One of my favorites music videos was a time laspe based video made in 1984 which was produced by Louis Schwarzberg to go along with Jean-Luc Ponty's music in Individual Choice. Here is some doodling with some time laspe sky action. The cumulus clouds are going north and the cirrus are going east which creates a cool contrast.

cool. it does end a bit sudden though. what music is that?

ever seen the movie koyaniskatski? thats a 1.5 hours movie with images like that, some slowed down motion and some speeded up. really cool. music by philip glass.

Thanks oki. I had the little Sony Handycam on a time laspe setting for a few hours and it resulted in just 40 seconds or so. There was actually a test run with some Premiere graphic effect for the first couple of seconds. The music is me messing around with some ideas using the Variax.

I appreciate your comments. That was indeed a song idea that was supposed evolve into Original Song #2.

:nice:

..the song definetly has Snouter traits to it :nice:

i love clouds..the trees can go though. might be cool, clouds only, then maybe some birds in flight in regular time super-imposed on to them...

hey, it Saturday :p

clouds only, then maybe some birds in flight in regular time super-imposed on to them

Cool idea. I think in order to do that right we would have to get the birds flying against a uniform background (like a cloudless blue sky to replicate a studio green screen) and then delete the blue. The backgroundless bird video at normal speed could then be superimposed onto time lapse sky/cloud footage.

well..you could always go out on the boat and chum for seagulls :D

The filthy, disgusting Canadian Geese have pretty much squeezed out the Seagull populations around here, but because the weather in the northeast sucks, I haven't even been able to get more cloud footage. :(

Do you guys have a video camera so you can kick it up to the next level and do music videos?

I managed to accumulate some more cloud footage, plus I tried to do a quick improv with the Original Song #2 by doing another take of the lead guitar. But I will redo the thing completely when time permits; the song stops before the video ends. I notice that a time lapse setting of 3-4 seconds turns about to be fast enough for clouds.

i like how the song ends with just the bass and guitar...the dark clouds at the end is a nice closing :nice:

no I have no video camera.. well I can do an 80 frames shot with my digicam. maybe I can come up with a video, I dont know, Ive never tried.

Thanks, RedLine, I agree the clouds at sunset (or preceding a storm) are the most interesting.

oki, had I known you guys didn't have a video camera I would have sent one of you my old S-VHS setup. I ended up selling it on Ebay for a couple of bucks.

wow thats really nice, snouter.
