Time Lapse Camera

I decided to get a time lapse camera to capture the build of the house. I went with a LTL ltl-6310wa trail camera that uses 8 AA batteries and SDHC cards - at present it has a 16gb card which is good enough for a weeks footage at 12MP. I'm taking a picture every minute from 6am in the morning until 6pm at night (originally 7am til 7pm but some of the tradesmen are turning up earlier).

So 60 shots per hour x 12 hour day = 720 shots.
So 7 days per week x 720 shots = 5040 shots
About 6 months (26 weeks) x 5040 = 131040 shots

PAL is 25fps so divide 131040 / 25 = 5241 seconds of video footage
5241 / 60 = 87 minutes of video = 1 hour 27 minutes of video

Should be super cool. I've uploaded the first 3 days when they start the cut.

The video at 12mp is actually 4000x3000 pixels. I've upload the pictures into Photoshop, cut and past the time/date stamps further up, cropped the image to a 16:9 format and then resized to 1080p. The images are then processed using a batch script.

Then using Time Lapse Assembler for the Mac, I join all the images together to create a .mov.

I then use QuickTime to stitch them together.
