1.  Basic Time-Lapse Videography

With the basic time-lapse shot, you’ll have the camera and settings fixed for this shoot. The concept is to capture the scene over a period of time so that footage may be shown over time. This footage while not particularly special is a helpful tool for capturing moving traffic, shadows, clouds, and more. 

2.  Hyperlapse Videography

Hyperlapse videography is a more technical style of Elizabeth time-lapse videography but the end result is a “hyper” look for your videos that can be quite exciting when it’s done well. Some of the most amazing scenes you’ve seen in film are done with this type of hyperlapse filming. The technique is done by pointing the camera at a specific focal point, regardless of the surroundings and the end result is frames that look very similar, even though the camera has been shifted from point to point.  

3.  Plant Timelapse Videography

Just like it sounds, plant time-lapse videography is a technique that captures plant growth over time. By dedicating your camera for a specific period of several weeks, you’ll get the kind of time-lapse plant growth that you want.

5.  Aerial Hyperlapse

This is a term used to describe time-lapse photography that captures shots from the air, whether form a drone, airplane, or helicopter. Aerial hyperlapse uses shots that are done through filming a specific point and its surroundings while the camera is set in one position but changing perspective due to the plane or drone being in flight. 

6. Astro Timelapse

Filmed at night from a dark spot, the astro timelapse is one of several types of time-lapse videography that is used to capture astronomical scenes. This timelapse is also sometimes referred to as astrophotography or astrovideography.
