Time Lapse Clouds
Yes, a time lapse video of clouds is a cliche, but this was more a proof of concept than anything else.
I couldn't figure out how to get iMovie '08 to do this, but it turned out to be easy in iMovie '06.
It was recorded on my parents' back porch while some yard work was going on. With trees & rooflines, this was about the only angle I could come up with to get a tripod view of the sky for a while, hence the umbrella at the lower right, and the edge of the roof at the left.
The original video was ~40 minutes long, which two rounds of acceleration got down to 1:40, which I was then able to clip to 1:30 for Flickr limits.
I like the way the audio turned from ordinary conversation, TV noise from inside the house, etc, into a kind of mechanical clatter.
(I'd love to know what I did that made Flickr think this should be letterboxed, but then not really, so it has the vertical bars at the sides. Oops.)
