chuckdee Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I want to do it from a hotel room and was wondering, in your opinion, which hotel offers the best view of the city? Thanks,Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arche_757 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hotel Zaza or Hilton Americas? I think those offer the most open space around them to view a majority of the skyline? Maybe a parking garage roof would work better? You may wish to explain in a little more detail what it is you are trying to do. Good luck.

chuckdee Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) I'm going to do about a 15 hour time lapse photo shoot of the city, major buildings etc. for a Houston client. I want it to be the best representive of Houston. Traffic movement, etc is good. I'll be firing once every 15-20 seconds, with remote of course. Outside is out of the question because of the elements. Cost for Hotel room with best view is not a problem.

brian0123 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 If I were you, I'd find some condos for sale and approach the Realtor/owner to see if you can pay to hang out. Heck, it may even help sell the place "Oh, never mind that photographer over there, he's just filming from here today since it has the most incredible view of the city." An example would be the condos in Midtown @ 2016 Main. I've seen views from both sides and they are awesome of either Downtown (w/ traffic along Pierce elevated below), and towards Med Center to Galleria on the other. They also have covered balconies so you could get a shot outside w/out having to worry too much about the elements. For example, this unit to the Galleria (third picture): http://search.har.com/engine/2016-Main-Street-Houston-TX-77002_HAR86156440.htm Downtown example would be something like this unit: http://search.har.com/engine/2016-Main-Houston-TX-77002_HAR64488417.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
