This is the gear I have been using for my timelapse and movie shooting the last couple of months. I really like the Primus AW backpack as I can fit all my camera gear in it + water and food!

I’ve been asked to create a music video for Vertigo Steps and their forthcoming album called “surface / light”. This work is coming along nicely and I’m hoping to have the video finished sometime next month.

Here are some screenshots from the upcoming timelapse:

Things I’ve learned after doing the above:
1. Make sure your tripod is 100% steady! Wind did affect my first test here and that is not desirable.
2. Do not use auto exposure. Use manual exposure so that your shots all have the same lightning conditions.
3. If possible try not to point the camera directly into sunlight. The above video became a bit too dark because i had the lens almost pointed directly into sunlight.

I used a Hähnel Giga T Pro for the interval timing of 5 seconds between the shots. I then used Quicktime Pro for putting the shots together at 24fps.

Here is a good tutorial on the subject:
