A time-lapse video currently being shared around social media was four years in the making, and it lasts about four minutes.
The video is comprised of sped-up footage of the Fargo-Moorhead area. It shows everything from live concerts to downtown nightlife to people feeding ducks at the park.
Filmmakers Evan Balko and Preston Sternson gathered the shots over the past four years, with the support of the Arts Partnership, a local organization that helps sustain art in the community, and the many venues that allowed them access to gather footage.
In a Facebook post, Balko said he was inspired by a time-lapse video of New York City that made him wonder why there was nothing similar out there for Fargo.
"After 20,000 stills and hundreds of hours of work, here we are," he wrote.
