  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

New Timelapse Reel - Summer '08

Andrew, feel free to PM or call me or anything.

Ketch, is Unconditional a feature? short?
 
Great job Tom. I love your work.

Question for you - I'm about to convert a whole bunch of RAW timelapse files I shot. Would like to know your workflow (if you don't mind). I want the highest resolution masters (extracted from the raw files), yet work in the same timeline with my RED footage (which will be quicktime proxies). ANy thoughts?

Cheers,
Dale
 
These days I am doing 100% of my processing in Adobe After Effects. AE can ingest the RAW (.CR2) image sequences directly through the Camera Raw plugin, just as with Photoshop. I do all my color correcting in Camera Raw, make a 4K or 2K or 1080p composition, then render MOVs (usually Photo JPeg at 95% or maybe Jpeg 2000). These renders are of beautiful quality, because they are coming straight off the RAW files.

Once you have rendered out your MOVs, you can drop them into any NLE for editing.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions. Sometimes AE can be a little daunting if you're not used to it.
 
There are some little islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific where Tom could get some spectacular material.

Tom, can you imagine doing time lapse shots from the surface of the Moon? Wonder how it would turn out...
 
... so like "earth-rise"? If Nasa wants to send me, I'm game. :weight_lift:

Make sure they offer you a return ticket.
 
After sitting in the humid depths of northern Sulawesi I now come back into the concrete of Indonesia with a slow connection. Am off to Japan in a few days so will check it out then. If anything like the previous stuff I am sure I'll be posting again soon.

Any sharks in it ??? hehehe

Cheers Tom,
Mark.
