Karen and John have breakfast

80 minutes of our Saturday relaxed morning breakfast ritual compressed down into 2 minutes of frenzied action, with some gentle (Creative Commons-licensed) guitar from Kevin MacLeod.

After the “11 days, 33 meals” project, you’re probably thinking I’ve got a fixation about mealtimes. You’re probably right!

If you’re interested in this sort of thing, the time lapse video was made with:

  • Canon 5D Mk II set to fine small JPG (2784 x 1856 pixels), aperture priority (f/11), 400 ISO 
  • Canon TC80-N3 intervalometer, set to take one exposure every 5 seconds (942 images in total)
  • After Effects 5.5 to compile the slideshow
  • Premiere Pro 5.5 to edit video, add opening and closing title

I know almost nothing about the two Adobe products, and I am finding  the technology VERY confusing (why can’t they be simple like Photoshop?!) But I’m determined to persevere (I’ve found some really useful tutorial videos at the Adobe TV and Creative Cow web sites)
