Great tutorial.. but I'm still getting a flicker, not sure what I'm doing wrong.. any chance you can have a look, and see if its me or the program ;o) most likely me, but I have wasted a few hours on this already.
You guys are amazing! I've learnt so much watching all your videos ... Just started Timelapse using my Nikon D800e ... and found you on TH-cam. I was really lost and now after about a week I'm having sooooo much fun ! Thank you from Brussels !
I am learning a lot from you. Getting you guys is a lot easy. The way you talk is awesome fun to stay on your video and watch it till the end. I just recently jumped in timelapsing. I do landscape photography i am not that good at it but i am learning. Thanks to you guys i love doing timelapse.
Been shooting the milky way for a while now and plan to make a timelapse on my next shoot. Really enjoying your timelapse how-to videos. Thanks for sharing these!
Just got back from a road trip and now catching up on favorite YT channels. That was an awesome tutorial! I really appreciate how clearly the process is played out. Your channel has been very inspirational as I am trying to increase content quality on my channel. Thank you!
+Neversink Outdoors Hey, Thanks! To be honest, in the end the quality of the video is all about how much time you put into it. It's all a balance of how much time you want to spend making it look great. vs how many you put out. :)
nice video.. im trying to use luminar to edit my photos.. just cant find a stand alone software for creating timelapses.. could you recommend some please?
Thanks for showing us this. I'm starting to do timelapse of the Sun's surface using Autostakkert, Imppg, PixInsight, PIPP and PhotoDirector. One of the many hurdles has to do with flicker and shaking which I normalized in Pixinsight and stabilised in PIPP. But I think I may use your workflow and start also intergrading some zooming in movement effect. Very "to the point" video, I enjoyed it.
fantastic video guys. I always have a problem with jitter and that video stabilization and Ken burns effect is amazing and something I'll try next time lapse. can't wait to get out and shoot again!
Thank you SOOO much for making this video. It has helped me a great deal to get to grips with using LR Timelapse and Lightroom together. I was kind of guessing to begin with. I have really got the hang of it now. Once again you are a legend. I hope you dont mind but i download this video for my own personal use. Many thanks :)
+Let's Make A Video You can use the trial for time-lapses under 400 images though... that's pretty handy. Especially nice if you're not doing pro-work.
super helpful, Rob. Thanks. Hey, quick question if you happen to get this. I'm just getting geared up with a Dynamic Perception slider. I have to make a time-lapse for a client's site -been a photographer forever, but just now getting into video. What I'm wondering is, have you found any bulb ramping hardware that makes more sense than baby-ing a manually controlled time-lapse? In a certain way, bulb ramping seems more complicated than it does a time saver. And it's not clear to me that you wouldn't have to do a bunch of post anyhow. thoughts?
Hey Rob & Jonas, great vid. Quick ? about which version to get of LrTimelapse. Do I need the pro version or is the standard version ok to start off with? thanks for any input
+Plane Window Seat If you have Lightroom there is a feature called "spot removal". Super easy way to remove annoying dust spots. Do the same way as described before, do your fixes on one of the photos then sync with all the other pictures. Your corrections will then be applied to all shots you have. Have a go and let us know how it went! Good luck!
Thank you for advice. I've tried this already but it doesn't look good in final time lapse movie when clouds are present. Perhaps the other option would be to remove spots from every image separately or from batch of the images. This is time consuming though. I just wandered if there is any other method.
Love your videos. What is the purpose of exporting from FCPX then re-importing? Could you not have just done the stabilization and ken burns to the compound clip before exporting to the same effect? Looking forward to the answer, thanks!
I got confused with the 4k compound clip and the whole re importing it ! Totally lost me? I have not had an answer to this on the other habd I downloaded LRtimelapse and the guy who does all the stuff with this has mailed me a few times result! Very good follow up time and a nice person to boot
Since 4k videos can be scaled down to lower definition without sacrificing some details (i know sounds crazy). Yet, FCPX saves a lot of time in stabilizing.
also you can get some flicker even if you have everything set to manual if your aperture is closing every time the shot is taken, this is because it's a mechanical device that will be slightly different every time it closes, to avoid this you can either shoot wide open, or in live view
Hello thank you for the great video! All other filters are there but LRT5 Full sequence filter is missing in Lightroom? Do you know how to bring it back? Every time I export the time lapse is not in sequence. thank you :-)
Hi there I have just downloaded the free version of LRtimelapse and was wondering if you could stay in LRtimelapse to stabalise the clip? and why you take it into Final cut to do this Also I kind of got lost when you exported the 4K image then put it back into Finalcut etc Need to learn more
Great tutorial, thanks. Quite a long process, but very thorough. Is there a way of exporting the timelapse as a movie file direct from LR before you go through the long winded process in FCPX though? Good work.
Hi Rob... I have a quick question for you. How about long term time lapse? I have a project where the camera will be in situ for almost 4 months... Will these principles still apply? I was thinking about setting my camera to aperture priority as I am not going to be with it for all those months..?
great tutorial man, i did get rid the flickering thing but my problem is why is my final output is smoothly panning upwards can you help me with this? thank you so much :)
Hi I am Mohamed from Cairo and I have a question regarding how often should I adjust the exposure during shooting which will result in flickering my question is Which scenario does LRTimelapse fix better Scenario 1 I adjust exposure every 15 min (results in lots of small exposure jumps. Scenario 2 I adjust exposure every 2 hour (results in few big exposure jumps. Thanks
Hi Rob. I have seen all past tutorials on how to make and improve a time laps. In other videos you used adobe after effect but in this you used final cut pro and I think it is much easier to use. What you think is best? Also Adobe after effect also has a problem is not allowing me to render a video with H.264 in 4k or anything higher than 2000x2000 in H.264 so I had to use Apple ProRes 422 to export my time laps in 4k.
Need some super urgent help doing similar stuff with a Hyperlapse, any tips would be great! This is absolutely amazing though, been following it step by step.
I guess you could do something similar. It shouldn't change the process too much. Have you seen my Day to Night tutorial - It's another overview of LRTimelapse4 - th-cam.com/video/cYeWakYqmrw/w-d-xo.html
hey! I'm very like your video's it's inspired me every time. I love the art and the technical side. I live in Israel and started to Mike sum time lapse video.
Hi! I have a workflow question, regarding how to best combine the learning from this tutorial and from your previous timelapse tutorials. When using LRTimelapse in this video, you only manipulated the two keyframe images, and then let LRTimelapse do the rest of the work. Does this replace the step from your previous tutorial where you developed just one image from the middle of the sequence, and then let Lightroom sync the changes to the entire sequence? Or should one do this process of developing one image and syncing to the rest before moving on to LRTimelapse, choosing the keyframes and following the rest of the steps outlined in this tutorial? Thanks!
+Michael Coombes Good question. So, if you're using LRTimelapse, you have the ability to add some gradation to your timelapse. It does esentially replace that step - you're right. It's also a more advanced technique for sure. Most basic timelapses won't need this sort of manipulation, but it's especially useful in a) day to night time-lapses b) sunsets/sunrises and c) flickering timelapses. It takes more time going through LRTimelapse (although not bad once you figure it out). I don't use it for everything - but it does give a nice end result.
I'm wondering if you could recommend a editing App as I'm just starting out and I'm doing my editing on Samsung Tablet G3, most of the video is done with a Hero 3+ silver and with Samsung MX20 cam and the photos with Kodak Z981. I'm not trying to edit a masterpiece just projects around the house and family trips.
+GigantorsDAD - Hmm. I honestly don't know a good non-apple editing program for your tablet. imovie is pretty good but I don't know if you can download that on android.
I did exactly as you shown, except the Stabalizing in Final Cut Pro part. But, the flickering is still visible significantly. Any idea what could ge wrong? I have the free version of the LR Timelapse. Could it be the reason?
So Final Cut Pro's stablization removed the flickering? I was waiting for you to do the deflickering since you kept on mentioning through out the entire video that there is still flickering. However, after you stabilized it in Final Cut Pro, the flicker went away.
Stabilization only stabilizes the video. I think he just skipped the part where he have to deflicker it second round since it's already looking better than the first one. It's not perfect but you can try do the deflicker many times (in LRT) and see the results.
Amazing I don't have any Apple product but i understand what to do with After Effects, thanks again for this kind of tutorials. I hope that the giveaway was international, but if not, it was a pleasure to complete the survey.
+Federico Petrini - Oh, I can send it international - that shouldn't be a problem. Thanks for letting us know what you're up to Federico. It's been really helpful to read the responses so far!
Thank you very much, great tutorial! I was wondering, actually, can I do the same in Premiere? And can I remove flicker if I have been making a shot a day for 6 months. I was shooting RAW at the same time of day most of the time, but the weather was very different and I often had to adjust white balance settings. I tried to edit it as much as I could before assembling the final cut (in Premiere, not the best soft to edit time lapse, I know). Overall it's ok, demonstrating how there are sunny days and cloudy days throughout the year, if it could be made smoother, then it'd be great!
Great Question Anna. I'm not exactly sure. I'm hoping to do a tutorial on something like this in the future, but for now, I'm not sure how you'd deflicker it. There are some plugins that do a decent job too. This being one of them: revisionfx.com/products/deflicker/fcp/
Thanks for the vid, it was a great help for me to get my workflow right! I would also like to share an interesting experience that is worth knowing of. When I started doing time lapses, I had no idea about LRTimelapse and hence binned so many gigabytes of photos because of flickering.. The strange thing was that I had FLICKERING even when I was in FULLY MANUAL! then I started to play around and found that when I start removing my lens then the aperture also starts closing so I did a time lapse with the lens being semi-detached and voila, there was no flickering at all! The reason for this is most likely the fact that the electronics of the camera (or the lens) cannot always set the same aperture 100% accurately, but rather 99.99% accurately and that causes flickering (experienced on Sony A57 and Canon 650D too, maybe higher-end cameras do not do it...) But this workflow is just pure gold and no need to fiddle around with half-removing the lens!
Hi Rob, can LR lapse be used without Lightroom or is there a workflow to go around using Lightroom? I use Capture One and so far I don't think LR lapse is compatible with Capture One
help!!! what if the it is a morning to evening timelapse and the whether and light conditions change at all times?? Can i set the camera in Aperture priority so that it is always exposed correcntly? Thanks
If youre still on TH-cam, Just curious how much RAM and storage you had available or of your computer had Lightroom loaded on and SSD, it runs soooooooooo much faster than my HP laptop with 8gb ram :(
Great run through of the softwar. Something we've found is that you can reduce a fair amount of flicker in the initial shooting stage, though LRTimelapse is invaluable. Some of the flicker can be caused by small mechanical variations in the shutterspeed. These variations are in absolute measures so as an example a variation of 1/10,000 of a second is a much larger percent variation of 1/1,000 of a second than of 1/100 of a second. That means a shutter speed of 1/10000 will see more noticeable flicker than 1/100. So use a slower shutterspeed (ND Filters are handy for this). The aperture also changes between each frame so a wider aperture will mean the variations are smaller on a percent basis. Here's an article that explains this in a much clearer manner: www.diyphotography.net/preventing-time-lapse-flicker-caused-mechanical-inconsistencies/
+TravelingMel Interesting. That makes good sense. It's always better to try and not have the flicker by doing things in the field that make the images better. I've never had huge problems when I'm in manual modes, but for the perfectionist, I think you're right those adjustments would help. Thanks for sharing Henry!
i believe this one in video caused cuz of electronic aperture as he shows aperture drops f10 to f9, there are videos about these problems also. Manual lenses best way to go :D
Awesome Tutorial will share it with my Father who's asking me to teach him on how to do time Lapse video! (Hope It helps him ;) ) I use an old 550D running Magic Lantern would be nice to see someone nut out and make some Tutorials on how to use some of the advanced features built into this camera software!! eg ramping and Focus racking ETC. I use LRTimelapse myself and have picked up so tips Thanks :)
Ya know I'm having an issue where when I Drag to Lightrooom it pulls up the folder on my desktop and won't allow me to take the steps you are following or that are outlined in LRTL.... Any ideas how to avoid this? I tried deleting the folder from LR but it still finds the folder on the desktop.
+Fixed Focus Media Hmm. The trick is to start in LRTL. I've had some problems if I play with it in LR first. Try moving that folder around and renaming both it and the photos. Also, make sure the folder is deleted from LR. If that doesn't work, I'm not sure where to start.
I don't know how to do it without LRtimelapse. They do have a free version though - I think you can use 400 still frames, which is something like 13 seconds of video. That should be enough for most people.
There should be a solution for video already in video mode. It still has frames. I do timelapse that goes straight to video from a weatherproof rugged action cam. It inherently avoids problems expensive SLRS have in auto modes. But the extreme environmental light level goes dramatically up and down as clouds move across the sun (bright/dim/bright/dim) and so the camera assumes it's data I want. It's not really an artifact. It's natural, but too fast (this is Florida near the coast with little puff after little puff of small, dense, sun-eclipsing clouds that last seconds in real life. If some software would simply average and smooth out brightness levels from frame to frame then it would fade brighter and darker smoothly instead of strobing.

how you want to keep manual setting for sunrise/sunset? there is about 3EV difference
Guys, would you please help me to have a licensed LRtimelapse? I cannot file a descent one online due to country's website restriction. Hope you bump me a friendly link. Thank you!
Great tutorial.. but I'm still getting a flicker, not sure what I'm doing wrong.. any chance you can have a look, and see if its me or the program ;o) most likely me, but I have wasted a few hours on this already.
Do you have a spot in the frame that doesn't seem to change exposure - that was the key in this one!
Oh shoot totally forgot that part.. sorry trying to meet a deadline so rushed past that. Let me have a look and give that a go.. Thanx..!
Your a legend.. helps when you don't skim through ;o) its come out much better, not entirely gone but certainly 100 times better thank you..!
YES!!! GLAD THAT HELPED. I'm pinning this comment just incase it happens with others.
Its pretty straight forward if you don't skip any parts of the tutorial.. ha..ha..ha
You are literally starting my post retirement life. Your instruction is second to none. Thank You Much!!!

Thanks for showing us this. I'm starting to do timelapse of the Sun's surface using Autostakkert, Imppg, PixInsight, PIPP and PhotoDirector. One of the many hurdles has to do with flicker and shaking which I normalized in Pixinsight and stabilised in PIPP. But I think I may use your workflow and start also intergrading some zooming in movement effect. Very "to the point" video, I enjoyed it.

Hoping to do a timelapse in Bangkok next month and those tips are priceless.
Awesome tutorial..new to the whole timelapse thing.. this will come in handy! Added to Favorites!
Not gonna lie, this tutorial was much easier to understand than the official LRTimelapse's tutorials.
Wow, that's really involved. I'm wanting to start trying my hand at time lapses and short travel videos. Thanks for the tutorials. Keep it up.
+Mark Kaiser Thanks! Good luck with your Timelapses
Fantastic. Great tutorial. LRTimelapse is a bit pricey for me but it is something to bear in mind. Thank you

WOW, great tip again, Thank-you for this job, I've responded to the form.
Thumbs up.
Awesome! Thanks. We are drawing it today... Stay tuned.
Thank you for the tips!
Exporting files from lightroom in jpeg makes it compressed right ? why not in a TIFF or DNG format so that we could preserve the quality for later ?
So Final Cut Pro's stablization removed the flickering? I was waiting for you to do the deflickering since you kept on mentioning through out the entire video that there is still flickering. However, after you stabilized it in Final Cut Pro, the flicker went away.
Stabilization only stabilizes the video. I think he just skipped the part where he have to deflicker it second round since it's already looking better than the first one. It's not perfect but you can try do the deflicker many times (in LRT) and see the results.

dude well done. nice tutorial!
are you from Sweden gothenburg ? If so are you doing any video work here or only as a hobby ? : )
hello, want to ask do i need to do deflicker process if i'm shooting the photos in M mode.
Awesome Tutorial!!!!!!!!!!
I know loads of ppl probably already asked; but what is the best interval between pictures to obtain best results for time laps like this one???
2 seconds is s good start...but it depends on your clouds.
+Rob & Jonas' Filmmaking Tips so if the clouds move slower up it to 5 seconds???
+Kris Hog exactly
I love the music what track is it?
So I should skip the timelapse option in my camera and just go for interval shooting?
The timelapse option makes it easy but the interval shooting option will ultimately give you a better timelapse. It does take longer.
@@UntamedScience thanks!
In camera timelapse function is just for beginners shoot raw by interval to get the best footage for postproduction
Thanks for the info. My T.L.
I took in Moab appeared much smoother.
Awesome result
Great run through of the softwar. Something we've found is that you can reduce a fair amount of flicker in the initial shooting stage, though LRTimelapse is invaluable.
Some of the flicker can be caused by small mechanical variations in the shutterspeed. These variations are in absolute measures so as an example a variation of 1/10,000 of a second is a much larger percent variation of 1/1,000 of a second than of 1/100 of a second. That means a shutter speed of 1/10000 will see more noticeable flicker than 1/100. So use a slower shutterspeed (ND Filters are handy for this). The aperture also changes between each frame so a wider aperture will mean the variations are smaller on a percent basis. Here's an article that explains this in a much clearer manner: www.diyphotography.net/preventing-time-lapse-flicker-caused-mechanical-inconsistencies/
+TravelingMel Interesting. That makes good sense. It's always better to try and not have the flicker by doing things in the field that make the images better. I've never had huge problems when I'm in manual modes, but for the perfectionist, I think you're right those adjustments would help. Thanks for sharing Henry!
i believe this one in video caused cuz of electronic aperture as he shows aperture drops f10 to f9, there are videos about these problems also. Manual lenses best way to go :D
Awesome Tutorial will share it with my Father who's asking me to teach him on how to do time Lapse video! (Hope It helps him ;) ) I use an
old 550D running Magic Lantern would be nice to see someone nut out and make some Tutorials on how to use some of the advanced features built into this camera software!! eg ramping and Focus racking ETC.
I use LRTimelapse myself and have picked up so tips Thanks :)
wonderful... great... thanks for the tutorial... really helpful!!!!!
Great video, thanks
This is what I need~ Thank you!
Ya know I'm having an issue where when I Drag to Lightrooom it pulls up the folder on my desktop and won't allow me to take the steps you are following or that are outlined in LRTL.... Any ideas how to avoid this? I tried deleting the folder from LR but it still finds the folder on the desktop.
And by the way I love your tutorials. Best I've found yet.
+Fixed Focus Media Hmm. The trick is to start in LRTL. I've had some problems if I play with it in LR first. Try moving that folder around and renaming both it and the photos. Also, make sure the folder is deleted from LR. If that doesn't work, I'm not sure where to start.
Osmo, talk about the osmo camera system, cheers.
Hi guys! Is it possible to deflicker a video without LR timelapse? I can't get it =S
I don't know how to do it without LRtimelapse. They do have a free version though - I think you can use 400 still frames, which is something like 13 seconds of video. That should be enough for most people.
Amazing!! Thank you so much and great job ;)
What is the background music?
Great tips, Thanks :)
Nice tutorial.
your lightroom is so fast :( what kind of mac you are using ? #JustJealousThings
+Eren Alkan :) - for the sake of the tutorial, I speed up those sections :) I do have a fast machine, but the lightroom processing is slow...
+Rob & Jonas' Filmmaking Tips i feel much better 😂 :)))
thx! funnyi post my timelaps lastnight ;) i SHOULD saw your video first! thx!
There should be a solution for video already in video mode. It still has frames. I do timelapse that goes straight to video from a weatherproof rugged action cam. It inherently avoids problems expensive SLRS have in auto modes. But the extreme environmental light level goes dramatically up and down as clouds move across the sun (bright/dim/bright/dim) and so the camera assumes it's data I want. It's not really an artifact. It's natural, but too fast (this is Florida near the coast with little puff after little puff of small, dense, sun-eclipsing clouds that last seconds in real life. If some software would simply average and smooth out brightness levels from frame to frame then it would fade brighter and darker smoothly instead of strobing.
how you want to keep manual setting for sunrise/sunset?
there is about 3EV difference
use manual mode and change the parameters manually use lrt holy grail to process
Magnífico tutorial !!!
Thank you !
Guys, would you please help me to have a licensed LRtimelapse? I cannot file a descent one online due to country's website restriction. Hope you bump me a friendly link. Thank you!
I think you can get a trial version - right? Should do about 400 images (a 13-second timelapse). Should be plenty for what you need.
Exactly, however I cannot manipulate further post processing. Stocked at 1080p.
Amazing. Wonderful...
But what if I have an already made up time-lapse video with the mobile phone...how do I deflicker that?
It helps me very much
Thank You
thank you very much
I just did a night timelapse with my drone and its all set to manual and its flickering like crazy
Thanks man ;)
It seems everyone uses Lightroom. Any way of not getting flicker without Lightroom?
Nice video
lol "Ken Burns" effect. I love it.
