All I Did Was Slap This Footage Together, Which Came Straight Out Of The Camera, No Fades, Filters, Or Effects For This Canon 60d Test

I love the 60d, and did this test on it. It is a time lapse of approaching storm clouds. Watch as the darkness descends upon the venerable houses. Is this really a Canon 60d test? Yes and no, it is more like successful footage for my new zombie movie, all shot on the 60d.

But, yes, this too can be called a Canon 60d test, because I just got the intervalometer, and any time lapse is like a test. What do I mean? You never know what you are going to get. Its the surprise effect that I like which makes it fun. You can plan it, but the end result always surprises me.

The theme here is obvious in this Canon 60d test: the apocalypse is coming, darkness and danger is descending, swallowing everything in its path. Will the Zombie infection take root in our homes? Yes!

This is raw footage. All I did was slap this footage together, which came straight out of the camera, no fades, filters, or effects. I learned how to do it thirty years ago even before my video days, when I shot film. I still think it looks better this way than putting the footage through effects generators. Old school is sometimes the best school. What can be done in camera, should be done in camera that's the old rule. This Canon 60d test needed three storms to create. You need quite a bit of old fashioned patience to do these Time lapses. All I needed to do to get the right atmosphere was get the right manual aperture.

Like anything you can see on YouTube the quality is way below the original footage. The finished project will look great on the biggest screen, I guarantee that. Pay attention to the nasty time lapse flicker. Since you don't know what you are getting, every time lapse is like a Canon 60d test. Sometimes you get flicker, sometimes you don't. My suggestion to reduce the flicker is to use one exposure for every one second interval.

I really don’t know why the DSLR camera does this, but one factor is that the light is actually changing every second, but our eyes can not perceive these changes, when the camera can. Of course in the Canon 60d test you will notice the compression in the blacks, and later, in the fished movie, I would match the colors, contrast, and brightness, and crush the blacks a bit, but you get the idea. Here is where you can learn more about Time lapse and the Canon 60d intervalometer.

So here is Canon 60d test footage:
