Video at its core is simply a series of photographs taken very closely together and combined to appear as one long sequence.

A ton of expensive gear and advanced methods exist to produce cinema quality videos like the opening sequence in ',' but this shouldn’t deter you from getting out and trying it on your own. Time-lapse photography has quickly become one of the most popular forms of creative expression in the past year.
