Timelapses are one of the easiest ways to do video Timelapses are one of the easiest ways to do video. Even boring things look good sped-up! Here's some tips: 📍 Use an app. I use the free app Hyperlapse by Instagram for iOS. There's a very similar version for Android by Microsoft. Both record sped-up video AND stabilise it. You can change the speed after you've recorded it - you can't do this with the built-in timelapse on your phone. 📍 Frame the background nicely just as you would for a photo. Avoid bins or huge signs. 📍Use a tripod for longer timelapses if you can like a sunset. Or prop your phone up securely. 📍If you're using your phone with no tripod, hold the phone with both hands. And bring your elbows in to your body to add stability. 📍Film people from up high so they look like ants scurrying about. 🐜 * * * * * #timelapsevideo #timelapses #timelapseoftheday #hyperlapse #hyperlapsevideo #instagramforbusiness #instagramforbusinesses #instagramforsmallbusiness #instagramhacks #instagramtips #instagramtips10 #instagramtipsandhacks #instagramtipsandtricks #instagramtipsdaily #instagramtipsforbusiness #instagramtipsformarketers #reelsinsta #reelsofinstagram #reelsvideo❤️ #reelsvideos #thegramgang
I've been coming to this lovely place since my old I've been coming to this lovely place since my oldest son was a baby. He's soon to turn 18. 😲 So many memories associated with a visit to @burtonagneshall. I visited with one of my closest friends and it was the first day I had hugged her since February 2020. 💜 I added in some time lapses as promised in my stories! I used a @djiglobal Gimble to stabilise them. Was quite pleased at my first go. Editing & music by @capcutapp - my first time after @videosundifficulted recommended it! 👍🏻 * * * * * #appaddict #appy #createvisuals #visualcontent #visualcontentcreator #visualstoryteller #visualstorytellers #visualstorytelling #contentcreator #creativebusiness #creativebusinesses #creativebusinessowner #creativebusinessowners #creativebusinesswomen #hurrahforplay #mycreativelife #thegramgang #burtonagneshall #driffield #eastyorkshire #yorkshirelife #hullphotographer #mobilevideography #mobilevideo
I used two of my Top 1️⃣0️⃣ apps to make t I used two of my Top 1️⃣0️⃣ apps to make this video. Hyperlapse & @imgplay. Want to know my other top apps? Read my blog! 🔗link is in my bio!🔗 *️⃣How I made this video *️⃣ 1️⃣I recorded my sister, kids & dog walking in the magnificent grounds of @burtonconstablehall during half term. 2️⃣It's so much more fun when you record video sped up! I used the free app Hyperlapse by Instagram for iOS. There's a very similar version for Android by Microsoft. Both record sped-up video AND stabilise it. You can change the speed after you've recorded it. 3️⃣ I used @imgplay to add the border & background. I put the video into a square canvas, choose the Polaroid-style border & the background. 4️⃣ Because I paid for ImgPlay, I could use my brand font for the text. <smug> But there are loads of free fonts. 5️⃣ I saved it as a video which loops twice. ImgPlay can save as a video (mov or mp4) OR a gif. I 💜both apps! I use them all the time & have done for YEARS. 🔗 Find out my other Top 10 apps - link to the blog is in my bio! 🔗 * * * * * #hyperlapsevideo #hyperlapse #hyperlapseapp #imgplay #burtonconstablehall #appaddict #appy #createvisuals #diydesign #editingphoto #editingphotos #visualcontent #visualcontentcreator #visualcontentmarketing #visualstoryteller #visualstorytellers #visualstorytelling #contentcreator #creativebusinesswomen #CreativeEntrepreneur #designtips #favouriteapp #hurrahforplay #instagraminspiration #mycreativecommunity #thegramcreative #thegramgang #instagramforbusiness #instagramforbusinesses #instagramforsmallbusiness
