Time Lapse Photography

From wikipedia: “Time-lapse photography is a technique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured (the frame rate) is much lower than that used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing. For example, an image of a scene may be captured once every second, then played back at 30 frames per second. The result is an apparent 30-times speed increase. Time-lapse photography can be considered the opposite of high speed photography or slow motion.

Processes that would normally appear subtle to the human eye, e.g. the motion of the sun and stars in the sky, become very pronounced. Time-lapse is the extreme version of the cinematography technique of undercranking, and can be confused with stop motion animation.”

So to create a time lapse video it requires hundreds or thousands of pictures stitched together to form one video. Time Lapse videos are great for construction projects, restaurants displaying the hustle and bustle of the dining room, and more. Time lapse videos can be used for both interior and exterior scenery as well as night or day.

You may have seen the intro to House of Cards, which has a time lapse introduction. Moreover, The Ultimate Fighter tv show uses both time lapse photography as well as motion time lapses and hyperlapse photography.
