1. Intro: Hello everyone. My name
is Victor Hughes and I'm a director and visual
effects artists. You might recognize me from my YouTube channel where I teach visual effects tutorials, as well as host a
psychological thriller movie review and
discussion podcast. And I also post some
other vlogs to today. I'm going to teach
you how to create a parallax hyper laps, or what I considered to
be the king of all labs. In this class, I'll
be teaching you the difference
between a time-lapse, a hyper laps and a
parallax hyper laps, as well as teaching
you how to shoot and edit your own
parallax hyper laps. We'll be editing our photos
and Adobe Lightroom, and then we'll be finishing off the hyper lapse in
Adobe After Effects. And don't worry, if
you felt a little intimidated when I said
Adobe After Effects, I'll be teaching you how to get the same result using Adobe Premiere as
well for this class, I've also provided all of my raw photos in
case you don't have access to your own so that you can still edit
and follow along. But after you've nailed
the editing process, I encourage you to go out there
into the world and create your own parallax hyper
lapse from scratch. Now without further ado, let's learn the
parallax hyper laps.
2. What is a Parallax Hyperlapse?: Now before we can even create
a parallax hyper laps, we need to know what
separates it from a regular hyper laps
and a timelapse. Time-lapse is typically a
stationary shot that is showing the passing of time
through incremental frames, whether that is a photo every ten minutes or one
minute or 30 seconds, or you could film for 30
minutes and then speed it up. Now, a hyper lapse is basically a time-lapse
that is in motion. I'm sure you've seen this a lot in travel films because it's a really good way to show
off location and add energy. And now a parallax hyper
lapse is that hyper laps, but you are adding a Zoom. You are either zooming in
or you're zooming out. And the reason this
is so cool and creates a parallax
is because you're either walking
forward and zooming out or you're walking
backwards and zooming in. Of course, you can walk
and other directions, but the changing
of your camera's location and relevance to the subjects location will
then create a parallax. You'll often see
parallax is used in Hollywood in a very
dramatic scene, for example, this
scene and jaws. Now to understand what
a parallax really is, you have to understand how
zooming works with a camera. Now when you're zoomed
in on a subject, the background
becomes very large. There's a lot of
compression between the subject and the background. When you're zoomed out
filming your subject, the background
becomes very small, more similar to how we see it in real life for this
parallax high burlap. So we're going to be shooting, you're going to need a
variable zoom lens for me, I'll be using the canon 24 to 70 millimeter
F2.8 L series lens, the 24 to 70 millimeter
is the focal range. The more variability that
you have on your lens, the longer you can make
this parallax last. Now finally, I think you should think of each of these methods, time-lapse hyper laps and
parallax hyper laps as tools to show off the
location or to tell a story. Don't get me wrong. They can be really
fun to make just for the heck of it and
I do that all the time. But if you're going to
be using one of them for a more long form
substantive project. There's definitely going to be one tool that's better than the others depending
on the circumstance. For example, I think
time lapses are great for showing
the passing of time. And when hyper lapses, I think they're great for
adding energy showing distance, as well as the passing of time. And then you've got the
parallax hyper laps, which can add energy,
euphoria, distortion, this orientation distance, as well as the passing of time, much like you wouldn't use
a tripod for every shot out there because it might not be the right tool for the job. Same goes for
time-lapse hyper laps or parallax hyper laps. Now in the next episode, I'm going to show you my
camera settings and how I set up my camera to shoot
a parallax hyper laps.
3. Camera Settings: In this episode, I'm going
to show you how I set up my camera settings to shoot
a parallax hyper lapse. So you can see here
that I am already set to shoot in video and that's
how I normally am default, so I swap it over to photos and then I
opened up the menu. First thing that
I'm going to do is make sure that my
picture style is changed back to
standard because I shoot flat for my videos. Now after that, I'm
going to go over to the white balance and make sure that it's set to daylight. If you opt for auto
white balance, it's going to be very
hard to make your photos work together in a sequence without the
temperature changing. Next thing I'm gonna
do is make sure that we are shooting in raw. That will give us a highest
resolution possible and the most control over
the colors and exposure. Now after that, I'm
going to move over to the grid display and turn
on our three-by-three grid. That's going to help us
line up our hyper laps. Now I press the Live
View button again. Now you can see we've got our aperture already set to 2.8, which is where it's
going to stay. And then I'm going to
crank up that shutter to 250 so that there's not
a lot of motion blur. And then I'm going to
turn down the ISO to 100s since we'll be
shooting outside. And then I make sure that my
lens is set to autofocus. And finally I pull
out my ND filter and screw it onto the
lens of my camera.
4. Photographing the Parallax Hyperlapse: So now we're going to shoot
the parallax hyper laps. Right now, I am in
an outdoor mall, and I chose this place
for three reasons. One, it's a relatively
controlled environment where I don't have to worry
about getting hit by a car. And so make it easier
for me to teach you this and do it at
the same time too, because they have a decent sign right back here that
I'm going to shoot. And three, because our plan a didn't work out because
they were doing construction. So the first thing
we're gonna do is establish a starting point for the hyper laps and
then determine about where you're going
to end the hyper laps. And keep in mind that if you
start up close to something, you should be all
the way zoomed out. And if you start far away, it should be all the
way zoomed in to get that Parallax effect. It doesn't hurt to
walk the line of your hyper laps to see how
it's going to be framed up. Either once you've
established a starting point, you're going to open up your camera's live view and use that grid that
we now have on the camera to line
up a certain point on the sign or whatever you're
taking a hyper lapse of. And every photo that you take, you're going to want to try
and meet a point in-between two grid lines and make
sure that everything is staying exactly lined
up for every photo. Whether you're going to keep the sign in the center
or off to the left. Do you want to try and keep
that framing consistent? Also, I like to use
a camera strap. I'm not a huge fan of using a tripod because I
think it slows me down. And once you start shooting, time is of the essence. I liked the camera strap
because it provides protection from dropping the camera
to a provides stability. And then three, it also provides maybe a little
bit of a deterrent for someone to run up on
me and try and take my camera camera
strap all the way. Now some quick tips
before you get started. Like I just said, time
is of the essence. So once you take
your first photo, you need to keep
in mind about how long the gaps are in-between photos and try and
keep a consistent because even though
it's a hyper laps, we're still trying to make it look like it's a time-lapse. So if there's a crowd of
people, clouds, sunset, if there's giant gaps of
like clouds moving here, they're moving consistent and then all the sudden
they're gone. That's going to
throw off the viewer when they're watching
your hyper lapse. So try and keep time in-between
every photo consistent. Also, before you get started, determine how many steps
you're going to take in-between every photo
and keep it consistent. I normally decide this
based on how much space I plan to cover with the
hyper laps and based on how long I want the hyper laps that bead
keep in mind that the industry standard for films
as 24 frames a second. That means that 24 photos is going to equal
1 second of video. Now you also have to take in consideration your zoom lens. So right now I've got a 24
to 72.8 Canon L series lens. And the 24 to 70 is
our focal range. So whether you start
zoomed out or zoomed in, you're going to want to keep
the Zoom amount consistent and it will require
meticulous care to slowly zoom in or out. So for me, my hyper
laps will end when I'm zoomed all the way out or zoomed all the way
in depending what I started with. Now
a little warning. Try to not let yourself
get too distracted by your surroundings
because it only takes one little slip up, one oh, I pretty sure I
took a photo right now or I'm pretty sure I zoomed
in already, but you didn't. That can easily ruin
a hyper laps and that one little
mistake will make it look jarring to your viewer. But at the same time
you want to stay aware of your surroundings
so you stay safe. Now one last piece of advice, I try to avoid adjusting
any exposure settings, whether that's the shutter, the aperture, the ND filter. I don't do it. The reason
I'll adjust any of those exposure settings
is because in post it can be really hard to
blend those photos in together without it looking
jarring to the viewer. It's not impossible,
it's just difficult, so I just avoid it altogether, especially if you only
have one chance to get a certain hyper
laps, for example, a sunrise or sunset, just need to decide
if you're willing to risk ruining the hyper laps. Now with that, let's shoot. I decide I'm going
to start right here. And based on the framing
and my live view, I am going to be lining up my top grid line with
the n on that sign. And we're going to walk
directly down this line, keeping that sign
centered the entire time. It's now going to
walk down this line. I'm going to count how
many steps it is just to give me an idea of how
many steps I should take. But then also I want to see me framing once we get
to the endpoint. So that was about
a 120 steps here, and I like the framing. So I think we're going
to take three steps in-between every photo and
now be about 40 photos. So it will almost be
two seconds long. Alright, so I just
ended here all the way zoomed out, started zoomed in. That worked out perfectly. And I love a camera
like this that has a dial because I can just go right through
these photos and tell whether or not I
got a good hyper laps. And it's looking pretty
sweet to me right now. So let's get to editing.
5. Editing the Photos: Alright, so now
we're going to edit these photos in Adobe Lightroom. So I've got Lightroom
Classic pulled up and here's just some old photos. And so all we're gonna do
is go up here to Library, import and then
locate your photos. I've already taken my photos off my memory card and put them onto a hard drive so that they're easier to locate and imports. So I'm just going to
locate them right now. Skillshare hyper
laps around two and we actually only got
36 photos at this, but you can't get it down to an exact science
all the time. So these are all checked and you can
uncheck all or check. All right, here. Now go over to import. And here they are. Now we're going
to go Develop and we're just going to put
a basic edit on this. So in this first round of edits, I'm not going to change
the angle of the cropping. I'm going to leave it the same
because this set of photos we're going to edit in
Adobe After Effects, I'm going to show
you that you don't even have to fix this in Lightroom because it
can be pretty tedious. But then we'll also fix the angle and export them
separately so that we can edit this in Adobe Premiere if you don't
want to use After Effects. Alright, so let's get to work. If you'd never used
Adobe Lightroom, basically all the stuff that you're gonna
be doing to make adjustments is right
here on the right side. And I'm just going to scroll
down first things first to the Lens Corrections and
Enable Profile Corrections. It immediately recognizes
my exact lens. But if yours doesn't, you have some obscure lens or maybe Lightroom just
doesn't know what it is. It might be on here. You can search for the brand and the local range, whatever it is. You could probably
find it right here. And this isn't necessary. You can see how the
vignette changes and the distortion
of the lens changes. So I start with this because it immediately brightens
up the image. We can also go back in
and add vignette later. So now back up to the exposure. We're going to boost
it up just a tad. I like to grab some
of these sliders and just move them around to
see what I liked better. But typically I like a more
cinematic look to photos. So I'm going to drop
the shadows just a tad, drop the blacks just a tad, and then drop the
highlights just a tad. And now we're going to boost
the exposure again just to make sure that it's
staying well exposed. And if you want to reset any of these sliders
that you've changed, instead of trying to go back to 0 or type in 0 right here, you can just double-click
and then Command Z to undo if you want to
see the difference of where your photo started
versus where it is now, just go ahead and hit the
slash button on your keyboard. Now show you the
before and after. Alright, so I'm going to go down just a little
bit and I'm going to lower the vibrance
just a tad once again. Now here is what I think is the most powerful tab on here, and that is the
HSL color sliders. So we've got hue
saturation and luminance. And I'm mostly just change
the hue and saturation. But even luminance is
pretty powerful too. So I'm going to
start with the hue. So I'm going to change my
blue just a little bit. And this one I really
liked the eyeball. I don't necessarily care too
much about these numbers. I just want to make sure
that the image looks good and any color contrast
is definitely welcome. Try and move the
yellow to the orange. See how that looks like that. Alright, now we're going to
move over to the saturation. Definitely want to change
the saturation of the blue, but I'm not a huge fan of
this super punchy blue. Might just, might just
desaturate it a little bit. Then I might adjust
aqua as well. Because sometimes you'll
get some aqua and there you can see it's
definitely changing. So I'm going to boost
the Aqua to 15, that blue to negative eight. You can always go back and change some of
these adjustments. I mean, right now, all
we're seeing is a sign probably would be
smarter to edit on one of these photos down
here because we see a little bit more of the
colors that are involved. But it's so easy to change. It really doesn't matter
for me right now. Alright, and then let's see
what the yellow changing. The thing about yellow is
that a lot of what green is, is made up of the yellow, honestly boosting
that yellow does more to the tricolor than
boosting the green. And that can be frustrating
sometimes because I don't like how poppy the
green colors can be, but I also do like
what yellows can do. So I'm going to lift the
yellow saturation just a tad and lowered the green
saturation just a tad. And I'm going to raise the
hue of the green so we get this more Washington kinda
look, there's deeper green. I'm going to return yellow
to normal to returning yellow for saturation to
0 for right now as well. Now go into luminance, maybe I'll go negative ten. This change is negative five. Alright, now I'm going to
double-check by hitting Slash. Seeing how that looks. I like this. I'm liking the color of
the sign and there is some light color
contrast going on. And now another super
powerful tab here, right here in the calibration. Look at if you've
ever wondered how people make teal
and orange photos, this is a good start. Clicked. I mean, obviously that's
way too over the top, but you know, you just use this as a good starting off point. So I'm going to lower
this down just a little bit and then lower the saturation as well because
I don't want it too crazy. But you can also see what
these other sliders do. This doesn't look
too bad up here. And then you're on
the red primary. Again, these look pretty cool. And then here for the tint and the shadows, pretty powerful. So I'm going to lower the
red primary a little bit. Now. I might just add a little
bit of a vignette. You can crank it all the
way up just to see what you're working with so that
you can see the mid point, the roundness, the feather. That's what I
normally like to do, but I also don't think it looks at bad right
there in the middle. And just be very subtle
because this looks ridiculous, maybe right here at negative 12. And you can turn
off and on all of these tabs individually
to see what they do. So right here, you can see with and without our
vignette, alright, so now when we want to apply this exact same edit to
the rest of the photos, you're going to right-click on that photo that
you're editing, then go to Develop
Settings, Copy Settings. And then here they've got a list of everything that
they're going to copy. So if we were changing
something like the crop, you would want to check that on. But for this one we're not. And so this is everything
that we would need. So we're just going to copy. And then you can
hold down command and type a on the keyboard
and now select everything. Just select one of these photos, right-click, Develop
Settings, Paste Settings. Now you'll see it go
across all of these. Now that we've only edited
one photo like that, we should go and
look and see how the rest is looking.
And you know what? I think this needs to be darker. I think the shadows should
be a little bit darker. I feel like I'm seeing
too much inside here. I just want it a little moodier. So what we're going to do
is even just on this photo, we can make the adjustment and then apply it
to all of them. We don't have to go
back to the first one. So we're gonna go back
to that first tab and just darken the
shadows a little bit. On that photo that
we're currently on, Right-click Develop
Settings, Copy Settings, and now they're all
still selected. So we can just select
one right-click, develop pay settings and
we'll see the shadows change. Yep, right there
and negative 42. And we've got it all
applied on these photos. So let's go ahead and export, going to hold down
Command Shift and E. And now I'll bring up
this window so that you can give your photos
a new location. So we're going to assign
it a new location. So we're just in the
Skillshare hyper lapse, so we hit Choose. And then right here
I have this box clicked on, put in sub-folder. I'm going to rename
it to round to Edit. Alright, now we hit Export. Here we go, exporting 36 files. And once this is
done, we're going to correct the angle of the crop for those
of you who are going to edit this in Adobe Premiere. Alright, So it's all done. I'm gonna go back to the
first photo and basically we just want these
all to be level. So right up here we've got
this little cropped section. So we click on that and it
opens it up and we can change the angle by clicking
this and dragging. And it gives you all
these grid lines and that's very helpful as well. Return that you can
reset the crop. But what also you can do, which is super-helpful, is click on this
little angle tool. And now let's find something flat or it should be
flat in this photo, you just click and drag across. There we go. So now you're just
going to go through all of your photos and correct the angle adjustment
to make sure that all of your photos look
consistently aligned. And then you can export all of those photos into
their own folder. Now in the next episode, we're going to edit
our hyper lapse in Adobe After Effects. And if you're not interested
in doing it in Adobe After Effects and just go ahead and skip to the Adobe
Premiere episode.
6. Finishing the Edit in After Effects: Alright, so now we're
going to edit the parallax hyper laps here in
Adobe After Effects. I've got After Effects
pulled up right now. So the first order of business
is to import our photos. So you're gonna go right over here into this tab
and double-click. Now go ahead and
locate your photos. Skillshare hyper laps,
and round to Edits. Click on the very first
photo in your folder. And then right here you
should have something that says import or JPEG sequence. Make sure that's checked on because that will bring all of these photos in as a video
rather than individual photos, which is super helpful. Hit Open. And right here After Effects is
just telling me it's missing this one photo and that's because while it's
taking the hyper laps, a bird went right in
front of the camera. And that happened to me
once in New York City. And it kinda ruined my hyper laps because it
looked like there was an issue with the photo rather than a bird
flying through. So I instantly deleted it
and took another photo. That's what this is telling
me. So I just hit. Okay. Alright, so now that it's
compiled it into one video, we're going to drag it down
into this new composition. It's a little zoomed in right
now before we move forward, going to save it real quick because once you
start a new project, if you don't save, it stays as untitled project and if
your project crashes, then you are out of luck. So File, Save As now and
just give it a name. Hyper laps Skillshare. Alright, because we created a new composition
based on that video, we need to change
the aspect ratio because right now
this is at five K, which is just insane. So we're going up Composition,
composition Settings. And then right here, we're going to change
this to 1920 by 1080, so just full HD. And that's going to
change our framing, which does kind of
suck because we will be losing some detail out here. So obviously this is
way too scaled up. So we're going to right-click Transform Fit to Comp Width. So here we go. We lose a little bit on
the top and the bottom. So I know that my main focal
point is up here on the top. So I'm just going to
lower this down a bit. So with that layer selected, I'm going to type P on the keyboard and now I'll
bring up the position. And now we're just going
to lower this down. You can really zoom in here, hold H on the keyboard, and that'll bring
up the hand tool. So now you can just
click and drag. And then when you
don't want to use this anymore, just let go of H. You can see this
line right here, and that is where
our framings at. So you can really zoom in
on this thing and make sure that we aren't creating
any black gap like that. So we're going to
leave it right there. Zoom back out. Alright, so remember
we didn't make any angle corrections to the framing of this in the
crop setting on light room. So our first order of business
is to stabilize this. So we're going down to the
tracker panel and I have a full class on
the tracker panel here on Skillshare that
you can check out as well, interested in learning how to use each one of these trackers. And also, if you can't find your tracker
panel anywhere here, you'll just go to Window. And then you can find
tracker right here. And once you click it, it'll
just pop up right in there. Now that we have got
the tracker panel open, we're going to hit
stabilize motion. I'm not just going to be stabilizing the motion
for the position, but also the rotation
because we didn't fix any of that
angling in light room. So we need to also click
on the rotation box. So you'll see that there's
two track points here. First one is doing positions, second one is doing
the rotation. And since we want this to
be straight up and down, I'm going to track right here. And then also right here
for the second one. And you can make these
boxes bigger by clicking, clicking and dragging
these corners. But the difference of
stabilizing motion on a hyper laps as opposed
to a normal video is this thing is not going to do a very good job at following
along where we say two. And that's a bummer
because then that means we're going to have to go through manually to
adjust these points. Now let me show you what I mean. If we hit Analyze forward and
it just does it on its own, it will probably fall
off very quickly. So we'll hit this little
Analyze forward button. And on the first frame
it already fell off. So I'm going to Command
Z to undo that. So now that we've got our
points where we need them, we're going to hit
this arrow right here to analyze
one frame forward. And that will start the
keyframes that will automatically be set every
time we move forward a frame. So it's quick, it's alright. Now there's a keyframe
set for the last frame, and now we can
manually adjust these, move them to where
they need to go. Again, can hold H
on the keyboard for the hand tool
click and drag down. And you can even make this
window a little bit bigger if you want to be able to see
everything that you need. So click and drag, move it. Now, you don't have to go down here to drag forward
one frame or click this even you
could do it a lot more streamlined just by going
page up or page down. Because now that it's
creating those keyframes, you don't have to worry about
having to hit this button. It will automatically do it. So page down, we'll
move forward one frame. Now we can click
and drag this to move it back where
it needs to be. And we're just going to
go through the duration of this layer and make the
necessary adjustments. And don't worry, you won't
have to watch me do that. I'll fast forward through
it and I'll meet you back afterwards. All right. Once you're done with that, now we can go ahead and hit Apply and then hit
Okay for here. Now once we play it back, it will be much more stabilized. It just disregard this frame right here because
that's the one that I deleted and
immediately retook. I'll get rid of that soon. Alright, yeah, That is
super smooth and super lined up with the exception of that ugly color
thing that pops in. But I'm sure you're
noticing that we have these black gaps. So we're going to
find the one that has the biggest gap and
scale up from there. It's somewhere around
here with your layer selected hit S on the keyboard, and that will bring
up the scale. Now let's just scale it
up ever so slightly. All right, now let's
go through and see if there are any
other black gaps. And I'm just looking at
this framing right here around to see if it fills
up our entire frame. All right, so now
that that's good, let's go ahead and
get rid of this. So go to where this shows
up and then hold Command, Shift and D to split that clip and then Page Down to
move forward one frame. And then Command Shift D. And now this one that
we just isolated, click it Backspace to delete it. Now we can slide this over and
then adjust our workspace. We can right-click trim
comp to work area, hold command and press a
to highlight everything. Right-click, pre-compose. Move all attributes into
the new composition. Okay? Now, with the tracker
panel still pulled up, we're going to click on
the warp stabilizer. Now it's going to try
and stabilize this, but 50% is normally
always too much honestly. So we're going to start at
10% and see what happens. Now you can see that
it's processing through each frame and this will help to smooth out
the entire hyper laps. Alright, now we can play it
through and see how it looks. Now, I like this except I want a little bit more of the
sign showing up here. So I'm going to try and lower this percentage
for the smoothness because what's happening is it is stabilizing,
cropping and auto-scaling. So we are losing detail around the sides for it to
make it super smooth. So I'm going to go to 2%
and see how that looks. Oh, yeah, that's perfect, but let's see how smooth it is. All right, and there we go.
That is still very smooth and we have more of that sign in there from the
very beginning. All right, now if you
want to export this, you're just going to go to File, export, Add to Render Queue. And then right here we'll
give it a name, a hyper laps. Then you'll hit save and render. The next episode, I'm going
to show you how you can do it in Adobe Premiere with
the photos that we added, the angle adjustments to. I personally believe that After Effects will deliver
a better result, but Premiere can still deliver some amazing results
if you're not interested in learning how
to do it in Adobe Premiere, you can go ahead and move
on to the next episode.
7. Finishing the Edit in Premiere: This episode, we're
going to edit the parallax hyper lapse
in Adobe Premiere. So we're going to create
a new project and name it PR hyper laps. And remember we're
going to import the photos that do have
the angle adjustments. So I'm going to double-click
down here to import media. Now locate those photos. Round two edits with crop. Now normally you
could just click on the first photo and go
to options and makes your image sequence
is clicked on and now import everything
as a video. But because a bird
flu in front of my camera on photo number eight, I instantly had to delete
it and take another one. We've got a number gap. And so I can't do this. I'm going to have to import
them all individually. But if you don't
have this problem, go ahead and create
the image sequence. And I already tried importing
these first seven photos as an image sequence and the last view photos
as an image sequence. If for some reason
premier was having a weird glitch with
the cropping of this. So I am just going to select all of these and import them. Now I already have as a
default on my Adobe Premiere for every photo to
only last one frame. So I won't have to adjust
it when I drag it in here. But I think the default
for Adobe Premiere, unless you change it is ten
frames long for a photo. So I'll show you how
you can change that. This is the route that
you're going to do. But first let me
create a new sequence. I'm going to go to
File New Sequence and just make sure
that in the settings, its frame size 1920 by 10.9768023
or 24 frames a second. And then hit Okay. To make sure that when
you drag in one of these photos and it's only
one frame long, like mine. You'll just go to Premier
Pro up here Preferences, and then go down to timeline. Now right here you can see still image default duration one frames and you
can change this to something like
seconds as well, but one frame long. That's what I like. So I click on the first
one here and then go Command a and
drag them all in. My highlight them. All right-click
scale to frame size. And now just play
through, make sure they came in in the right order. So now what we're gonna do with all these images
highlighted is right, and then go to nest them. And basically we're just
grouping them all together so that they are treated
as one video, much like pre composing
an After Effects. Now just hit Okay, and now you can see that this
is all one nested sequence. So what we're going to do
is select this clip now and scale it up so that we
have no black gaps. So we're going to scale up. And I did 1.518. And now we're going to lower the position so we can
see more of this sign. Right there. Looks good. Alright, so now we've got this hyper laps that
we need to smooth out. So now what we're going
to do is search for the effect called
warp stabilizer. Drag it on. Now it's going to start
stabilizing this footage, but it defaults with 50% smoothness and that's
normally way too much. So I'm going to start
with 2% and you can see how many seconds
are left up here. And it's just working
through all these frames. Now you can see that we lost
some detail above the sign. And that's because
to smooth this out, what they are doing is stabilizing, cropping
and auto-scaling. So we are losing detail around the sides per Premier
to smooth it out. So let's play it through
and see how it looks. So we can see that it's a lot smoother than it was before. So if I were to go to 10% here will lose more
detail around the sides, but it's gonna be even smoother. So a lot of times
I'll opt to just do 2% on the wards
stabilizer and then nest it again and then add warp stabilizer
again at one or 2%. Alright, now if I play this
through, it's even smoother. Alright, so I'm going to
show you how to export this, but before we export, I'm just going to
duplicate this a few times so that we can have it play through and then reverse and play
through and reverse. So I'm going to hold Alt
down on the keyboard and click the nested
sequence and drag it out, and that will duplicate it. But we need to nest
it again because Warp Stabilizer won't work
when it's in reverse. So nest. Okay, now we can reverse it. So if you hold Command R, L, bring up the clip speed and duration and we can
click Reverse Speed, then right-click right
here, ripple, delete, then highlight them
both again, hold Alt, click and drag right-click
ripple delete. And you can see up here we've
got our in and out markers. That's I and O on the keyboard. So at the very
beginning you press I to set the end point, and then you go to the
very end and hit O, and that will set
the out markers. So then we go to export. We can name this PR hyper laps, and then we're in H.264
and make sure to click on render at maximum depth and use maximum render quality. And now go to Export. Now, alright, that's it. That is how you create
the parallax hyper lapse in Adobe Premiere.
8. Challenge: Now I challenge you to take
what you've learned in this class and go out into
your town, your backyard, or even take your camera
on vacation if you go on one and create
your own parallax, hyper lapse from
scratch and try not to get discouraged if you
mess up hyper lapses, take a ton of practice
and repetition. This was my first
attempt at a hyper laps about five years ago to even when I was
making this class, I mess up my first
parallax hyper laps. It might not look that bad, but with a little bit of
a perfectionist mindset. And upon closer examination, you can tell that I'm starting
to drift off my path at that heart-shaped sculpture is starting to drift off center. And you know what, It's not even that big of a deal because there can still be beauty in
these little imperfections. So I encourage you not
to get discouraged and share your work here on
Skillshare in this project, no matter what it looks like, even if it's not great
and you want help, I can try and give you some
feedback to help you improve. And if you end up
posting on social media, feel free to tag me
at big Vic media. I'd love to see what
you guys created.
9. Outro: Congratulations, You made it
to the end of the course and now you know how to create
a parallax hyper laps. Trust me, it's no small feat to learn something like this. And you should be proud
that you dedicate the time to learn it. And now you've added another
skill to your craft. Thank you so much for
taking the time to watch this class and
if you enjoyed it, please consider
leaving me a review. Also, if you'd like to keep up with what I'm doing
and teaching, you can find me on
