Time-lapse photography is a cinematography technique where the rate at which film frames are captured is much lower than that at which the sequence will be played back. In using this technique, I am manipulating time. Objects and events that would normally take minutes, days, hours, or months can be viewed to completion in seconds.
My time-lapse recording comprises 1200 frames taken over a period of about 40 minutes. When replayed, the viewer experiences the activity in a period of just 2 minutes. I chose to take numerous frames per activity and, on playback the time lapse photos could almost be a video taken in real-time. I took the oppourtunity to chose a topic in which the subject interacts very closely with their immediate enviroment, in effect a timelapse version of an enviromental portrait.
