  • Create timelapse from hours of footage? Buy Ultimate S 2?

    Posted by Jason Harbaugh on January 3, 2007 at 5:57 pm

    I need to create a 1-2min timelapse of 3 hours of realtime footage. I can do the speed tweaks in vegas (12x) and render over and over but I know compressing this much will make the action very blurred.

    After a search I found some old scripts such as barronizer which I have yet to try but also saw that Ultimate S 2.0 might have what I need? If so, this might be a good time to invest in that but I couldn’t find any definites on their site. So with Ultimate S, could I create the timelapse I need? I’m guessing pulling 1 frame each second or other second is what I will need to do to get the desired look.

    ScenalyzerLive will do this for you and it’s only $39 U.S.

    From the site:

    TIME-LAPSE CAPTURING
    * With ScenalyzerLive you can use Time Lapse Capturing to create impressive effects that can be used in your final video.
    * Record e.g. one hour of a Sunset and then use ScLive to capture the video into an e.g. 15 seconds .avi file which will show the sunset 240 times faster.

    Excalibur has the Strobe tool which can delete the specified frames between the frames to keep. The gap tool could then close the gaps.

    I don’t know if US2 has a similar feature or not.

    Also, I believe Scenalizer Live has a time lapse catpure function.

    Thanks for the info, it looks like Scenalizer is what I need, especially since I haven’t captured yet.

    Thanks everyone else for the quick replies!
