BikeCam, the other way
Filed under: Uncategorized. Tags: bike, photography, video.
This BikeCam slideshow is the other way, both in direction and technique. I stuck the camera on the handlebars for the ride home, and used QuickTime Pro’s “Open Image Sequence…” feature to build a movie at 2fps automagically. That took maybe 5 minutes, including the resized export of all images from Aperture. That was muuuuch easier/quicker than the way I built the last one (using iMovie – that was pretty easy, but this was just pointing QuickTime at a directory and exporting the result). Easy peasy.

Update: made a new version of the video, with a soundtrack. Rise and Fall, by Sylvie (couldn’t find a link!)
But no music. Shame. That was half the fun!
Glad you didn’t thrash your camera on the way. Thanks for the good fun!

Yeah. I’ll take it into GarageBand or iMovie to add a soundtrack – just wanted to see how quickly I could convert it to video in some (very short) downtime before supper. I’ll work up a better version after The Boyâ„¢ goes to bed…
D’Arcy,
Iphoto will do this for you as well- just make slideshow- you can even add the “Ken Burns effect”-
really easy. Music too.
iPhoto? What’s that?
I haven’t touched iPhoto since December 2006…
arrogant aperture users- I swear….
just do it the hardway D’Arcy.
And- btw- how are you triggering the camera? Is it doing a standard interval- or are you clicking it yourself?
