Well, he didn’t actually walk all the way across America, but in his time lapse movie he does. Check out this great stop motion movie created by Peter Cote. There’s over 2,700 individual shots all taken on a Canon 5D Mark II and a 24-70 f/2.8 lens then edited down into a time lapse creation. Apparently there’s a little corporate influence behind the video, because Peter and his company pitched the concept to Levis Jeans, and they sponsored the production. Take a look at the video after the jump along with a behind the scenes one if you’re interested!

    A walk across America would start in Maine. Not New York City. :-)

      I think the point was to start at a famous bridge and end at a famous bridge…thus ‘bridging’ the gap from East to West, metaphorically and literally speaking?!?

        I think the oeverall point was to get funding for his project. Regardless, America doesnt begin in New York City.

    @ Yardee har

    “yeah, cool idea except for the fact that it makes one queasy from motion sickness.”

    What?

    ‘One’ is a term used to identify an unspecified individual, so seeing as you are the person the video is making queasy, just say “it makes ‘me’ feel queasy.”

    So stop trying to sound intelligent if you’re going to fail miserably and not know the meaning of a three letter word.

    Hey just wanted to make a quick correction. I shot, edited, and produced “Guy Walks Across America” and the last name is spelled wrong in the article. It is spelled Peter Cote. Thanks so much for highlighting the video!
