Heyyy!!!

I saw that white angel statue lady at 1:40 when I was at Toronto for Nuit Blanche...! She blew a kiss at me and I fake-fainted.
=) Small world.

Well, I guess we are in the same country...
Claude Lyneis 2 years ago

At 30 frames per second per 1800 per minute 2 min 15 seconds is about 4000 frames. That's a little short of 30,000. I really enjoyed the time lapse and the video. Great work. Making time lapse is on my agenda with my new D5000.
Will Cyr 2 years ago

I knew someone would mention this ;) Most of the clips are sped up, some close to 800%. We did the tally the other day, and it weighed in at over 31, 000.

Glad you liked it !

I have been to so many of those places while visiting Ottawa! That same girl was working at the Beaver Tails place as when I went there! Great job with the vid.
Nikhil Bhowmick 2 years ago

Cool vid. I did not know the D80 had such video possibilities! What lens did you use? What aperture?

Thanks
Will Cyr 2 years ago

Thanks Nikhil ! We used the stock lens from the D90 18-55 (it's what we had ;) To help keep a constant depth of field, the camera was usually set to aperture priority.

How does an intervalometer actually work. I understand timelapse, but how do you get the smooth motion pans / tilts?
Will Cyr 2 years ago

For the pans and tilts we used this telescope mount.

Hey William, Renee, C'est vrai que ca bouge vite a Ottawa! Portez-vous des Converses?
Will Cyr 2 years ago

Hey Lise - C'est vrai - l'été passe tellement vite que c'est comme si s'était filmer en temps réel. ;)
Daniel B 2 years ago

I love time lapse videos like these. But yours is has just gone the extra mile and amazes like the whole combination of the photos, music and text put together to create a very interesting video.
Btw I've just signed up to vimeo and it is way better than youtube for creative, art, visual and cultural videos

Thanks everyone for the all comments and support ! We truly appreciate it.
Kevin Williams 2 years ago

I'm with Claude; even if the source material contained >30,000 frames, your output is still 30 FPS (or less) which means most of those frames were dropped during rendering -- otherwise your output would be leaping to 120+ FPS at times, which no video CODEC supports to my knowledge.

Great video, though.
Will Cyr 2 years ago

Hey Kevin / Glad you liked it - You're right, our output is 29.97 fps. But 30k+ only refers to the amount of pictures we took for this piece. Not the final QT.

Could work like a "Travel to Ottawa" advertisement.

it's been far too long since I last had a beavertail. TO is still > Ottawa though.
Will Cyr 1 year ago

Thanks for checking it out Sam. We currently live in Toronto. I love it and it's awesome for different reasons, but I wouldn't trade my time in Ottawa for anything. Try finding a good shawarma out here ;)

Great sequence ! what's the model of the pan/tilt head on the picture ? Merlin ? I'd love to have the same !!
Will Cyr 10 months ago

Thanks Timewarp ! The tripod used in this video doesn't seem to be available anymore. I believe this would be the closest equivalent : shop.telescope-warehouse.com/product.sc;jsessionid=EE89DD77E2C8655C7AA09DAFF3B3E44A.qscstrfrnt04?productId=121
