How to create a timelapse video with Theta V!

Hello everyone!

Would you like to create a video like this here?

Timelapse video with Theta V

Today I want to suggest you how to create a video in the timelapse format .
First you need to take pictures at regular intervals directly from the main Theta app as shown here: Interval shooting
After the tour, you have to import the photos into your smartphone roll.

After that, you have to download the app for editing videos and photos taken with the Theta, namely the Theta + app

click here for Android smartphones

or here for iOS (iPhone) smartphones

Open this last Theta + app, import the photos 360 ° or one by one or by “Range” (you have to choose the first and then the last one in the series).

At this point click on the blue button at the bottom “Timelapse”, then press Next.

Here we have a preview useful to see our movie and to adjust the speed (and automatically also the total playback time).

Once you have chosen the desired speed, let the app work and after a few seconds the video is ready and saved automatically in our roll. Also click on the X in the upper left to return to the home screen in our photo roll: here we have our newly created video.

Select it and click on “Edit Video”.

Here we can change the display effects (Mirror ball, Little Planet, Dual screen ( for 360 ° viewers), Flat and Straight (which I recommend for Google Maps). You can also add tone filters, cut out unnecessary parts of the video or shrink it further (symbol of the Scissors), and also we can insert a background music (pay attention on copyright!) :slight_smile:

Once embellished as a favorite we can save it and then share it with the whole world!

Thank you for your post, @davidhyno

Are the embedded photos in a Google Photos album? I want to inform you that the photos are not longer visible :frowning:

If you modify something in the album, the link to the photos is modified too, and you need to update it.

Hi @ErmesT !

Thanks for your report about images!

Yes, my fault : the links of the images were the direct ones of the photos in Google Photos and not those of the photos in the album!
Thank you so much for pointing out!

(for me the photos were always visible, after your warning I tried to exit from my Google account and I found that it was actually as you reported!)

Thanks again,

David
