Ultrawide HDR Timelapse

[dannyday58218195]

hmm im not entirley convinced... at 0:55 - if this was a true HDR shot then theres no reason why you couldnt have the sunset exposed perfectly AND the backgound of the houses illuminated where we can see windows door etc... on this video i see a nice big black empty sillouette... HDR doesnt do that... it does the fuckin opposite!!!

[sssub27]

How is the HDR part accomplished...you had to process several images for every one final image? What HDR program did you use...this must have taken a long time to do the HDR part, no?

Who could dislike this? This was amazing, so well done, the music adds such great feeling, like i'm watching something about the planet on the Discovery channel.

Impressive my friend!

Just curious if you used flexifly to "stitch" your panoramic images together during the scene where you were panning out the window and did you have problems with the nodal point of the lens to minimize parallax? Any recommendation there?

Also, I was told that 50 mm lenses are about the minimum for shooting. Going to a wider angle lens causes problems of some sort. Any feedback on lens selection?

Thanks in advance,

VERY, VERY cool!

[cj691]

Awesome!  One suggestion, loose the matte (black space) around the video... =)

[dnwndls]

What does hdr stand for

[scrapplecheesesteak]

@dnwndls HDR = High dynamic range

[bennicoke]

Beautiful!

[jcmegabyte]

Great shots! Some of those ultra-wide angle cloud sequences look like tornadoes :-)

[IntensePizza]

Holy shit!!!! That was amazing. Specifically the part between 1:35-1:55 and how it paned so perfectly. Was that just a sunrise where you paned a little for each shot??? I'm very impressed! 5*

[milapse]

Thanks! it's actually a sunset ;-) yes the panning head is moving very slow through about an hour period there.

[IntensePizza]

Are you using lots of still images? Or a camcorder? Bc i want to try making one for school.

[Harrisabd]

@milapse that is amazing

i never realised thats how you so it

[shahjinan]

Nice work Jay!!

[nameofthepen]

Really pleasing! I'm a sucker for both time-lapse and slo-mo.

We can get a better show from any YT vid which doesn't automatically offer HQ by adding to the URL:

&fmt=18

then re-launching the vid. Yours is gorgeous. :-)

[Getawaymoments]

nice!

[intryegle]

this is great

[cuprum166]

Outstanding!

[poopgot]

You're an inspiration. You have opened my eyes to a new type of photography in which I am eager to try. Thank you for presenting this. You're work is amazing. This is my favorite vid of yours so far.

[marcGoddard01]

Really nice. You should do something slightly longer for a complete "short movie". I really like the pans!

[thefuxylady]

hey im doing some time lapse but don´t know how to hdr it .

Is there an option to render all frames and not doing by one by one???

[STAnger1969]

Rare beauty.

Thank you very much.

[budwizer]

could u edit these with somthing like windows movie maker?

[milapse]

take a look at VirtualDub.. free and very powerful. You could do it with that.

[FinnsDesign]

Do you know of some simple program that lets you convert a series of jpg's into a MP4/H264 movie?

Since starting with timelapse stuff I have yet to find a good solution.

[turtleman220]

@budwizer lol....windows movie maker!  what a joke :p

[OasisDirective]

I love to see the work of another time lapse videographer keep up the good work. The HDR stuff is impressive!

[oasis110482]

Beautiful work. I'm just learning time lapse photography and your guides have definitely helped. Keep up the great work.

[JuanFalque]

Great job, astonishing.

Could you tell us how did you do that soft movement? Thanks.

[milapse]

Thanks! I used a custom ramp script sent to the 'milapse panning head'

[destinws2]

You sir, are a ninja.

[tommyk77]

Loved the shot at 1:14. The clouds looked like flowers opening like you intro.

Great music too!

[ch1c0h]

excellent video as usual. HD Version FTW!

[marcusreedus]

absolutely mesmerizing! i agree with los - the sunroom was just gorgeous. beautiful work here!

[SteveGarner1]

Stunning!  Timelapse doesn't get better than this!

What equipment do you use?

[milapse]

Thanks! These were d70, and some d200. Mostly Sigma 4.5mm and one Sigma 10-20

Oh wow, that sunroom lapse was beautiful man. Absolutely majestic.

[MDP91]

[milapse]

Thanks! I hope you checked out the HD version on vimeo... so much better!

[tjn0110]

I really like the interior part, ~1:37. Such detail & tones could only be achieved with HDR. Excellent work.

[milapse]

Thanks! I really like how that shot came out as well.

I hope you checked out the HD version on vimeo... so much better!

[rydaly]

Nice work once again Mr. Milapse

[milapse]

Thanks! I hope you checked out the HD version on vimeo... so much better!

[MentalLapse]

The HDR gives the those sequences an almost surreal feel. Wonderful job :)

[milapse]

Thanks! I tried to keep it as 'natural' as possible but it's tough! I hope you checked out the HD version on vimeo... so much better!

[MentalLapse]

I did go to vimeo and, no kidding, the visual quality was outstanding. I wish YT could manage that kind of resolution :)

[f3xpgm]

Beautiful video! :)

[milapse]

Thanks! I hope you checked out the HD version on vimeo... so much better!

[COroom156]

By the way, that is one cool lens you've got there :-D
