Amazon's Description:
There‘s always a fast moving development in the video- and camera technology. Better sensors, lenses and calculating algorithms of the cameras enable the creation of bodacious images.
One reasonably new technique is the HDR photography which uses multiple different exposed images to gain the whole dynamic range of what our eye can actually see. The created images are combined in a post production process to a single impressive image.
Another camera technique is the time-lapse technique. At time-lapse, single pictures are taken in a long period of time. These pictures are combined to a movie and show the long period of time accelerated. Sure, this technique is not completely new, but the fast developments in the sector of the DSLR cameras enable many new possibilities in creating time-lapse recordings.
The combination of the two above mentioned technologies creates other possibilities to record impressions of the reality in a more interesting and brilliant way. The highly developed DSLR cameras enable the combination of these techniques without any additional equipment. This simplicity and compactness make it possible to develop the time-lapse technique in a way to create more exciting sequences.
The use of more than one camera enables panorama photography in time-lapse. The latest developments are moving time-lapse recordings. In most cases the camera is rotated or dollied at a very slow speed. Because of the need of very minimal and extremely precise movements it is very difficult to create constant smooth movements. But exactly that is the future of such films. The movement of a camera creates an impression of the space at which it is pointed at.
This thesis takes a closer look at the possibilities in creating HDR, panorama and time-lapse recordings. Possibilities of creating complex movements in three dimensional space at the use of HDR panorama time-lapse is also a topic of this thesis.
The difficulties in the creation of time-lapse recordings are getting emblazed and a possible production pipeline is developed. To increase the experience of the impressions a way to create panoramic HDR time-lapse with using more than one DSLR- camera is shown. Also a closer look at the post production process in the field of time lapse recordings is given.
