Not too long ago, Nokia announced their N8 Producers competition, which I think is fantastic (they also invited me to participate). It took a while, but I finally thought of a few ideas for videos to enter in the contest. The first one is actually something I’ve been thinking of for a while. I’m blessed enough to have a huge window across from my desk, and I’ve been wanting to create a time-lapse video showing the view as it changes throughout the day.
Unfortunately, as you’ll see, the window happened to be quite dirty, and I was frustrated to find that there was not a cloud in the sky today. Normally you can see big puffy clouds floating across the view. In any case, it worked out quite well – I used an app called Lapsed, which took a photo automatically every 60 seconds. The Nokia N8 was able to do this for over six and a half hours on a single battery, which is quite impressive.

Have you come up with any ideas? You’ve got until January 31, 2011 to enter them at the N8 Producers site.
Were the people showing up in the frame at times aware that you were doing this?
They might be shocked to find that they are on youtube. lol
