Finishing work on my own 1500 frame time lapse project/monstrosity, he deserves a huge pat on the back. 5000 frames, pretty impressive. I like the beginning with the crowds outside the stadium particularly. The 360 degree rotation is a very cool technique, like that very much.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I see he incorporated a bit of tilt-shift in there as well. I'm currently planning a "game day" time lapse of my own coming up here in a couple weeks and was also estimating over 5000 frames. This just serves as further inspiration and proof that it can be done. :) Max  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Easy there, Debra....let's not get ahead of ourselves! Max, in the time-lapse, I showed my photos at 24FPS, so 5,000 images is just enough for about 3.5 minutes. In my experience with time-lapses, I've found that shooting more data is better because you never know if you'll prefer to cut the beginning or end. In general, keep gathering footage so you have as much content as possible to play with in post-production. Better to have too much than too little! Good luck on yours! Thanks again for your remarks. Best, Robert  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
