If you only watch one video on the internet today, then I suggest you watch this one called Paris in Motion (Part 2). It was created by Paris-based photographer [Mayeul Akpovi](http://mayeul.com) and it’s a beautiful time-lapse rendition of the City of Light. If you can’t see the video below, [click here](http://vimeo.com/50467187). Make sure you fullscreen it and turn your speakers on.

The video really does a great job of capturing the energy of the city. I think cities should consider commissioning videos like this in order to market themselves. If you enjoyed it, I recommend also checking out [Part 4 of Paris in Motion](http://vimeo.com/92182340).

Thanks to [the Urbanophile](http://www.urbanophile.com/2014/04/23/paris-in-motion-part-four/) for sharing this video series. That’s how I found out about it.
