Google Nexus took an image every 5 seconds and then plays those images at regular film speed (30 FPS or images per second). 30 images = 1 second of video. The recording in the Nexus is actually about 4 mins long. 11 hours of real time image taking.

When using soundtracks, make certain to give credit where due and offer to remove track upon request from owner. Also doesn't hurt to reaffirm that you're not using the video for financial gain.

Great video. My interest is w/ the building itself and New York Life buildings in general, since the company is responsible for constructing architecturally-rich buildings across the world. May I suggest you do something similar w/ our "new" headquarters, at 51Madison, constructed in 1929? It'd certainly be neat to see the gold dome when it's illuminated in the evening...

Very well done! Five seconds was a good choice for time interval and I particularly liked the movement of the building shadows. I also have the SGN and tried a time lapse in my car at 2 second interval but that was too slow resulting in video that was way too fast. I wish there were options for less than 1 second interval for that application.

Nice choice of music also...
