CONSTRUCTION TIME-LAPSE SERVICE
Time-Lapse NOW provides professional long-term time-lapse documentation for construction and renovation projects. From camera installation through final film delivery, we capture the complete evolution of a project with reliable equipment and careful visual storytelling.
Our services are designed to integrate seamlessly into active construction sites while producing compelling visual records of each project’s transformation.
CAPTURING CONSTRUCTION FROM START TO FINISH
BEFORE
Site conditions after demolition.
DURING
Continuous time-lapse documentation throughout the build.
AFTER
The completed project delivered as a cinematic time-lapse film.
CAMERA INSTALLATION
Each project begins with a site evaluation to determine the best vantage points for documenting construction progress.
Cameras may be installed:
• On nearby buildings or rooftops
• On interior structural elements
• On temporary or permanent mounting points within the site
Multiple cameras are recommended to provide broader coverage and capture both overall construction progress and detailed activity.
Weather-protected housings allow cameras to operate continuously in outdoor conditions.
ONGOING CAMERA MAINTENANCE
Time-lapse cameras require periodic servicing to ensure reliable long-term capture.
This includes:
• Battery replacement
• System checks
• Lens cleaning
• Equipment inspection
These visits ensure uninterrupted recording throughout the duration of the project.
IMAGE CAPTURE & ARCHIVING
Images are captured automatically at scheduled intervals throughout the construction process.
During maintenance visits:
• Captured files are securely offloaded
• Project footage is archived
• Backups are maintained for future editing
This process preserves a complete visual record of the project’s development.
EDITING & FINAL DELIVERY
Once construction is complete, the captured images are assembled into high-resolution time-lapse films.
Deliverables may include:
• A full-length project time-lapse film
• Short marketing edits
• Versions formatted for websites or presentations
• Archival footage of the entire project timeline
Each film highlights the transformation of the project from beginning to completion.
