Hyperlapse San Diego #2
From my collection of Hyperlapse videos
______________________________________________________________
First post went out without much about what and why I did these.
I got into doing timelapse from watching hours of other timelapse videos on youtube accompanied with music. The effects of a timelapse has always intrigued me with many motions, depths and slow moving things moving faster with detail to things you don't normally see everyday. Then I saw a series of hyperlapse videos which brought much more richness and depth to a typical timelapse. So you might be asking whats the difference and the difference is simple but complex to execute. (at least manually anyways) The camera moves a certain amount for each and every shot and then compiled together and stabilized into a video. So it would work out like this 5 seconds would be 120 shots at 24 frames per second. That 120 is then divided over a desired distance with a focus point in the distance. For every shot the camera needs to be re-centered on that focus point to create that very slight pivot movement in the scene. This technique of doing timelapses offers so many unique creative perspectives of things no one has ever seen before of the very things everyone is already looking at.
( @ _@) yahuh?!
The very hyperlapse videos that inspired me are the most common ones found when searching hyperlapse into youtube such as Hyperlapse Italy. These videos alone blew my mind and I had to replicate it. I don't really even know why I just had to make them by any means necessary, even if it meant crawling 1 inch for 1000 shots I was going to make it happen.

This is a typical timelapse, camera doesn't move but still looks nice and its my favorite beach in San Diego.

wow, i'm hoping to be able to achieve a fraction of this someday. i just started with timelapses--also used to like watching the youtube "timelapse music videos".
so without equipment, you literally just move the camera manually every shot?? 0_0 your videos look sooo precise it's hard to imagine. also, just curious, what camera are you using?
looking forward to seeing more of your stuff :) upped & follwed
Thank you! Yes I take a step for every shot. I learned from others on youtube along with my own trial and error finding efficient ways of doing it manually. Its really not all that difficult, just takes a little patience.
I use a Canon T5 Rebel and a monopod, every shot is re-aligned with the grid on my screen, placing the focus point in the same spot. Then I use Lightroom for batch editing and After Effects to stabilize everything. Doing it this way I can get a 4-7 second clip done in about 30-50min minus the post editing.
