The hyper-lapse. It’s that super cool time-lapse video sequence that conveys speed, the passage of time, and even focuses the eyes on a single subject.
However, if you need to repeat the time-lapse over and over with motion control, a computer-controlled dolly can be a valuable tool. That’s what HYPERDOLLY is designed to do.
HYPERDOLLY“The concept is simple, yet powerful,” reads the copy on the HYPERDOLLY site. ”Unlike traditional motion control systems, such as sliders, HYPERDOLLY has unlimited path length and the ability to move in an arc to create eye-catching footage.”
This is what makes HYPERDOLLY stand out over other motion control systems. Since it's based on a wheeled design, the motorized dolly can travel further and hopefully via a non-linear path. The compositions this opens up to time-lapse creators are exciting to think about.
