Simon Smith’s stunning London

Director and filmmaker Simon Smith has just given us one of the most stunning short films of the year—collaborating across nine decades to create Wonderful London in 1924 & 2014 (link).

Here are Smith’s own words on how he captured this juxtaposition that’s outside of time, in a timeless city:

“In 1924, Harry B. Parkinson and Frank Miller documented London in a fantastic series of short films, known as “Wonderful London”. Over the last few months, I have stood in their foot-steps, recapturing their shots exactly, and have blended the two together creating a window through time.”
