House Remodel, Roof+Paint+Landscaping = Time Lapse

[OOKfilms]

Here goes:

Just set up my rig! 8' Tower with Canon GL2 set to interval mode (automatically takes 2 seconds of video every minute)

Pointed at my house: (before pictutre)


I have the GL2 mounted on a 8' Tower:






I'll be posting some Vimeo Footage once a week so my family around the country can see the progress: the below link is shingles going on shop: 4.5 hour period but with interval timing it was about 7minutes of video sped up 1000% in FCE 4 (55 seconds)

the orange box is a battery backup that the camera is running off of in case they pull the plug while working/fixing and have to shut off the house power. The remodel should take about a month and a half so the final time lapse should be pretty sweet!!

Thanks for looking in!!

CHEERS!

Cool, can't wait to see the finished product(of your house and the video) Neat tower, BTW.

I was getting ready to sell the GL2 until I came up with this idea... I just got the HV30 and very disappointed that our HV30s don't have "interval" timed recording... seems like it is a great "option" to have on these cameras..... i know there are programs that will take every 600th frame etc... but it sure is nice to have the option right on the camera and it makes editing the footage a breeze!!

so kept the GL2 and putting it to good use!!.. should be pretty sweet when It's done (footage)......
