This video creation lark is hard work!

[Inspiration101]

Here we go, been at it most the day to create this.  

 

1606 images, all resized and framed to 1920x1080.  20FPS.  You can turn up the resolution within the player window settings to 1080p if you wish.

 

My first video was 3m54, after several cuts I have gotten this down to a more sensibly sized 1m20.

 

Thanks to @BjornIronSide13 for inspiring my choice of music.

 

Enjoy!

Well that was a mad rush and I was a minute late, can you believe it!  

I spent all week on a mixture of timelapse and stills video and got it finished with 6 and 1/2 hours to spare. For some reason when I exported it and saved the project both saved with just the logo showing and no video or sound. I had made a 6 second timelapse for each day of bloom from day 1 to 60, just before I started cropping.  The action cam I used took 3 hours to charge each day and gave me 6 seconds of video over a 4 hour period before running flat, so it took some dedication making sure it was charged and reset each day. Never mind, there was a bit of light banding on the timelapse sections anyway. So I set about creating this one with stills and have been bang at it since 5:30, not having time to make any special effects or anything. It took long enough with all the sizing, fading and adding the titles and tunes! Shame about the other one really, because you would have enjoyed it a lot better than this one  

 

All the best in the competition everyone
