Small Wedding Party
March 22, 2010
This is a time lapse experiment inspired by Chase Jarvis’ 21112 party pictures video. I wanted to try this technique ever since I first saw it and decided to give it a go at our own wedding party. Here’s the result:
Tech info:
- Camera: full frame
- Focal length range: 24mm~26mm
- Exposure: ISO 400, f/5.6 (for a decent depth of field)
- Lighting: Bowens 500Ws compact studio flash set at 1/32 power (*)
- Modifier: Standard reflector for a little direction, covered with a softbox internal baffle for a little diffusion
- Camera software: Sofortbild with intervalometer set at 2sec (*)
- Encoding and Muxing: Mencoder
(*) The strobe was sourced from a rental shop. No reference about the existence (or not) of overheating protection was found by Googling, so it was treated as non-protected. Thus, it ran at its lowest setting. Even though it recycled in 0.5sec @1/32, I preferred to shoot every 2sec to be safe.
Fun info:
- Correcting WB at 0:51 to mark the change from prep day to party day.
- Looking for a Creative Commons artist to fit the mood of the video and finding this little treasure.
- Resolving the 3x Maria and 3x Eleni conflict in the cast.
- Almost having the fastest divorce in history, because on Sunday I spent more time editing and encoding the video than with my wife.
