Timelapse Photography: Bringing Landscapes to Life
A timelapse is a video in which the passage of time has been sped up to compress several minutes or hours of time into a few seconds or minutes. It is created from many individual photographs taken at a set interval which could be a few seconds or minutes apart. Each photograph then becomes one frame of the timelapse video. Timelapse is an engaging medium through which to capture the subtle changes and moods of a landscape. Static landscape photographs are spectacularly brought to life, allowing the viewer to observe the dynamism and majesty of our ever-changing world.
We can produce timelapses for commercial and non-commercial organisations in a variety of file formats and resolutions (up to 8K video). Typical uses are for publicity, tourism, documentaries and nature films. Browse through our Timelapse Gallery for links to our individual timelapse sequences. All of these are available for licence, and most are 4K resolution.
Our timelapse sequences have featured most recently in BBC Northern Ireland's 4-part series, Chronicles of Mourne (2018), Dokyu (2019), FujiTV (Japan), and Channel Five's Adrian's Dunbar's Coastal Ireland (2021). Below are links to some examples of our timelapse film work.
