Timelapse 14-05-2011

Another one from the spare room (dammit I need to get a bit more adventurous with these don't I?)

I loved the way the clouds were forming so got the camera set up and rattled this video off.

Created using a Nikon D300, Nikon 18-200mm AF-S Lens, Nikon MC-36 Remote. I edited the frames using Adobe Photoshop CS5, compiled them into a movie using Apple Quicktime Pro and polished it all up using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.

Music is Wake Up by Coheed & Cambria from the album Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness.

Timelapse 07-11-2010

I decided to do some more time lapse photography last night, and originally intended doing this sequence just to see how the clouds move during the night.

However, when I saw how clear the stars were, I went for it, and left it running from 10pm until 6am.

I'm really happy with how this turned out I'm hopefully going to do a proper shoot next weekend, get out into the countryside where it's nice and dark and get my tent up!

Nikon D300 Time Lapse Experiment

Well the weather outside was horrible today, so I had to come up with something fun that I could do from inside. I decided to have a go at some time-lapse photography and I'm really happy with how it has come out!

This was really just a bit of an experiment so it's not perfect, I was just trying out some different things. What I won't be doing next time though, is rendering it all on my laptop, what a ball-ache! 20 minutes to encode 90 seconds of video from still images? I'll definitely run it from my desktop next time!
