Clouds - Timelapse Photography & HiDef Video on Canon 500d

Summary

Canon 500d Camera
I wanted to try out timelapse photography to see what I could acheive, using an external shutter timer, I took 3400 frames of lowest resolution pictures (as I only have 16G card) - still the photos were excellent, pointed at the hills in Adelaide, with a 300mm zoom lense. I also recorded HiDef footage (720p) of the sky. This I later speeded up within Sony Vegas to make the clouds move faster.

Onvce I had the 3400 frames I processed them with Photoshop to give a more moody feel and shrunk them to 720 resolution (1280x720), I then strung them together as an AVI using virtualDub. (at 20fps)

With all the source complete, I knocked up a simple moody track and effects and brought them together in Sony Vegas.

Enjoy...
