Roller Coasters And Theme Park Rides Magically Appear In The New York City Skyline

Fernando Livschitz’s New York Park brings Coney Island to Manhattan.

NEW YORK PARK from Black Sheep Films on Vimeo.

Black Sheep Films is at it again. After turning Buenos Aires into an Inception-style amusement park, they’ve set their sights on New York, turning the top of the Chrysler Building into a swing ride, while Times Square gets its own fairground attractions that mysteriously hang in midair, defying all known laws of physics.

But director Fernando Livschitz isn’t going to let a small thing like reality get in the way of his New York theme park, which transposes the thrills of the fairground to the Big Apple in a melding of the city with Coney Island’s Luna Park.

This manic tour of New York is given an added fun factor by Livschitz’s stylistic nods to time-lapse and tilt-shift techniques, making the viewing experience akin to being on one of those rides.
