It may seem that time-lapse photography is very recent, but people has been using the technique for a quite some time. Movies like Koyaanisqatsi (1982) and Baraka (1992) use the technique to tell stories only visually and without dialogue, that is why they are great examples people keep bringing up when talking about time-lapse. But it wasn’t until a few years ago that the technique became quite popular. In recent years productions of all types have been using time-lapse. Today just one person is enough to create high quality content using the technique, that was not possible before since the gear was quite heavy for one person to carry around and it was pretty expensive as well. Currently, time-lapse photography is everywhere and anybody with creativity, dedication and few resources is able to create high quality content using the technique.

You will learn what a time-lapse is, not just as a video created from photographs, but as a resource you can use on an audiovisual production as well. You will get to know about the different types of applications a time-lapse has (there are different branches of time-lapse photography), and you will learn about all the technical knowledge needed to create time-lapse videos.

  • How to use a camera in manual mode

Make sure to install and test the software before the workshop. I don’t offer software installation during the workshop to avoid wasting time and to get the most out of the class.

How does online teaching work?

Online workshops are via Google Meet where you can see my computer’s screen while I’m teaching the theory, then you can go out and practice by yourself and finally we have a second meeting so you can learn how to edit what you captured. The workshop is completely interactive! You can ask questions at any time during the videocall.

  • Date and time at students convenience
  • You need a microphone and speakers/headphones to take the workshop
  • Google Meet can be used directly from your Internet browser, there’s no need to install any additional app (check this page to learn how to use Meet)
  • 4 people minimum are needed for me to teach a group workshop
