Inspiration: Take a Stunning 4K Time-Lapse Trip Across the US in Five Minutes

Last month we featured A Day In the Life of Roadtrippers time-lapse photographer Joel Schat — a wonderful, jealousy-inducing BTS look at Schat’s travels. And today we have for you the product of those many days spent traveling across the country, cameras in tow. No surprise: it’s a beauty.

Produced in 4K, this demo-reel of Schat’s footage is full of variety, spot-on composition and many more things we could praise him for. National parks seem to be the main location for many of these sunsets, night skies, and fog rolling over the mountain scenes, which together create an impressive montage of the scenery the United States has to offer.

It comes in at five minutes and is definitely worth adding to your queue if you like a bit of wanderlust with your ham and cheese sandwich at lunch. And if you want a glimpse at how Schat creates masterful time-lapses like this, check out our earlier coverage here.
