FAQ

Time lapse videos illustrate the goings-on at your construction project from start to finish in the shortest possible time. This makes them ideal for demonstrating big-picture contexts, e.g. for training purposes or in front of builders and customers. The primary advantage is the tremendous added value for your marketing. Moving images are the best way to retain people’s attention.
In principle, it is possible to use special time lapse cameras for the creation of time lapse videos. However, these rarely offer the desired quality and also force you to choose a frame rate at the outset. Instead, we use high-quality camera systems that allow us to react flexibly to various project requirements and ensure outstanding image quality.
The time required for creating a time lapse video depends on the length of the period you want to document, as well as on the desired frame rate and the video length. For construction projects, the time lapse video usually requires several months to be ready. The actual film creation takes between 2 and 10 days, depending on the desired time lapse.
We take care of setting up the camera and adjusting the system. After that, you can register at our online platform using your personal login and edit and download automatically created time lapse videos of your construction site.
The frequency of the image recordings for a time lapse video depends on the desired speed of the time lapse effects and the duration of the project. A typical image frequency ranges between 1 and 3 minutes. However, it can vary individually, as is necessary to adequately record the progress of your construction project. This is why we discuss with you in advance exactly which goals you are pursuing with your time lapse video..
Our cutting-edge camera systems offer a resolution of up to 100 megapixels, which corresponds to a 12K resolution. This exceptionally high image resolution allows for an extremely detailed representation of your construction project and offers outstanding image quality that captures even the finest nuances and changes. With this first-class technology, we are in a position to ensure that your time-lapse videos are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also meet professional requirements in terms of clarity and sharpness.
The location of the camera for time lapse recordings should be chosen strategically so as to provide the best view of the construction site while ensuring the safety of the equipment. This may include the use of robust brackets or tripods and, if necessary, additional protective measures.
When the recording is complete, you can access the time lapse videos via our cloud platform or the corresponding storage medium. From there, you can use the videos for in-house purposes, share them with customers or use them for our marketing objectives.
When using time lapse videos, legal aspects must be taken into account, in particular with regard to the GDPR and any necessary permits. We make sure that the privacy of individuals is respected and that all necessary permits for admission to private or public grounds are obtained.
