How to fake time lapse
Greetings:
I am trying to replicate time lapse footage that I’ve seen of a large satellite dish moving over the course of the day. I’m animating a still of a satellite dish and a still of a night sky. It looks decent enough, but it still lacks that choppy quality of time lapse footage. Any ideas on how to create that?
Thanks,
Larry

Hi,
You could try the following:
-Precomp your animated layers.
-Apply the Time Remap effect
-Add the following expression:
n = 15;
n*timeI am rendering and can’t test it but it should work.
The expression is from our God “Dan” or was it from “Zidan”? What the heck, they are both sooo great!
Salut.

Turn off all motion blur. Add a small random expression to the movement of the dish. (Small, like less than one degree) Use random() rather than wiggle() because you don’t want any momentum. Do the same with your lights.

Thanks guys. I’ve tried changing the frame rate already and that looks pretty good. I will try this other suggestion now. Thanks!
