Time Lapse

I ran across mockmoon2000's YouTube channel a couple of weeks ago and started what may turn out to be an obsession with shooting time lapse videos.

Below is my latest attempt, shot with an old video camera hooked up to my neighbour Joe's Mac Mini in webcam mode, using open-source software Gawker to create the movie. I edited it using iMovie '09.



The resolution and image quality was not very good, so now I'm waiting for a timer shutter release trigger to be shipped from Hong Kong, which will allow me to use my Canon SLR to create higher-quality, smoother videos. So hopefully in a few weeks I'll post something really nice.

Enjoy. ;-)
