1
00:00:00,050 --> 00:00:03,590
Okay, cool. So, we found a really nice rooftop location.
2
00:00:03,590 --> 00:00:05,890
We've got this really cool panoramic of the city.
3
00:00:05,885 --> 00:00:08,265
The clouds are looking banging right now.
4
00:00:08,260 --> 00:00:09,960
What we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and set up
5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,770
a two axis motion controlled shot.
6
00:00:11,765 --> 00:00:13,475
If we look off in the distance,
7
00:00:13,470 --> 00:00:16,040
we can see that the clouds are moving from right to left.
8
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,520
So, we actually want to set up our motion control shot to go from left to right.
9
00:00:19,515 --> 00:00:21,275
So, when we actually play back the video,
10
00:00:21,270 --> 00:00:24,280
it's going to be a nice little parallax of motion in between there.
11
00:00:24,275 --> 00:00:28,245
So, it's the same setup as doing a standard timelapse.
12
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,630
We're going to go ahead and throw on a two axis motion control head.
13
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:33,030
We're going to be using the Kessler second shooter which I find is
14
00:00:33,030 --> 00:00:35,370
the best head out there right now.
15
00:00:35,370 --> 00:00:36,720
It's super easy to use,
16
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,740
very easy to set up and it only takes a few minutes to do.
17
00:00:40,735 --> 00:00:42,955
So, we're going to go ahead and get this set up.
18
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:52,110
So, the first we want to do is we actually want to get the head on the tripod first.
19
00:00:52,110 --> 00:00:53,430
So, I'm going to go ahead and mount the head.
20
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:56,820
So, we're going to go ahead and mount the head.
21
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,810
It's also important to note that we're also going to weigh down the tripod
22
00:01:02,810 --> 00:01:07,790
after we set up a shop because we don't want the tripod blown over.
23
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:15,420
Make sure it's locked in place. All right.
24
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:24,420
Make sure everything's on there tight. Lock it down.
25
00:01:24,415 --> 00:01:28,305
We're going to change lenses for this one because the 14 is just a little too wide.
26
00:01:28,300 --> 00:01:32,920
We're going to go with something a little bit tighter which is like maybe 24 or 35.
27
00:01:41,050 --> 00:01:43,570
This is our time lapse controller.
28
00:01:43,565 --> 00:01:45,815
This is basically going to be the same thing as the intervalometer.
29
00:01:45,810 --> 00:01:48,910
But it's also going to program the move that we want to do.
30
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,010
What we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and set up our pan tilt heads.
31
00:01:54,010 --> 00:01:57,240
We're going to connect those connections to the controller.
32
00:01:57,970 --> 00:02:03,160
Going to attach tilt to tilt, and pan to pan.
33
00:02:03,155 --> 00:02:07,535
We're going to ahead program a two-frame key-frame shot.
34
00:02:07,530 --> 00:02:10,910
What you'll notice is that the head of the cameras are moving,
35
00:02:10,910 --> 00:02:12,290
and when we're sending these shots,
36
00:02:12,290 --> 00:02:14,030
we're going to be putting our in and out points.
37
00:02:14,030 --> 00:02:16,120
Since the clouds are moving to the left,
38
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,710
we're going to go ahead and start all the way to the left and then go to the right.
39
00:02:19,710 --> 00:02:21,230
It's going to be your job as
40
00:02:21,230 --> 00:02:26,170
the photographer to kind determine where that scene is going to start and stop,
41
00:02:26,170 --> 00:02:27,670
and really it's just a preference.
42
00:02:27,670 --> 00:02:31,770
So it is important to make sure that your tripod is level.
43
00:02:31,890 --> 00:02:35,590
Now, I would recommend using a little bit sturdier tripod for
44
00:02:35,590 --> 00:02:38,620
this but since we're on a travel mode kind of way,
45
00:02:38,620 --> 00:02:40,380
we're going to go ahead and just use this guy.
46
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:43,860
But I'm going to weigh it down with my bag after we're done setting it up.
47
00:02:43,855 --> 00:02:46,065
So, you can control pan tilt.
48
00:02:46,065 --> 00:02:52,795
I'm going to go ahead and zoom into about 35 millimeters.
49
00:02:52,790 --> 00:02:55,400
Make sure you check your focus.
50
00:02:55,395 --> 00:02:59,855
If you're using a Sony camera they've got some really nice features that show you
51
00:02:59,850 --> 00:03:05,300
your focal points and let you know if you're in focus.
52
00:03:05,300 --> 00:03:08,290
Now, they checked focus and everything is good them and go ahead and plan my shot.
53
00:03:08,285 --> 00:03:11,505
So for the first keyframe we're going to go ahead and start off to the left here.
54
00:03:11,500 --> 00:03:13,060
I want to go ahead and punch enter.
55
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:18,610
And then, we're going to move the camera so that it pans all the way to the right.
56
00:03:18,605 --> 00:03:26,185
And then, we're going to simply go ahead and enter that.
57
00:03:26,180 --> 00:03:29,610
So we've set our move if you want you can always go back and check it out.
58
00:03:29,610 --> 00:03:32,440
What we're going to do is I'm going to run it once to see what the move looks like.
59
00:03:32,435 --> 00:03:37,695
And we can see to make sure it's everything we want.
60
00:03:37,690 --> 00:03:41,040
Want to go ahead and run it.
61
00:03:41,035 --> 00:03:43,635
Cameras are going to go back to beginning position
62
00:03:43,635 --> 00:03:48,375
and they will be able to see what looks like in real time.
63
00:03:48,370 --> 00:03:57,670
We get a really
64
00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:59,500
nice little panoramic shot here.
65
00:03:59,495 --> 00:04:03,555
The next thing to do is we're going to do just like we do with the stationary cameras.
66
00:04:03,550 --> 00:04:04,890
We're going to set up the intervals.
67
00:04:04,890 --> 00:04:07,110
And since we're not really capturing sunset here,
68
00:04:07,110 --> 00:04:10,000
we just want to capture the motion of the clouds as they are going into sunset.
69
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,430
We're getting kind of probably use a pretty fast interval.
70
00:04:12,430 --> 00:04:15,940
So for this in particular we're probably going to use three to four seconds
71
00:04:15,940 --> 00:04:18,400
and because we know that the exposure is
72
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,820
going to be changing and it's going to be going a little bit darker.
73
00:04:20,815 --> 00:04:23,715
I'm going to overexpose for one stop,
74
00:04:23,710 --> 00:04:26,650
and that's going to allow me to get
75
00:04:26,650 --> 00:04:30,960
the upper and lower levels that we need for the exposure when it comes down to process.
76
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,620
As you can see on my camera right here,
77
00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:37,290
I've increased it to one stop over.
78
00:04:37,290 --> 00:04:39,330
That's going to compensate for the light as it's
79
00:04:39,330 --> 00:04:42,600
changing over the course of the next 25 minutes or so.
80
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,750
Effectively, we have a 3.5 second
81
00:04:45,750 --> 00:04:49,290
interval which means every 3.5 seconds are going to be taking one shot.
82
00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:51,540
And what's great about the second shooter controllers,
83
00:04:51,540 --> 00:04:53,310
it actually tells you and calculates exactly
84
00:04:53,310 --> 00:04:55,470
how much time is going to be remaining in the shot.
85
00:04:55,470 --> 00:04:59,370
For this particular shot we've got 23 minutes and 17 seconds.
86
00:04:59,370 --> 00:05:03,110
What we'll do is we'll make sure that all of our camera settings are correct.
87
00:05:03,105 --> 00:05:09,855
We'll make sure that we've plugged in our shuttle release for the camera.
88
00:05:09,855 --> 00:05:14,725
And then, want to go ahead and close my bag up hear and I'm going to use it as a weight.
89
00:05:15,890 --> 00:05:20,020
Make sure that it's really tight and on there good.
90
00:05:20,290 --> 00:05:22,640
All right. Our shots are ready to go.
91
00:05:22,635 --> 00:05:26,135
We're going to go ahead. Make sure everything's set up that we have,
92
00:05:26,130 --> 00:05:28,530
anything auto's turned off.
93
00:05:29,380 --> 00:05:32,450
All you got to do is come down here. Hit start.
94
00:05:32,450 --> 00:05:35,390
Camera is going to reset back to its starting position.
95
00:05:35,390 --> 00:05:37,710
And then, we're good to go.
96
00:05:37,705 --> 00:05:42,315
Time left started we'll see how it turns out.
97
00:05:42,315 --> 00:05:46,765
I think one of
98
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,250
the biggest things you have to really watch out for when you're doing
99
00:05:49,250 --> 00:05:52,020
a timelapse especially on a roof is the wind.
100
00:05:52,020 --> 00:05:55,670
Wind is going to be the biggest annoyance you have because right
101
00:05:55,670 --> 00:05:59,790
now we're getting a really nice cross wind that's causing the camera to shake.
102
00:05:59,790 --> 00:06:01,940
In post-production we're going to have to go back and
103
00:06:01,940 --> 00:06:04,280
add what's called a warp stabilizer and that's really just
104
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:09,380
going to smooth it out and make sure it's not jittery. But it's not too bad.
105
00:06:09,380 --> 00:06:11,630
But always make sure that you have some kind of
106
00:06:11,630 --> 00:06:14,390
stabilization whether you use your backpack, sandbags,
107
00:06:14,390 --> 00:06:18,380
or just a really heavy duty sturdy tripod because keeping
108
00:06:18,380 --> 00:06:23,580
your camera vibration free is going to be the most important thing for a timelapse.
109
00:06:23,580 --> 00:06:25,940
If you're really interested in doing a motion control shot,
110
00:06:25,940 --> 00:06:27,390
you can either go out and buy a unit.
111
00:06:27,390 --> 00:06:32,660
Which the units cost anywhere between 600 and $1000 for a standard unit,
112
00:06:32,660 --> 00:06:34,290
or you can go out and rent something and that could be
113
00:06:34,290 --> 00:06:37,730
just a couple hundred bucks or even less than a $100.
114
00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:39,860
But for something like this, this unit here,
115
00:06:39,860 --> 00:06:42,320
for a full package you're probably looking at around
116
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,800
a $1000 but it's going to take you from the next level
117
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,580
from beginner to pro and what it really
118
00:06:48,580 --> 00:06:51,400
get allow you to do is when you couple this with a slider,
119
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,160
you can create a nice three axis motion control move,
120
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,770
and even stand a two axis head move is even perfect because you got pan and tilt.
121
00:06:58,765 --> 00:07:03,485
You can capture everything in a 360 degree bubble which is fantastic.
122
00:07:03,485 --> 00:07:06,265
So I really recommend going out.
123
00:07:06,265 --> 00:07:10,675
The Kessler second shooter is my go to timelapse control rig.
124
00:07:10,675 --> 00:07:15,665
And I find that it's super easy to use and very ergonomic.
125
00:07:15,660 --> 00:07:18,420
You can put it in any kind of backpack or case,
126
00:07:18,420 --> 00:07:21,740
and it's very lightweight, and it does a great job.
