Timelapse

We planned to record up to 3 timelapse videos for our 5 minute short film, this was to allow time to pass in a creative way and shows the audience without having to show a change in time through a clock. I recorded each on my Iphone due to having the built in settings of timelapse, it was easy to do during filming because we were able to set my phone down in the angle we desired and could leave it recording for the set amount of time needed. It was usefull for our actors because they could simply relax and look as though they fit in with the sequence; there is no sound recorded on the timelapse therefore they could socialise as they normally would. As directors, it enabled us to give them orders during the timelapse and talk to them about the next scenes without wasting time. 

We are happy with the outcome of each timelapse, they fit well with the sequence and have the desired effect. Below is an example of one we have included in our short film.
