Moving Time Lapse Tutorial - Syrp Genie Mini Review

[@patrickshipton2730]

I would suggest using fully manual settings on your camera. If you lock settings (aperture/iso/shutter speed) it will eliminate the flickering of brightness in your timelapses as your camera auto-adjusts. Also longer shutter speeds (1-5 seconds) will create smooth motion, clouds/cars/etc will look more fluid.

[@gary1412]

I use a walmart mechanical one hour kitchen timer.

[@valerienaing8396]

😂😂 Haha! Same! Your comment just made my day :)

[@ToolToyReview]

Gary Dioquino how does that work?

[@joeyoliver579]

yep, me too :)

[@Bluebuthappy182]

Me too works fine for what I need

[@doublahh]

How much???

[@MelvinJoseFilms]

That horizontal timelapse was so cool when it followed the cloud. I'm just getting into timelapse video using the magic lantern feature combined with the silent picture mode so I don't wear out the shutter of my DSLR.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Melvin Jose KILLER TIP for extending the life of your shutter! (never thought of that) Keep crushing it Melvin!

[@damonr27]

what kind of bracket is that called at 4:46? i need one.. thanks for the video it was helpful.

[@dacke13]

Time lapse with taking photos instead of recording video. More freedom to edit, slow process but totally worth it and more detail as well. Cheapest 4K video way for those who don't have an 4K camera. Even compared to 4K cameras there is more detail in taking pics, editing freedom as well so the photos can look epic!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+calis krit Great tips - I'm pumped to get more into creating time lapses in the future! Def. a learning curve :-)

[@rishabhrai854]

You teach me alot about all the shots I get to see on TV but never knew how to achieve them. Thank you :)

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Rishabh Rai Your welcome Rishabh - thanks for the feedback!

[@teediamond2854]

"Let's get into the review" is, so Cheesy, however I love to here those words, it's what set you apart from all the rest. Love this review and can't wait to get 1.

[@ry92ukwj]

Wow, I absolute love that! The price is the only problem. :(

[@Ryan-ru2fm]

Thanks for reviewing the mini. I've been super interested in their products but didn't know if I wanted one. Looks legit!

[@The-Warrior-Optimist]

gopro hero 4 silver. just started shooting time lapse with it. it has a built in time lapse mode and you can manually tweak the settings.

[@RangerRob]

We enjoy using the Brinno TLC 200 HDR and also have the Brinno Pan Lapse. Lots of fun!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Rob Scribner (RV Travel Buddy) Nice - killer gear - keep crushing it!

[@ZsStudio]

the 3:42 shot!!! nice!

[@AdilConstantineMusic]

This this is awesome! Great review :)

[@decoy3701]

Wow, that looks like a great piece of equipment. I'll be saving up for sure. Thanks for sharing!

[@PabloAContreras]

Thank you for your review of this product. I love doing time lapses in my vlogs and product reviews. I will definitely have to give it a try! Thank you!

[@Davide-md9ju]

I don’t know if you have try miops capsule 360... it’s as genie mini... on the iPhone, it is possible to use the miops only as a rotating base, inserting how many degrees it has to go around and the video time, and use the iPhone X timelapse app? because using the miops app, if I choose basic timelapse, it does not show me the live video, to know in which position to stop the smartphone for the right shot. Even third-party apps show the image live. Unfortunately, it is not clear from the instructions how to use it. And it just served me as a rotating base primarily.

[@LindseyDara]

I love time lapses!! Cool video!! Ill be looking for more on this topic in the future!

[@Bebesands]

wow! I think I might need to get this...seems super convenient when trying to film, especially for me since I have kids that never stay still haha. Great video Sean.

[@meditationmantra23]

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

[@jonhoolio]

In the canyon shoot there is that problem with the flashing, i had the same problem. Pretty sure it's to do with light balance or something. the more you have your settings adjusted manually, the more smooth the time lapse will be

[@pina06355]

The flickering is from keeping your setting in "auto" white balance. Most common mistake in time lapse photography.

[@Ivan.Parada]

Seen that in your snapchat story was wondering what you were using! Thanks sean!! ordering for sure

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+ParadaFamilyVlogs Awesome! I'm pumped to get better at time lapses... keep crushing it! :-)

[@grahamcapstick8312]

another amazing video again love this channel

[@backyardfilmer9325]

I was with you from your star you have grown much well and I know you will grow more

[@pierrekiwiz]

Hey man I recommend you the "hyperlapse" app for I phone it's free and basicelly you shoot something and afterwards you play it back and select the speed you want the playback to be and also what's cool is that it stabilises your footage, I've done pretty decent hyperlapses handheld with it.

[@WSCLATER]

Whta's all the hand waving for? Some sort of masonic indicating?

[@Easyendeavour]

This kit looks cool! For a real budget alternative use a wide angle lens (or GoPro) then in edit zoom in and get it to pan across. I've done that on a few of my videos. But this kit will give you a lot better results / wider ranges of course!

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Easy Endeavour Great tip - I've done those a few time - cool way to create movement!

[@roscoejones303]

Anti-flicker software to correct lighting changes is a must

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Ross Montgomery I need it! What do you use?

[@roscoejones303]

Granite Bay Deflicker is one that works on Premiere and AFX exclusively, then Digital Anarchy has one for Adobe AFX/PP, Avid, Resolve, and FCP. Happy timelapsing!

[@digitald0m]

Wow, these are great time lapses. 📷🎥📷

[@tiomannysworld6835]

Great review, super cool gadget!!

[@philelainedang3498]

Have you used a DSLR on the genie whilst panning vertically?

[@yannsasportas891]

How did you do with your iPhone ? personally I tried what you've done in this video, but when I switch from camera mode to the Gini app, the phone stops recording... Do you have any advises ?

[@mmiikk3]

Good Tutorial. I am gonna start Daily Vloging now so this would be useful

[@natches15]

Couldn't find the phone app for the "Genie Mini" What's it called again?

[@paulybluenose]

Hi, great review. I have it too and I have the same issue with getting level footage as it sweeps over a landscape during a time-lapse...... Have you learned any techniques for getting level footage? Thanks

[@Cdonskie]

The quality is awesome❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thanks bruh..❤️

[@AmandineCynthia]

i love these videos, they're so useful

[@siddhantwatwani5510]

Will this work with my d3400 which desnt have the cord plugin? Also, do you know of any other alternatives to this?

[@GiancarloandNick]

Cool product, thanks for sharing

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Your welcome!

[@c0pyimitati0n]

Definitely don't use auto modes for timelapse. Always set up your shot manually or else your video will flash from different exposures.

[@AngelVP]

What handle you use for iphone?

[@c0pyimitati0n]

What lights are you using? It seems like there is a green tint.

[@sayanbose1992]

true !

[@nicoleparkes6056]

Thank you so much for this!

[@kooky2]

I use the hyperlapse app on the iphone. Seems better than the included iPhone one

[@kiyandowning5805]

Do you think that I could use this to get smooth B-roll footage for product reviews?

[@kiyandowning5805]

+Kiyan Downing Nevermind. Should've watched the video before commenting. Sorry :P

[@piotrp7525]

hello. what speakers do you have?

[@SVInLikeFlynn]

I've been using the Contour GPS and Contour Roam in the continouous photo mode, then using QuickTime Pro to create the timelapse. But the files are way to big. Recently I picked up,the Mobius Dash cam for stupid cheap $75 and one of the settings is timelapse, with the ability to choose multiple different shoot times. Timelapse looks great, smaller file and one less step of running it through QT. Unfortunatly, I need to use Windows PC to make any camera settings on the Mobius.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+John Coffey Thanks for the tips John - will check that stuff out - pumped to do more time lapses and get better! Keep crushing it! @SeanCannell

[@MrJcalais]

This might be a dumb question! when doing time lapse does the phone's Bluetooth connection need to on all the time OR does it just need to be connected for the setup of the Genie mini then it can be turned Off?

[@camsail]

+John Carter You do not need it on the whole time, just to set it up and start/stop any currently active movement.

[@MrJcalais]

okay thanks

[@ew1951]

This info, on the time-lapse Genie Mini, helped me in choosing a Chinese manual knock-off from Ebay. Good for now.

[@markshirley01]

what did you buy

[@ew1951]

I bought a little, mechanical tripod adapter (off of Ebay). This is the search term: Andoer 360 Degree Panning Rotating Tripod Time Lapse Stabilizer Adapter for Gopro ILDC. It works for any small camera. I have a Panasonic ZS40 point & shoot.

[@markshirley01]

Thanks Erik

[@briandhoward6137]

nice review. thank you

[@alyssamesina2953]

any alternatives? it's too pricey just for a moving mount. i can even buy another cam with that thing :/

Great Video

[@DallasRSnider]

youre in vegas!? awesome, me too

[@myronfields826]

This video was so helpful!!!!

[@tooyoung225]

My only issue with this, and other time-lapse tools like it, are that you are very limited to a specific style...I would rather do timelapses (or hyper lapses) that rotate around a specific subject, as opposed to the camera itself rotating, however it is MUCH more work in post. (I will be trying this out soon)

[@ColinBloodworth]

I like the Lapse It! app for iOS and Android. the $1.99 pro version. Solid options, very simple to use. Obviously it doesn't pan for you, but it's a great app.

[@ThinkMediaTV]

+Colin Bloodworth GREAT TIP! What does it do in addition to the simple iPhone time-lapse?

[@MistaCB]

I'm also new to this... but I use my DJI osmo mobile... works pretty good

[@jamesfindlay7150]

I use an IKEA 1 hour timer, with my action cam attach a action cam mount onto the timer and you have a 360 timer. A lot cheaper that $250

[@korbenDK]

your LED light makes your face color a bit green. I have seen this before in your videos. And i did look at more than one monitor.

[@-csotanypure-5106]

Oh I see it!! The shadows :D

[@fishycomics]

I will sow my like after..I usean Ikea Ordning timer, drill a hole put a 1/4-20 nut with gorilla white glue. done.

[@lucasscott9476]
