As many of you might know, it's time for the ever popular Weekend Workshop again! We are especially excited about this one. Not only because we are fully booked and maxed out but because we have something super cool to share with you! Actually more than just something, a few things...

One of the most popular subjects to timelapse must be construction. Everyone knows what it looks like to see the progress of a building going up and that is why it's becoming more and more popular to shoot and use timelapses of such projects. That's exactly where the Brinno Construction and HDR timelapse cameras comes in. Be sure to read this review on these affordable timelapse cameras!

Shooting natural history documentaries is what filmmaking is all about!! At least to us ;-)
Being commissioned to work on assignments like “Cats of the Camelthorn” (working title), a new Trilogy about three iconic African trees, is something we’ve been praying for and we’d love to share this incredible experience with you all!

Earlier this year we blogged about an exciting longterm timelapse project happening In Sandton, Johannesburg. Timelapse is such a great way to show how these incredible projects are taking place and exactly what it takes to develop such astounding architecture.

How would you like to know the performance differences between the Nikon D610 and the Canon 6D?

Well, we'd like to know really really bad!! So we're heading out to do a full-on and in-depth review on both these two DSLR cameras, specifically for timelapse photography purposes.

Getting my Shukuma PRO dolly up to par with other high-end moco systems out there meant that I needed more axises, not one, not two, not three but four…. To achieve that it was only wise to look into the eMotimo TB3 - a precision 3 axis motion controller. Together with the Shukuma PRO I can now shoot linear, pan and tilt moves with the fourth very exciting axis being follow focus!

Construction is happening all around us and it's happening so fast, we hardly notice it. Few people truly know what it takes to construct these buildings. Unless you can view it in a timelapse of course! This way everyone can appreciate the efforts going into such large projects especially if it takes 4 years to complete ;-)

In early November 2013 we set out on a mission to put up two static timelapse cameras in a warehouse to shoot a timelapse of racks & shelving being installed. Little did we know how amazing this shoot will turn out!

When planning our timelapse trip to the Karoo there was an evident thought about the possibility of Fracking (hydraulic fracturing) in this pristine landscape in the near future.

Yay!! The Australian wine commercial that we rigged the timelapse dollies for earlier in June is finally on air. The entire commercial was shot on the Shukuma DOLLY and it was an interesting combination of timelapse and stop-motion.

The result is fantastic!!
