J!NX.com photoshoot BTS Time-lapse

Things you need to make a time-lapse and pull off something similar:
1)small digital camera/photo taking device.
2)a place/tripod/light stand, to set up small digital photo taking device
3)a photoshoot to shoot a time-lapse of.
4)”cool” music ;)
5)some way to edit cool music and ur million photo time-lapse together as one. ;)
6)time*

My setup was an iPhone plus an app called Timelapse Pro and a “GLIF” that I used to attach my iPhone to a light stand with an umbrella adapter(tripod would have been the better option). There was also video being shot and that was on a fLip video camera. I am seeing the importance of video being an important part of being a phototrapher as a commercial to sell you basically. BUT you also have to be a good photographer who produces a good product and have a good reputation. Gone are the days of being hired because you have an entertaining video of yourself.

Why a Timelapse video of your photoshoot? If you’re the only person you can drag out to the shoot it’s a set and forget kinda of thing. It’s easy to produce a final video just slap music on it and it’s done(obviously I did a lil more and shortened the song and added other footage). Its fairly cost effective if you already own an iPhone/goPro/Digital P&S most are capable of shooting Timelapse.

Now go make a time-lapse they’re fun to make even if you aren’t making a BTS video of yourself there are other things to make a time-lapse of.
