Have you ever wanted to show an event over film but been discouraged because no one would want to watch it because it would take so long? Never fear. There is a solution to your problem. There is a way to show a longer event in a shorter period of time. It is called a time-lapse video. Even better news, time-lapse videos are not all that difficult to do.
A time-lapse video is a video that shows the changes in the subject over time. This could be showing the sun setting, how the crowds in a busy city change over time, or how the clouds moved on a particular day, among many other options. It is a bunch of photos shown very quickly, one after another, to show a change. It takes an event that takes a long time and shows it in a much shorter time frame. This allows you to show off long events without losing the interest of your audience.
When you look at a film, it looks like the movement is just being recorded and then shown to you. However, that's not actually the case. What you are seeing is many images shown after another very quickly. Often this is something around twenty-five frames per second! That means ten seconds of footage is actually roughly 250 single images. They are shown so quickly it actually creates motion.
You can take this process of filmmaking and apply it to making a time-lapse video. You will take many shots of the same area over a period of time that you determine. Then, you will put all the shots together and speed up how quickly they are shown. This creates the effect of seeing motion over time. You will then be able to see the sunset, for example, very quickly without having to record the entire thing. It can save a lot of time and achieve a very similar effect to recording the whole event.
There are a variety of time-lapse video makers out there.

There are many events that are interesting to watch, but many people won't take the time to do so because it is too much of a time commitment. However, a time-lapse video can show a longer event in a much shorter amount of time. All it takes is you taking many pictures of your event, the sunset, for example, and then showing them in rapid succession. This will create the effect of movement over time, and you will be able to watch the sunset in a much shorter period of time.
