when I originally posted this video it was called September Sky, however I was not satisfied with the original edit.

Shorter, and with added sequences, Sky Lapse is a fair well to summer and a transition into autumn skies - relax, chill out and I hope you enjoy...

be well ;-)

Comments and critique are very much welcomed :)

    Nice stuff!

    Q: With the focal plane shutter iyou have a real risk of burning holes in it - just wondering what precautions you are taking?

    I always like the use of the silouette to anchor the motion of clouds, its a good technique that prevents that "conveyor sickness" effect of moving clouds. The power lines did a good job of that.

    Also there wa one shot that looked like a motion control panning rig... was that digital panning done in post or the real thing?
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks!

    apart from a fire extinguisher, a narrow iris & fast shutter - none at all ;-)

    Panning as always is done with the real thing!

    was it motion control? or did you just slowly pan while doing ur timlapse?
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    motion controlled ;-)

    Hey, nice stuff again!

    What are your settings when you render?
    I use Quicktime h.264 or whatever that number was. But as you can see, when full screen, I get horizontal stripes.... WEIRD!
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks,

    Adobe's media encoder h.264, 24fps, 6,000 kb/s & 44KHz audio - no horizontal stripes with this setting - oh and make sure your video is set to Progressive Scan and Not Interlaced ;-)
  • Christian Wiedel 1 year ago
    Hi! Very nice piece!
    I'd like to hear more about your export settings. What kind of file do you put in the Media Encoder? Is it a lossless .avi or?
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    Hi Christian,

    I export directly from Premiere using the settings stated above. I use lossless as the time line preference, but that's so that I can get an idea of how the final video will look like ;-)

    Glad you like it :)

    Amazing things clouds. It takes a time-lapse to show us the beauty that exists in their evolution and devolution, and your time-lapse photography does this in grand style.

    Thanks B.
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks Keen,

    it's amazing what beauty there is to see when you take the time out to see it - time lapse enhances that experience sometimes :)

    How did you keep he camera moving at 0:40 to 1:13?
    Great job! :)
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks Max :)

    I used a modified motorised telescope head, it has stepper motors that make very small revolutions - ideal for time lapse photography...

    hi! great video!!! can you please tell me more about the "modified motorised telescope head"..?? is it expensive? thanks!
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks, you can see an example of a motorised telescope head here: vimeo.com/groups/TLSM4Beginners/videos/920465

    My set-up can be seen in this video: vimeo.com/994562

    The cost isn't expensive, I bought my rig from ebay for around £60.00 (GBP) and it included a telescope ;-)
  •  
  • donjuandinero 1 year ago
    just 90€ and you also go t a telescope!!! can you tell me the model of this telescope head? you can set it up to go so slow or you had to modify something? Excuse me if I ask you many things but I'm really interested and when I go to a shop they always say "we have this unexpensive motorized head from Manfrotto... JUST 495€"!!!! damn!! 100€ more than my camera!!!
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    I use a NexStar telescope mount - it's the same head no matter which scope you buy, so I chose the cheapest scope and threw it in the bin when I got it :)

    Search on-line for a bargain.

    Wow, can't believe I missed this one from before - some really excellent shots in this video! My favorite is the sunset shot with the power lines - the silhouette of the trees with the yellow/orange sky behind them is incredible!
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks, that shot took three days to get just right! The first day, just as the sun was starting to go down it started to rain so I had to pack up. The second day, the battery died and I forgot to pack the spare, doohhh!!! So it was third time lucky for that one :)
  • Carrotkid 1 year ago
    Yeah, know what you mean - one time I went out to film a time-lapse shot and forgot to bring an SD card to record the images with, lol.
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    lol - these things happen :D

  • Nick Zuccarello 1 year ago
    Very nice work. Beautiful and scary all at the same time!
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks Nick, hope it wasn't too scary?

    thanks for viewing :)
  •  
  • Nick Zuccarello 1 year ago
    Your videos show just how much of an effect man is having on the skies. Is it good, is it bad? Who knows. I do know that I hate it when the weather calls for clear skies, then by the afternoon I have nasty overcast due to the very activity that you filmed. At least the video's look nice! :) Great work on the film, er... pixels?
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    yeah, I hear you :(

    most of the scenes shown in this video are by products from living under a heavily populated flight path. They are a result of the jets passing over head and their trails having a slow dispersal rate. Still, we try to make the most of the British weather, and venture even further to seek the sun when the weather is poor - we only have ourselves to blame I suppose...

    btw, no pixels were harmed during the making of this video - don't have nightmares ;-)

    Great timelapse sequences. I so want to be abel to do paning timelapses to.
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 1 year ago
    thanks :)

    To do panning time lapses, all you need is a motorised telescope mount. Modification to fit a camera is pretty easy too. Search the internet for some bargains ;-)

    Absolutely breathtaking!
  •  
  • Paul Davis plus 11 months ago
    Oh yeh 1:53 is truly awe-inspiring.
  • ße ωell ;-) plus 11 months ago
    thanks Paul :)

    all of the 'red' scenes in this was achieved by having the camera in full manual control and cranking the white balance up to the max - this makes things more red/orangey in low light conditions.

    Glad you liked it, hope to see more time lapses from yourself soon ;-)
  • Paul Davis plus 11 months ago
    I'm glad you told me that. I just got my hv30. I'll play around with the white balance in the late afternoons or early mornings!
