and the Arcadian Centre:

There’s also this one from last year’s Christmas Frankfurt Market which is probably the best advert for the next one (opening again 12 November) that you’re likely to see:

You’ll need to follow the links to get the best from these videos – HD is disabled on embedding – but I heartily recommend you do.
Old Dead Eye is Paul Demontez. Other than that I’ve no info but I’d be interested to know more.
Big thanks to Hank Kingsley who posted a link to the first vid on the FB spam board.
Wow this is gorgeous! Marketing Birmingham should be all of this! This guy is brilliant!
Thank you for the post Chris, keep up the good work!
Absolutely mesmerising. Agree with you Sister 45 – Paul would be playing up front in my Fantasy Creative Birmingham XI…
