FAQ

What is a timelapse ?

It is a short storytell movie that shows, in accelerated images, the construction or demolition of a building, the melting of a glacier, the growth of a plant, the flow of people in a public place, the variations of a landscape over a long period, the density of car traffic, the installation of structures in events, the manufacture of industrial products

How does it work ?

Time lapsing is a remarkable technique that allows you to creatively capture the passage of time with your digital camera. By periodically taking a series of photos over a span of time, these photos can then be stitched together into a video that speeds up time in ways no other medium can. For example, an image of a scene may be captured once every second, then played back at 30 frames per second; the result is an apparent 30 times speed increase.
