Cinematography - experimenting and time lapse

Posted on 14:07 by Unknown
I got out a P2 camcorder from the media desk on Friday to have a good play with it over the weekend..



One of the first things I wanted to try out was time lapse so I positioned it to point out of my window:



Apologies for the funny grey start - they all start like this, it must be the way I exported them out of premiere.

I took the camera down by the beach and filmed my girlfriend Nina walking along the rocks; I know that Pete Langford may have mentioned something about typical student film methods but I couldn't resist..(mmmmm zoooooooom)



Heres a random one I took as it was getting dark. My friend Carl pretending to sit on a bench. Comic genius :D



On Sunday I still had to quench my desire for more time lapse footage so I rushed over to Falmouth Docks before the sunset.



It got pretty cold but it was totally worth it. I learned that: if filming a time lapse over a period when the lighting alters dramatically - its best to work without the filters clicked on. When I turned them off whilst it was getting darker it altered the brightness a bit too suddenly. Next time I will just adjust the iris/aperture gradually.
