Bring Long-Term Progress to Life

What is Time Lapse Video and How Does it Work?

Time lapse video condenses long-term activity into short, engaging clips that show clear progression from start to finish. Cameras capture high-quality images at set intervals, which are then stitched into a smooth, continuous video.

This process creates a visual record of how your project develops. It is ideal for reporting, marketing or internal comms.

Key Features of Time Lapse Video:

  • High-resolution images taken automatically at regular intervals
  • Fixed camera angle to maintain visual consistency
  • Entire project compressed into a short, watchable format
  • Shows progress clearly and objectively without disrupting work
  • Popular across industries for tracking and sharing project milestones

Time lapse helps turn visible progress into compelling, shareable content that supports stakeholder reporting, team engagement, and long-term project marketing.
