Wow!

The first one shows me that it is really dreary there! There was one time there when the sun really came out!

The second is amazing. It looks like the clouds just form from thin air. I'm sure they do I guess, but I never really thought about it.

Good stuff Ant!

The sun? What's that?

:) Isn't he the male type person your wife gives you?

Wife? What is that?

Dreary? That was a decent day.

Here's a day-light drive. It seems a frame every 2 seconds is reasonable in the motorway.

I did these a couple of weeks ago, using Android ICS / Cyanogenmod stock camera with 1fps timelapse. Need a longer distance to drive to make these better.

A few decent roads though!

 

I want to do something when I go on a roadtrip to Liege, Hockenheim, Amsterdam, Brugge and Lille this summer.

 

Just need to find a suitable in car charger/power supply and do some maths to make sure my 16GB card is big enough.

 

1fps looks good, but I fear it'd give me too many photos and be too long for a really long trip. Though I have been using a lower resolution (but bigger than 1920x1080 to allow for enough cropping)

I was gonna say, you don't need much resolution for video - I think a 4GB card holds like 4000 frames at just-over-full-HD res.

Android ICS / Cyanogenmod (I have no idea if it's a stock feature) records directly to MP4, so no manual stitching of JPEG images here :Y

1fps at 1080p (actually seems to be 1920x1088 which is a quirk of HTC camera apparently) created a 77MB video file, which I thought was rather good.

I'm off to Northampton on Saturday which should take me about an hour from here. That should create a ~300MB MP4 by my calculation.

The top one I did last week, the botom one quite a while back.

8 Miles in 4 Minutes took longer than 4 minutes. Should I feel gypped, or thrilled that I got more than I bargained for?

And was that really timelapse or sped-up video? Only there were times where movement was jittery, which I wouldn't expect from timelapse.

I mentioned in my first post that they are video speeded (sped?) up. There is some realy good stuff in this thread now. I love it.

So you did, but that was a month and a half ago and my memory isn't that good.

Who would like to watch a timelapse of a european roadtrip (eurotrip :@ ) once I've put it all together?

 

Over 61000 photos. One every 2 seconds. Probably over 40mins long :|

Me. But make it shorter/faster.

Yeah, it's definitely too long, but not sure how to do it otherwise. 2 photos a second is essential. I could maybe double it to 48fps, but it could end up far too fast.

Do a few samples and see what looks good. Otherwise, slit it into multiple videos.between certain landmarks or whatever.

I've already generated each section as separate videos (actually watching them now on my TV). I was going to split them if my YouTube limit was 15mins but I can upload unlimited length.

 

I'm tempted to put up a Part1,2,3 etc version up and the full length.

 

Needs a backing track of some sort too. And all editing together with some text and other shiz.

Did something interesting happen for every bit of the 33 hours you were recording for?

Or is this video going to contain 39 minutes of road?

It'd be pointless if I just faded it in and out of slightly interesting bits.

 

The fact is it's a fucking massive timelapse and unless I show it all it's a waste.

 

(and yes, pretty much all road)
