Time-Lapse Video Production
Time-lapse photography is a technique that enables photographers to capture changes or movements that occur over a long period. To create a time-lapse video of, for example, a day-to-night transition, we set up a camera in a fixed location and takes photos at regular intervals. When these photos are played back in rapid succession, you can see the gradual change of the photographed scenery or process.
During the final stage of creating a time-lapse video, known as post-production, it is essential to pay close attention to detail. We meticulously sort through all the captured images and handpick the ones that will make the final video more appealing. Then, using specialized post-production software, we retouch and enhance these images to create a visually stunning time-lapse video that captivates and engages viewers. Check out our portfolio:
Continuing with the series of time-lapse videos, TimeLAX02 includes photo sequences from Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley areas along with additional shots from Downtown Los Angeles and its surroundings. Hiking to Mount Lee to capture the city during the sunset behind the world famous Hollywood Sign involved taking four long walks uphill with 30lbs of camera gear, a powerful flashlight, snake-guards and a can of bear spray (to be somehow protected against wild animals) but being up there was a totally amazing experience. This iconic landmark is protected by a technological fortress, surrounded by a regular fence to stop visitors (and vandals) from trespassing and getting close to the sign, which is strictly prohibited. The sign is monitored 24/7 with infrared surveillance cameras.
TimeLAX is a time-lapse photography project that shows the Greater Los Angeles area from many angles.
The project includes different types of photography such as panoramic, architectural and artistic. We have scouted, tested and selected more than 200 locations that will be presented in a series of videos. Although we have photo sequences made from popular spots such as the 4th St overpass in Downtown, the Griffith Observatory, the Disney Concert Hall and the John Ferraro Building, we also included unique photo sequences captured from hard-to-find and hard-to-access places.
