Time-lapse photography considerations

Time-lapse photography depending on shooting a numbers of still frames of the event
being filmed, separating the capture process of each of them, followed by a period of time,
and when these frames are displayed sequentially, the speed of the event being filmed is
much higher than it is In fact, clouds appear as they move very fast across the sky, and the
day turns into a night in a few seconds, and the flowers bloom in moments. This different
temporal perception of movement gives us a new understanding of the events that take
hours or days, while we see them on the screen in moments. With the advent of digital
imaging technology, time-lapse technique can be implemented with digital photography
cameras, not only using cine cameras can shooting frame by frame. Which has contributed
greatly to the prevalence and spread of this technology and facilitated the possibility of
controlling the final results of the speed of movement through editing software. There are
many factors that influence the appearance of the motion that is produced by time-lapse
technique. The problem of research is that failure to control these factors appropriately to
the nature of the subject being filmed will appear in result not being achieved for the
purpose of shooting. Therefore, the research aims to identify the considerations that should
be followed to accelerate the movement based on the capture of digital still shots separated
by interval time between them, and then merged using the computer programs in a single
video file, to determine the most appropriate procedures and settings that achieve the result
required.
