How to film GoPro SUNRISE Timelapses - Tutorial (Works for HERO 8)

[@Piccollo89er]

God bless the Time Lapse guy....total dedication in sub-zero temps....blessings from India...!!!

[@MRjimbobBIG]

Not wearing gloves in order to use the camera equipment, true dedication to the channel right there folks!

[@guyhenry3047]

He needs the Hero 6 with voice commands.... Brrrr!

[@freakinpro]

Guy Henry hero5 has voice commands

[@HeathifyMyLife]

How do you activate the voice commands on the 5 please?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

Swipe down on screen. Then there is a symbol on the top right corner with a head. Press there ;)

[@KraKer871]

glad to see a romanian guy filming the sunrise in Denmark :)Love the vid u made about the settings for a timelaps with a gopro, really helpful !Keep up the good work !

[@zak3159]

I like that you take pride in your country. I have a lot of quick moving clouds here in Seattle, Wa. I think I’ll use 2 second intervals 🤘🏻.

[@joseluisbaez7995]

Did you made color correction in the photos?

[@jasonclift7253]

Nicely done - I will be on Pike's Peak next month and wanted to get some ideas for great sunrise and sunset timelapses - love the app!

[@dontmissthelittlethings]

Great information. Would there be less editing with time-lapse video?

[@vicenteantunes9998]

Thank you! I'm going to make a similar video in Buzios - Brazil ( but here you can jump in the water after finish)

[@theaussiebush]

Just got my Hero 7 and did the moon setting... wish I saw this first but great info for my next video!

[@jajajaja214]

how did you do it?, I am still learning

[@nikkiboyzopicar6872]

What’s your settings if you’re not going to edit your GoPro shots??? This is going to be helpful for all the noobs like me.. 🙏 thank you.

[@hitracing3862]

NikkiBoy Zopicar I’m still in the noob category myself. But I would just put EV comp at -0.5 and leave the GoPro color profile, instead of switching to flat.

[@simonroberts362]

That was awesome man👍 Buying my first GoPro (hero6) later this year on a holiday to the USA, I’m definitely gonna give that a try.

[@sophiavaroujanian]

Can you make a video on how to edit a photo time lapse on the Quik GoPro app. It would be loots of help. Please.

[@smlinkmedia7867]

Just uploaded my first gorpo video! No where as good as this one but watching these inspired me to make a channel and start filming!

[@tastyappreciation6751]

What's the settings for gopro hero 4 black for filming sunrise? thanks

[@JayWadeOnline]

I just got back from Denmark so I understand EXACTLY how cold it was haha! Nice video thanks for the explaination!

[@HeathifyMyLife]

Jay Wade That is not feeling your hands anymore when handlings the Gopro 😬

[@adrianh2502]

Great video. I just bought a hero 5 and I’m wanting to try time lapse recording. Any recommendations on video editing software? I’m not a professional, so the easier the better.

[@MallelaGBRS]

Awesome taking bro!!!! thoroughly loved it

[@sanathu1]

Thank you for video, it would have been nice if you showed the the final edited version of the time lapse video of sun rise at the end of this video. However enjoyed it

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

Check 6:27 ...

[@carlospagaza]

Amazing, I have a question, did you have to change battery during the session? How long does it last? Thanks

[@dgillespie13]

B&H photo supply has some great photo gloves where the tip of the thumb and first finger folds back when you need to touch. Check them out.

[@tony-gr1gb]

Which tripod is the one you use in the video? ...thanks for sharing your knowledge !

[@janardhand6200]

Bro which format and pixel that you recorded, which software that you used for editing?

[@chasethenomad7498]

A couple questions. Great video by the way. I see that you used the sand to hold your tripod in place. When that's not an option what do you use? Sandbags? Also what other camera did you use for the shoot/ vlog?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

I always managed to get a safe stand for my tripod. Sometimes I use a Gorilla Pod instead of the normal tripod to attach the Camera to e.g. a stick of a tree. For the vlog I use a Sony a6000 with a SEL35F18 lens.

[@angelaxu698]

So cool!! May I ask did you use any filter?

[@theociba2781]

Informative video, thanks for making. I am new to go pro (1 week) - have you ever recorded time-lapse using 60-second intervals, and was there a benefit? I used it inside for 2 hours, and the playback seemed very fast.

[@jorgezuluaga-zuluman3883]

Great video...how much time before the sunrise did you start to shoot?

[@RommeBech]

The danish home's are great isn't they?

[@zolti22]

GoPro 6 was leaked recently. I have GoPro 4 Silver, which I mostly use for timelapses while I travel. Do you think it worth to upgrade to the newly versions, just for timelapses, or not? Thank you!

[@chrisroach8385]

What did you use to film this ? Looks like a low aperture of 1.4 or 1.2 ?? Nice time lapse by the way !

[@JefferyEudy]

What is the name of the song you are using here? I love it!

[@Jimmytwogunz]

+The TIMELAPSE Guy Hi, what settings would you use to capture a lighting storm ? Thanks

[@federicoaguirre3006]

Hi! Great info!! I own a Gopro Hero5 and I have a simple question: if I want to make a sunset timelapse of a city then go on with a nightlapse of the same shot, How do I do to film both timelapses? should I change settings ( from timelapse photo to nightlapse photo) in the right moment ( the moment when sky becomes dark enought ) in order to capture both day and night lapse? Or is it posible to capture day and night lapse with just one configurarion? thanks hope you guys help me here cheers

[@YouBDub]

Are you using any filter for the GoPro?

[@yeahyeahnatnat]

Do you always set ISO min/max 100 for sunrise? and if I dn't edit my photos do you recommend me using Gopro color and high or medium sharpness instead? Since I have just got my gopro, and i've never tried photo editing before, I guess I'm just gonna create a simple photo timelapse for the start

[@AlexandreFPV]

wow the final is so beautiful !

[@Bob-fu1hn]

New of using gopro5. Did you start recording while waiting for sunrise? How many gb did you use for Micro sd card?

[@johnnichol1379]

Great video! One question I have is what quality did you use?

[@michaelcasino8517]

great video. what about using dslr like nikon or fuji? what will be video settings? thanks

[@oneeyedphotographer]

Depends on the specific camera. Some can do "time-lapse video," some have a built in intervalometer. You can always use an external intervalometer and process the images later in Capture One and DaVinci Resolve.

[@Piccollo89er]

...just 1 question , i use the HERO 2018 and timelapse is defaulted at 0.5x and it sucks i am not allowed to change the settings on it...so wonder if those are changeable on HERO 5, 6 AND now 7 Black s ?? ☺️

[@trx420fm1]

What is your reasoning for putting your white balance on auto? Instead of 5500k? have you taken the shot with different WB settings like 6000k,5500k,or 5000k and compared the difference?

[@MattVHulst]

Hi Alex. Love your videos. They really help beginners like me our. Can I ask what program you use to edit these shots?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

+mjvhulst I use Lightroom and LRTimelapse for the editing of the single timelapse-clips and Final Cut Pro X for editing the whole video :)

[@ONAIRwithDYLAN]

I've become a fan of your videos! Thank you

[@bammaron]

where is here??? i'm around bdlgs almost. i wish doing this video too. thanks video.

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

This was next to Hvide Sande in Denmark :)

[@bammaron]

@@TheTimelapseGuy wow~!! great reply. thank you so much.

[@001Elpato]

hey man thx for sharing the settings and setup, quick question for how long do you shoot this kind of time lapse and can you do it on 1 battery life if it's fully charged?

[@kaelchuquipoma6441]

Hello, How did the battery last?

[@vdmarame]

Hello, how much editing di you have to do on your video? Thank you for the tips.

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

It is a lot :) I made some videos showing my time lapse editing. Check them out on my channel

[@johnarellano5999]

Runnn! Get to the choppaa!! Love your video, man and your accent 😊👍🏼🤣

[@kunal2107]

Awesome video. I was jealous at one point where u said u are feeling alive,😀. Awesome place. I'm planning to buy one myself just concerned with the battery life.

[@ivettenatalia96]

Cool video. I would like to ask, how many hours did you wait to get all the footage? Did the battery drained? My GoPros battery draines so fast

[@zaheraldik5016]

Thanks , just wondering why did not you use the video mode rather than picture mode

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

I need single photos for my postprocessing. It’s way easier to colorgrade photos than videos

[@DavidMDElias]

Great commitment, dedication and determination. Thank you so much... great footage. 👍👍👍😁

[@thomaskane2096]

What I'm trying to figure out when do you use what setting. Why time lapse photo as compared to time warp, night lapse, or time lapse video?

[@friendlygiant8639]

Time warp if you are moving ( When you drive in a car, or run or whatever ) Timelapse photo I dont really know..😅 maybe for the highway or German Autobahn, the nightlapse video for the night ( it need to stand still otherwise it will look like shit, nightlapse/nightfoto so you can see the stars at the horizon, the normale timelapse just for the day ( in the evening you wont see anything ) Hope I didn't told you wrong

[@flygwada971]

Nice tutorial. Is it a special tripod for GoPro you have?

[@Miseryblooding]

where can i find the settings to take photo in 16:9 aspect ??? in night timelapse settings i don't find anything about 16:9 or 4:3.....and all my timelapse videos on youtube have two horrible black bands!

[@physiolympha]

in post production at what speed is the timelapse playing? i.e. for how long does a photo play or how many Frames per second are showing? did you record it in 2 or 5 seconds eventually? Found yours to be much smoother than what I usually get from timelapses, how please?

[@minhnguyen5888]

you will get good result for sunrise and sunset with 5 secs interval, the speed and duration really depend on your personal taste, I would recommend you to export the file in 60 frames after editing

[@physiolympha]

but at 60fps for a 5 second interval I saw that it's playing too fast?

[@ThompsononTour]

Great video thanks, but I feel so cold now 🤣🤣 , thanks for the tips 🙏🙏🙏.

[@ceg3909]

Can you please tell me about your tripod because im looking one

[@balilaavihay]

how long it took you to shoot the entire time lapse? an hour? 2?

[@rupakgandhi6175]

@thetimelapsguy... which one I should go for hero 5 black or hero 7 silver. Considering they are within my budget.

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

Definitely 7! I sold my 5er immediately

[@johnarellano5999]

I loved your video! You’re like the Terminator of Time lapse!! 👍🏼😂

[@willgab7477]

[@mohammedtahakhaif4437]

[@donghoonchoi5731]

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

+donghoon choi the app shown in the beginning ist called "PhotoPills"

[@sandermolder7575]

This might be a stupid question, however, I hope someone can help me out with this one: Is there a difference in battery life between timelapse photo and video mode? I live in a Nordic country and therefore our climate is quite chilly during the winter. When I'm shooting outside, my HERO4's Black battery dies like really fast. Especially when I'm am trying to do timelapse. Are there any tips how to increase the battery life without the battery BacPac? Many thanks ahead! :) PS: Great location and video! Greetings from Estonia.

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

+Sander Mölder hello Sander! Apparently I can't tell you if there is a difference between those two modes. However, have you tried to keep the camera isolated? Like put it in warm clothes or warm it externally?

[@sandermolder7575]

Alright, thank you very much anyway! I actually have not tried to keep the camera isolated, it is worth trying out. Maybe to even build some kind of heater box or something like that...thank you for your advice. Keep up the tutorials, they come in handy! :)

[@necrom66]

Thanks for making this easy to understand and set up instruction are AWESOME new Subscriber

[@brunobernabei909]

I have a question hopefully you can answer, n my new GoPro hero session I want to do a time lapse because I can't figure out how, would you know how?

[@ronlozada6235]

Nice video man. What tripod are you using for your GoPro?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

I am using the Togopod Max Tripod.

[@DjPositiveP]

thanks for the video! how long do you do your time lapse for?

[@malinisandmonster88]

How long it took to take whole set? how much photo you have done? :)

[@mdawso2]

hi there! question: why do you recommend using time laps photo mode vs timelapse video mode (i use a gopro hero 6 and they have both to choose from, but not sure what the difference is)

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

In my opinion you can do a lot more editing when using photos. I made some tutorials about how I edit my Timelapses. I wouldn’t Be able to edit videos the way I am editing those photos.

[@lewishalstead803]

How long does the battery of a gopro 3+ Black Edition last if taking time lapses?

[@itsyaboysean5086]

did you speed up the playback on the timelapse? ive been messing around with my camera and when i do timelapse at say 1 photo per second it plays back taking a full second before it shows the next photo.

[@michaelalbano5180]

Where is this place, the cold not affects the battery ?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

It‘s near Hvide Sande in Denmark. Batteries usually age faster when used in colder environments and maybe loose some of there capacity.

[@khidhirnor4426]

Beautiful place to life

[@dantube8471]

my sun is realy over exposed with this setting, the whole sky is white, what can i do or need to change

[@RickTravel1972]

Can you suggest any good Stands for the Gopro 7...

[@MichałStarosta80]

Hi what kind of tripod you used?

[@RickTravel1972]

Can you stand you use for your gopro..

[@jamesfisher7924]

Just wondering, why do you shoot your time lapse in photo mode, then convert to video ?, I usually use the time lapse video mode straight off - am hoping to learn why you do this differently? Thank you for you help!

[@ShafiqKhan]

James Fisher Have a look at LRTimelapse

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

I am using a combination of LRTimelapse and Lightroom to edit the timelapses. For this purpose I need photos. I wouldnt be able to edit a video in the way I can edit photos (maybe lack of skills), but this works great for me :)

[@jamesfisher7924]

Shafiq Khan is that a video on you tube?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

[@GB-ym2wc]

What app did you use for finding time and location it sunrise? I can't hear you clearly.

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

It’s called Photopills. I think it’s iOS exclusive

[@odkeky]

Hey man! great vid :) just bought the go pro hero 5, so what is exactly the difference between time lapse photo en time lapse video?

[@jajajaja214]

I want to know too

[@uknowulikethat4042]

when are we going to see an Ireland timelapse. keep up the good work

[@TheLuxentertainment]

I have a very important question: can you not get sensor damage from exposing your gopro directly to the sun? Or are sunsets and sunrises definitely safe?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

+The White Leopard I never noticed any damage my GoPro took from being exposed to direct sunlight. I think filming the sun in a very low position like sunrise or sunset is not dangerous for the sensor because the light has to travel through a maximum of atmosphere in that position.

[@TheLuxentertainment]

Thank you for your quick answer :) I think so too, especially for the newer models like the hero 4 and 5, I'll be careful anyways. Keep up with your good videos, really enjoy them, especially the tips and tutorials :)

[@Pplovrprofit2734]

What kind of tripod & attachment are you using?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

+Charles Washington I am using a togopod tripod. It comes with a ball head.

[@JamesBlackman]

Hey man, why shoot with the brightness low?

[@김하영-y6r]

How long time did you take timeless? Because battery time is short...isn't it?

[@thomasharneshaug4567]

김하영 4 hours, but you can leave it plugged in or with an extra battery

[@chronicyouth3651]

Nice vid dude.. What about hero 6 is the same setting?

[@TheTimelapseGuy]

Settings work for every GoPro :)

[@Ingridelskerdere]

How much capacity do you need on your sd card to shoot a time lapse like this? For how long did you let the gopro shoot? Very nice

[@vinade2100]

so you shoot for an ~hour=60min=3600sec, timelapse set on 2 sec interval/delay means, 3600/2=1800 pictures, on my gopro 3+ black one pic is about ~5MB(depents on light, colors, etc..), so 5*1800=9000MB=9GB storage. When you put it together as a Video, and use 15-16 FPS, it will make a ~120 sec clip(1800/15=120). works vise versa: to make 30 sec clip with 5 sec interval 30*15(FPS)=450 means 450 pictures, 450*5=2250 sec=37.5 min. btw new cameras calculate all of that for you and even the file size. If you happened to shoot/set manually and you want a 1080 clip, you can use 1920x1080 as resolution, safes space and computing time. you prbly figured it out already but maybe it helps someone else.
