A Haunting Short Macro Timelapse That Shows How Different Organisms Respond to a Lack of Water

Motion designer Christian Stangl, who previously worked on a beautiful film made from photos of the Apollo Space Mission, created Dry Out", a haunting short film that shows how various natural organisms respond to a lack of water through timelapse. Stengl documented over 100 different organisms using macro lenses on high-resolution cameras.
