Customized time lapse photography

Are you a photographer that shoots time-lapse sequences with your digital still camera? Is the footage outstanding and you're looking for a market for your work? If so, we'd love to see it.

At TimeLapse Digital we believe that digital still cameras are revolutionizing the timelapse field. The resolution and qualtity of these cameras rival 35mm so why would you want to tie up a movie camera or setttle for the lower resolutions of video when you can capture breathtaking sequences with a variety of digital still cameras.

We're looking for all kinds of timelapse from all regions of North America and beyond. Don't be concerned that your footage doesn't fit one of our categories; Timelapse Digital's site is continually growing and we'll expand our catergories to fit your footage.

Here are the general guidelines:

•Footage needs to be shot on a 5 megapixel or larger camera, unless the footage is exceptionally interesting or rare. Your images must be shot at the highest quality JPEG that your camera can produce or RAW and the resolution must be greater than 1920 by 1080 so that the footage can be marketed to the high definition market.

•The footage must be shot on a tripod, motion control rig or camera mount if the shot is moving on a vehicle, etc. Your footage must be rock solid, beautifully composed and properly exposed.

•You have to have the full legal right to license it as stock footage.

•Close-ups of people don't typically make for interesting time-lapse subjects and should be avoided. However, if any person is recognizable in the sequence we require that signed releases from all recognizable persons appearing in the footage be kept on file in our offices.

•To submit your footage you can either generate high qualtity quicktimes and put them on disk or submit folders of images that we can turn into sequences for evaluation. This must be done at your expense but we will return your submission if requested. Or let us know when you've got a demo sequence ready for viewing and we'll give you access to our FTPsite to upload.

•If your footage is accepted you will earn royalties everytime your clips are sold. We do a 50/50 split with our contributors, paying promptly when the customers pays their invoice.
