Time-lapse Turntable: the making of

Last week I posted a video giving an overview of my Time-lapse Turntable project. Here's a fun time-lapse showing some of the construction.

Enjoy.



There has been some interest expressed by people wanting to know where to get one. If you are interested in me making one for you, e-mail me at turntable@hookedonlight.com and I'll put you on a list. If there is sufficient interest, I may possibly produce a batch of them for sale in the neighborhood of $200-$300 each. Anything made for sale will be significantly more polished than this rough cut proof-of-concept version.

Time-lapse Turntable: Project overview

I recently did a project for my friend Nicole Young to allow her to do some panning during a time-lapse sequence. This video is an overview of my approach to this problem. In the future, I plan to post some detailed, technical articles on my computer related blog, Skylark Software. These articles will be more about the electronics and software than the photography aspect, so I decided to post them there.

Now, go see the results Nicole got on a recent trip to Moab.

Time-lapse Turntable: Sneak peek

It's been really quiet here on the Hooked On Light site. I've been busy with other projects and haven't done too much with photography lately. Here is one project that is photography related that I've worked on recently. I'm planning on getting a blog article up about it in the next couple weeks. Enjoy the sneak peek.
