Haha I've actually been tempted to get a second hand canon point and shoot to do exactly that. I've made a rotating tripod mount but it won't support a DSLR. ┌─────┐ │ │ │ ┌─┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─┘ │ │ │ │ ┌─┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─┘ └─┘

We were talking about a rotating mount with a stepper motor, and put it on the roof timed to follow the sun so that it's always in the same place in the frame.

I have done these 2.

But they are a bit of a con. I just upped the frame rate of the video taken. The first one was in HD. I then rendered in SD with a pan/zoom added.

That's cool.

this is the best one I've managed so far:

I think the direction the clouds are moving is really important, side to side doesn't look so impressive as towards/away from the camera.

Yeah, AE is more for compositing. You could do time-lapse in it, I guess, but it's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. And a pretty awkward sledgehammer at that. bastard by name, bastard by nature

Yeah, definitely not the right tool.

I'd like to learn to use it a bit to even just add simple text overlays to things.

it's very easy to use to do that, although you'd be barely scraping the feature set - most video editors let you do that already built in.

Yeah, definitely very basic. With a few swooshy in out things of text. Nothing fancy. ┌─────┐ │ │ │ ┌─┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─┘ │ │ │ │ ┌─┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─┘ └─┘

Indeed. Any suggestions?

I always end up going back to whatever I've got installed from Adobe CS because half of the editors out there seem completely shit, or can't handle HD/H264 properly. Or maybe I haven't looked into this enough.

Unfortunately (for you, not me), I use FCP, so that doesn't help. But any of the main Windows competition (Premiere, Vegas etc) should have demo or laddish versions to play with. bastard by name, bastard by nature

Did you deliberately pan around a bit?

I'm planning on doing something similar when I go on a road trip to Germany in July.

Only at one bit, the rest is down to the camera not being mounted on anything and occasionally having to be pushed back into position :$
