An Introduction to Time-Lapse Photography

Apart from the stunning movies in that page, the techniques are worthy of trying out. I think Paul (zolo) has done some animation in the past, but I really want to have a go at a time-lapse shoot.

If only I had the time!

I have indeed.

Here is what happens when I go for a walk and take a picture every 5 steps or so:

And this is what happened when I stuck a camera out of my window, took pictures every few minutes for 24 hours.

(the camera was crappy for this one, BTW).

I seem to recall you did some stop-frame animation, too. Do you have those online anywhere?

Oh - yes. Hang on.

I’ll post the YouTube version for all to see:

Same movie on my old .Mac web space.

The Stikfas people liked it.

I also wrote a tutorial for MacUser many years ago (2001 IIRC) on how to do stop frame animation with a digital camera, a Mac and iMovie. Since then, a lot of stop-frame animation software has appeared, which made it pretty much obsolete.
