Advice when shooting a time-lapse

never shoot in JPG
essential to use long shutter speeds of between 1/3 and 3s
moving plants, especially when they are in the foreground, look horrible in time-lapse.
to think that everything can be timelapsed is a big mistake.
care about framing, composition, light, and the subject
only move the camera when this movement really brings something to the shot, or at least doesn’t distract from the most important, the subject

over-retouching with aggressive process with surreal textures on buildings and dramatic skies

Not all the videos made with time-lapse must have a epic track, or use the music of the famous Icelandic band Sigur Ros

never upload your video to Youtube. The image quality...is terrible and the compression applied to the videos is very high...upload it to Vimeo, where the quality is pretty good and you will get in contact with a community of filmmakers


All good points
