The pilot lands smoothly on runway 14. Welcome to Zurich. Fasten your seatbelt for a three minute long, fantastic roller-coaster ride like visit to Switzerland’s biggest city. Surprising hyperlapse images feature the view from a SWISS-Airbus cockpit or a train-ride. Part of the visual highlights are a quick jump inside the opera or a turbulent sea of fog around the prime tower. To lift the point of view high above the city, a customized drone has been used. For this project, a total amount of 90'000 images were shot. Visit helvetiabynight.com to check out 12 interactive 360° aerial panoramic images of Zurich.

This co-production of Swiss photographers Alessandro Della Bella and Christian Mülhauser has been kindly supported in storytelling and post-production by Milan Rohrer, Sales Wick and Florian Trojer of SkyProduction. The terrific sound has been composed by Michael Gertschen – he used more than 150 soundtracks.

Sehr schön gemacht und Kompliment an dich und alle Beteiligten. Das war bestimmt ein riesen Aufwand, welcher sich aber enorm gelohnt hat.

Liebe Grüsse aus "Züri West" :-)
