    People-

    I need to create some time lapse footage. The subject is a construction site. One camera position.

    The shoot: I’ll be using my Panasonic HMC 150 (AVCHD). Its a long shoot, 2 days – up to 10 hrs each day.

    The edit: PP Cs4, on my Macbook Pro (dual Core).

    End use: Client doesn’t know, Probably web video, maybe industrial use on a dvd. Not broadcast.

    So what do you think? I have an idea of how the workflow should go, but I want to get everyones take on it.

    Im thinking shoot at 720p, import into PP timeline, export every 6th frame as a tiff, then throw it back in the timeline? Then export as what?

    Dave & everyone

    Thanks! The client doesn’t know how long I will have to film or what they are going to use the footage for or how long the final product will be. So I am thinking play it safe and just film the entire thing in real time so that I can have some flexibility later.

    Sound good? Sound crazy?
