This is awesome, not for the technical aspects (although that's well-done), but because I grew up on Eagan Lake. This looks like you stayed at the resort?
I still try to get back there whenever I can... thanks for the memories :)
@soundy106 you grew up on eagan lake? Remember the farm that was owned by the bonaparte river...forgot the family name...we had property by an access road just past the bonaparte camping......oh, what was their name...one was a brother who was slow a bit..oh, wes was his name, and gordon...I think...very nice family
@ellonysman You mean the Clevelands, owned the resort on the west end of the lake? The owner's brother was Weston, he had the house across the road from the resort.
really nice work. was it as time consuming as your description sounds, or was there some way to automate the process? How many frames per still in the first car ride? Was that out of 29fps? I realize that there are dif speeds. Or did that vary alot even in the car? With the remote, are you saying you took chosen stills by remote control for the waking parts, and set to auto when asleep? Are you zooming and panning during edit or with the camera?
with the TC80N3 remote it makes it fairly easy... set the interval (I usually do 10-45 secs), and start going.
it has other features like setting the shutter speed to how ever many seconds (up to pretty much unlimited exposure) which is good for night scenes, and also has a timer setting... so you can have it start how ever many hours/mins later if you want.
and with premiere its fairly straight forward... import the "numbered stills" and it treats it as a movie clip... after that you can adjust the speed of the clip (you don't really have to worry "too" much about frame-rate or anything when your taking the pictures, just enough to have decent movement)
You can also do some post work such as zooming and panning.
Im gonna start using the meade autostar telescope mount for doing "physical" panning... you can check that out if you look up "milapse"
in premiere... you import the first picture of the series... in the import window theres a checkbox called "use numbered stills" and you want to check that, then it will import it into your project as a movie clip. (all the pictures have to be numbered and cant be missing any numbers in the middle)

Just wondering, what software did you use or can you use to create a time lapse?
thanks, paul.

on the camera end i use a "Canon TC80N3 Timer Remote" to take the pictures, then I use adobe premiere to turn the pictures into a movie....
depending on what camera you have you might have to take the pics a different way...
and im sure theres lots of different(cheaper) software out there that can convert multiple pics into a movie

Great timelapse
Just out of interest, what was the process to do this in premier? I use quicktime but it's hopeless and would love to hear how to do it in premier.
Cheers
