How To Shoot Mesmerising Time Lapse Videos
Timelapse videos offer a captivating storytelling
technique. By condensing photo sequences into a
fast playback, they enable us to manipulate time
and delve into the mesmerising realms of natural
processes and movements that often go unnoticed
by the naked eye. They also allow us to elongate
fleeting moments of action, providing a
comprehensive understanding of the scene at
hand. Here at Studio52, weve plenty of work
with timelapse videos behind us and have decided
to share the knowledge! In this comprehensive
guide, we unveil the secrets to capturing
enchanting timelapse footage and share expert
tips for the best results. Join us on this
journey as we unlock the art of creating
hypnotic timelapse videos. What Is a
Timelapse? A timelapse video is a masterpiece
composed of a multitude of carefully captured
images. These individual snapshots, taken over
an extended period, are artfully intertwined to
create an immersive video experience. Through
this captivating art form, time appears to
accelerate, condensing hours or even days of
footage into a mere fraction of time, unveiling
the magic of the world in just a few fleeting
seconds. Prepare to be captivated as we explore
the captivating art of timelapse videos and the
wonders they unveil. Best Practices to Create a
Perfect Timelapse The concept revolves around
capturing numerous photographs at regular
intervals. These individual shots are then
skillfully woven together in the post-production
stage, forming a

  • spellbinding video that captivates the senses.
    With the fundamentals in place, its time to
    delve into the realm of expertise and uncover
    some invaluable tips to embark on your time-
    lapse journey.
  • Use Proper Stabilisation
  • Image stabilisation is undoubtedly beneficial for
    reducing motion and achieving sharper
  • images, particularly when shooting handheld.
    However, its crucial to note that when your
    camera is mounted on a tripod, image
    stabilisation can hinder the quality of your
    timelapse footage. The stabilising mechanism may
    erroneously detect motion and attempt to
    compensate for it, resulting in a messy and shaky
    sequence. To avoid this, choose between using a
    tripod or enabling image stabilisation
    employing both at the same time is not
    advisable.
  • If you opt for a tripod, ensure it is robust and
    sturdy. Taking precautions such as adding weight
    or extending the tripods legs can help minimise
    vibrations and distortion caused by wind. If you
    still encounter shaky footage, utilising
    post-production tools like the Warp Stabiliser
    in software such as Adobe After Effects or Adobe
    Premiere Pro can effectively reduce unwanted
    motion and restore stability to your timelapse.
  • Set the Right Intervals
  • We recommend considering the following values as
    a starting point Its important to note that
    these values are averages and may vary depending
    on the specific scenery or subject
  • People and traffic Aim for 1-2 seconds between
    each frame.
  • Clouds and landscapes Opt for a slightly longer
    interval of 3-6 seconds to capture the subtle
    movements and changes in the scenery.
  • Sunset or sunrise To capture the mesmerising
    light transition during these magical moments,
    increase the interval to approximately 6-10
    seconds.
  • When recording scenes involving people or
    traffic, its crucial to introduce some motion
    blur by adjusting your shutter speed. Try
    setting your shutter speed to roughly half the
    interval time for the smoothest result. This
    technique helps to create a sense of motion and
    fluidity in the final timelapse footage.

ND Filter Is a Must Enhancing the quality of
your timelapse footage can be achieved with an ND
filter, also known as a Neutral Density filter.
This is a dark glass panel placed in front of
your camera lenses. Its primary purpose is to
extend the duration of your cameras shutter
speed, resulting in longer exposures and a
captivating motion blur effect. Even
budget-friendly ND filters can significantly
elevate the overall quality of your timelapse
sequences! The Right Music The impact of music
shouldnt be underestimated. When it comes to
creating mesmerising timelapse videos, music
plays a crucial role in evoking human emotions
and enhancing the overall experience. After
investing time and effort into recording,
editing, and refining your timelapse video,
settling for generic stock music simply wont
suffice! How Does Studio-52 Help? Crafting an
