    So I’m building a building and I want to take pictures every day from the same spot and take those pics and have them create a “time lapse” video of the building being built.

    most of the time lapse stuff I’m seeing takes long videos and splices them “down” into shorter vids but I’m struggling to find something that takes a lot of pics and puts them together into a video that’s not a “montage”

    TIA

    Blender. It’s free but you’ll have to make the video yourself. There’s tons of how-to’s out there.

    I think you’d basically need to import each image into the project and then set each photo to sequentially display for X amount of time. Honestly sounds like a very manageable task for a first timer.

    There are several options for creating a time-lapse video from a series of photos:

    1. Adobe Premiere Pro: This is a professional video editing software that can be used to create time-lapse videos from a sequence of images. Simply import the images into the software, adjust the sequence settings and frame rate, and export the video.

    2. Time-Lapse Tool: This is a dedicated time-lapse software that allows you to create time-lapse videos from a series of photos. The software is user-friendly and allows you to adjust the speed, frame rate, and other settings.

    3. LRTimelapse: This is a powerful time-lapse software that is specifically designed for professional photographers. It allows you to create time-lapse videos with advanced features such as keyframe editing, deflicker, and more.

    4. Windows Movie Maker: This is a basic video editing software that comes pre-installed on Windows computers. It can be used to create time-lapse videos by importing the photos and adjusting the speed and frame rate.
    Regardless of which software you choose, make sure to take photos from the same spot at the same time every day, and use a tripod to ensure stability and consistency in your images.
