Paul Fretwell Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Hi Joe. I just took a look at that wonderful bit of time lapse filming. That is fantastic mate! I wanted to do some timelaps of a dead animal decomposing. Something like a Rat or Crow. Might give it a go soon. Anyway nice work with the Arri.

Joe Taylor Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hi Joe. I just took a look at that wonderful bit of time lapse filming. That is fantastic mate! I wanted to do some timelaps of a dead animal decomposing. Something like a Rat or Crow. Might give it a go soon. Anyway nice work with the Arri. Hello Paul. Thanks for good words! Something like the decomposing of a dead animal should be done in a controlled environment with consistent lighting, I would think. It would also take time, maybe weeks. IF you can find such a place that wouldn't mind a little bit of stink, I'd say go for it. Good lUck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
