TIMELAPSE PHOTOGRAPHY
Time-lapse photography compresses hours, days, or even months into seconds, revealing motion and change that's invisible in real time. Whether it's clouds rolling across the sky, a construction project rising from the ground, or a city street coming to life, Kestrel Media offers a range of time-lapse techniques to suit your project, from simple static shots to fully dynamic motion sequences.
Static timelapse
The classic time-lapse technique -- a locked-off camera captures a fixed frame over an extended period, compressing gradual change into a smooth, seamless sequence. Perfect for skies, sunsets, tides, and any scene where the subject itself provides the motion.
Price is per session and includes compression into a finished, ready-to-use clip. Raw frame sequences can be supplied on request.
Motion timelapse
Add subtle camera movement to your time-lapse with a motorised slider or pan-tilt head, smoothly repositioning the camera as it captures each frame. The result is a time-lapse with genuine cinematic camera motion built in, rather than a static, locked-off shot.
Price is per session and includes compression into a finished, ready-to-use clip. Raw frame sequences can be supplied on request.
Hyperlapse
Combine time-lapse compression with significant camera movement across a scene -- walking, driving, or flying between each frame -- for a dramatic, sweeping effect that carries the viewer through space as well as time. Ideal for showcasing large sites, cityscapes, or a journey from A to B.
Price is per session and includes compression into a finished, ready-to-use clip. Raw frame sequences can be supplied on request.
Long term timelapse
Document a project or process from start to finish with a dedicated camera system installed on-site, capturing stills at scheduled intervals over weeks or months. Ideal for construction progress, growth and seasonal change, or any process that unfolds over an extended period.
Price is per camera setup and includes monthly footage compilation for the duration of your project. Final video length and delivery schedule can be tailored to suit your timeline.
