Time-lapse Ahern Mandala Second Life

Second in a set of experimental videos that chronicles my learning process as I teach myself proper time-lapse technique. The first video can be seen here:

~1.5 hours of activity distilled down into ~10 minutes of video. ~260FPS. Viewer 2, global illumination enabled. Fixed perspective (bird's eye view).

For those who don't know, the Ahern "welcome area" is one of the most high-traffic areas in Second Life. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Ahern/1/1/1/

Notes:

This time I managed to get the timing perfect, utilizing the effective limit of ~11 minutes defined by youtube, without sacrificing a single frame.

Added a second more accurate time counter to the scene for those who wish to observe the progression of seconds at ~9X speed.

Maximized viewing angle for greater inclusion of activity. You may notice the slight "fisheye" effect the farther away you get from the center of the frame.
