Time Lapse Animation

Time-lapse Animation

Time lapse animation when you set a camera to go off once every 10 minutes when you have 500 frames that would take 5000 minutes to capture but because it takes 25 frames a second it would only be 20 seconds of animation. Even though it doesn't take long to set up a time lapse animation it would take a long time to make sure that the camera goes off at the exact same time and it takes longer to do a time lapse animation than any other animation. 

Red Bull Can Time lapse 

This is a time lapse of someone drawing a red bull can. The video is 3:45 or 225 seconds and the frame rate is 25 FPS then 225 x 25= 5625 frames to take for the video. If he took a picture every 10 seconds then 5625 x 10 = 56250 then divide 56250 by 60 seconds which equals 937 minuets.
