Shot in the restricted runway area of Singapore Changi Airport.

Ever wondered what it's like in one of the busiest airports in the world? With a flight landing and taking off almost every minute during peak hours, it can get pretty insane. 

Shoot a timelapse of that, and you get transported to a sci-fi world with shooting stars breaking into the atmosphere.

This was shot mostly in the restricted runway area of Singapore's Changi Airport and the surrounding public areas for some scenes. I was so close to the planes that my cameras literally got shaken by the rumbles from the jet engines - Which actually produced a pretty neat effect. (See 2:13)

The guys from Changi Airport reached out to me to shoot in the restricted runway area of Changi Airport after they saw my first film from The Air Traffic series which was shot at Changi Beach. It was a thrilling experience as you don't usually get to enter the restricted runway area, let alone shoot in it.

Even after doing this the second time, I'm still amazed at the results of timelapsing airplanes flying at night.

Airplanes Look Like Epic Shooting Stars in The Air Traffic 2!

El fotógrafo [Milton Tan](http://miltontan.com/photography/) ha lanzado una cautivadora secuela para _[The Air Traffic](https://vimeo.com/55347966),_ sus experimentos de timelapse aeronáutico que fueron transmitidos en el Discovery Channel el año pasado. _[The Air Traffic 2](https://vimeo.com/102908493)_ retoma la misma estética de arte con luces que hizo a _The Air Traffic_ tan popular, solo que esta vez, Tan filmó "tan cerca de los aviones que \[sus\] cámaras literalmente se agitaban con el rugir de los motores de los motores jet", explica en su descripción en [Vimeo](http://vimeo.com/102908493).

Tan explicó via mail que tomó el material en el área restringida de la pista de aterrizaje del aeropuerto Changi de Singapur, logrando imágenes de aviones que lucen como enormes estrellas fugaces. Para la gente acostumbrada a quedarse atorada en el tráfico aéreo, el corto de Tan es un refrescante acercamiento a la belleza oculta en aeropuertos.
