Not long ago, I had the privilege of being interviewed by Jane Millichip, who is currently the CEO of BAFTA and was previously the Chief Content Officer of Sky Studios. The interview was featured in Good on Paper magazine, a publication I hold in high regard. I would appreciate it if you could take a moment to read the article and share your thoughts here.

TIME-LAPSE

Time-lapse is when you, instead of taking 24 or more frames per second is the only grab one or two‘s frames per second. When usually using this technique wearing the action taking place very slowly, like a sunset, and not everybody has the patience to sit down for 10 minutes and watch it. So the timeframe will accelerate the whole action and make it more dynamic and appealing to the regular audience. Of course, rather applications for timelapse that you may want to share with others in the comment section.
Thank you
