How did you do the time lapse then in the end it turned to regular video how you do that.? I would like to try that trick out.?

@theslyone - well... I shot the video at 30 fps, then extracted the frames, then selected every 10th frame, stitched it back together and then adjusted the timing in post (which gave it that wierd "fast-forward" effect a bit). I then matched the frame at the end with a clip from the end of the video.

@mtharmon20 Ah ok havnt tried that yet, what software you used to extract the frames.? Can you use imovie .?

@theslyone Don't know about imovie - my system has an export to JPG option. From there, it's VERY tedious, but I like the effect. I had originally set out to just do a video... then decided to do a time-lapse after the fact. If I had used the GoPro to do timed shots instead of normal video, the time-lapse would have been much easier, but I wouldn't have been able to get the effect at the end. It's a tradeoff, I guess.

@mtharmon20 Thank you, after searching around the wed i found that iMovie can extract still images from a video.. Will test it out in a few days.. Thank you for giving me a new way to time lapse..
