Description
This two-part course will cover these topics in depth. Students will gain a solid grounding in time-lapse photography and best practices essential for success.
Digital photography has become a daily part of our lives. We consume and create photography almost constantly in our daily travels. A natural stepping stone to still photography is time-lapse, the art of capturing change over time. Only since the advent of modern digital cameras has time-lapse photography become so accessible. Time-lapse photography produces stunning images that give viewers a glimpse of the world as they rarely see it. It is a technique that compresses timed capture over an interval of time into a concise creative rhythm. In this workshop, I will demonstrate how anyone could leverage this functionality with gear they already own.
Join me for a morning of learning time-lapse photography at Castle Island. This Instructor Lead course will walk through the entire time-lapse capture process, starting from Camera settings, Lens considerations, White balance considerations, Exposure, and finally, Processing. In addition to the time-lapse photography basics, we will discuss frame rates, flicker, the use of ND filters, sliders, and post-processing methods of adding additional motion to your time-lapse. We will also discuss how to add post-production value to your time-lapse to create a polished finished video. The video of the Old Stone Church is an example of a time-lapse you can create.
This is a hands-on workshop followed by an online post-processing session.
OVERVIEW
We will shoot a time-lapse sequence at Castle Island, Boston where there is a lot of harbor action, including the activity at Logan Airport. There are many vistas here where you can choose to base your time-lapse. You can use a wide angle, nifty-fifty, normal zoom, and telephoto. All are recommended. You will need a Circular Polarizer (CPL), and Neutral Density (ND) to fit the lens you will use. If you have a square filter set that combines a polarizer and ND, like the Benro, NiSi, and the like, these make for ideal time-lapse tools.
