First Successful Timelapse Test at HD Resolution !

Hi friends. I finally got one timelapse sequence which actually worked ! :-) In a long series of tests over three days, I have begun to slowly work out the parameters of what minimum length of exposure is required to register a short burst onto HDV video tape with our production camcorder (Canon XL H1). I'm finally getting a handle on the correct settings to use with the Mumford Time Machine. These tests must be carried out in advance of this Spring's shoot of all missing timelapse sequences in order to complete Episode 2: No Reflection. Please see the video below and judge the results for yourself. Be careful not to get a false impression of how the final timelapse sequences will look. These test are made only to judge functionality of the Intervelometer settings. These shots are by no means art ! ;-) There will be more tests this week and I'll post more examples as they turn out.

Later,

MJ
