To do some testing for the
time lapse we will use in our trailer I went to London and did a couple of test
time lapses to find the most effective ways of doing them, how often to take
the picture and how long to take pictures for.
For the first time lapse I took a still picture every
30 seconds for 40 minutes. This then created a 4 second time lapse when put
together. I took an image every 30 seconds, as there was nothing quickly moving
that would be affected by long gaps between pictures. And it would create more
movement between pictures to create a more dynamic time lapse with more
movement happening.
For the second one I took a photo every 5-second for
10 minutes. This also created a 4 second time lapse when put together. I left
such a short time between the photos, as I wanted to be able to follow the pods
moving individually in the frame.
The time lapse we do for a trailer will be looking out
over the river, and will have moving people and boats. There for we will have
to take relatively frequent photos to follow the movement of objects. it is
important to keep the time gap between photos the same for the whole time lapse
as the clouds will move through the sky and will not flow if the gaps are
different.
To do this we could use an intervalometer,
which will automatically take a photo when plugged into the camera to how often
you program it too.
