Time lapse


A time lapse is a Sequence of images that are taken from a camera every few seconds, Then the images are all played back together which create the illusion of a moving image. There is a debate that is constantly going on through photographers and animators about time lapses being either animation or photography. 







Time lapse of hurricane sandy hitting NewYork. The Time lapse was taken from a camera that was left filming all day long to show you the progression of the storm, These time lapses were very popular through this storm which mean news broke out about the storms happenings faster than on the news.













Time lapse of a girl growing up from birth to 10 years old. This time lapse was taken by taken by taking a photo everyday for 10 years and when the photos are all played together it tricks your brain into thinking it is one long film, which is linked in with persistence of vision.

















This is a time lapse of a city throughout the day in different areas. This time lapse shows a city workings at night, the most of the video shows an airport time lapse which shows just how busy airports can be, as I said before it is the persistence of vision which tricks your brain into thinking the photos are a video.










Cut out 3

We have completed the cut out animation and here is the finished product.

Made by Andrew C, Matty O, Rory S and Sophie C. The quality is not that good due to the camera and lighting but we cannot help that. I found out that cut out animation is very difficult as you cannot use your finger without moving more than you wanted, we had problems with trying to move for example an arm and moving much more.
