Overview of our Time-Lapse Calculators
Video Length
This calculator is designed to find out how long your resulting video will be, when you already know how long you’ll be shooting for, the interval between shots, and the frame rate of the resulting video. The calculation looks like the below:
Video Length = Event Duration (secs) / Shooting Interval (secs) / Frame Rate
Shooting Interval
This calculator is designed to find out what your time interval between shots should be. This is particularly helpful for dealing in your setting if you need to make a video that has a specific length. The calculation for this looks like the below:
Shooting Interval = Required Video Length (secs) / Frame Rate
Event Length
This calculator is designed to retrospectively find out how long you were filming for, based on an existing video. The calculation for this looks like the below:
Event Length = Video Length x Shooting Interval (secs) x Frame Rate
