Some of my first lapses with motion tracking

[eheath]

Give me some input, i've been playing with my hvx alot and im getting more used to it. I have a cirular polarizing filter also which i feel make some of my shots look better. I appreciate any contructive criticism.

nice looking. How are you doing the moves are they artificial zooms ect?

Yeah its keyframing and motion tracking in FCP. First time i really have been able to use it and make it work well.

so you didn't zoom in with the camera while filming the timelapse shots?

Nope, just zoomed in on fcp.

I have always thought of trying that, i have done it in some stuff but never combined with a time lapse, looks pretty legit!

looks great....

what settings (frames per second) did you use to do this?

thanks.

I shot in interval, so i set it to film camera, then choose interval under record mode. I believe they are all at 1s interval, so basically 1 frame per second.

Sorry, I set it to video camera mode. You can't shoot interval unless you are on video camera mode, not film mode.

Otherwise nice.

How does it look at full res? Was it recorded 1080 and down converted?

Full res is sick, i don't think i have a good place to upload a 400mb file though. I recorded at 720p though, since you have to record 60, and i hate interlaced shots. I want to shoot 1080p60i and see how much i can zoom and make it look well.

use exposureroom.com upload an h.264 at 720. It is good enough to see details.

Didn't turn out that great, i could have uploaded a better file though, oh well.
