Time-Lapse

The Time-Lapse Creator (TLC) is a tool to create your own construction time-lapse videos to improve project communication.

This is the perfect way to capture an event that has happened during your project and quickly share that information internally or with your clients.

How to Use

  1. In the Project Dashboard, you can select which camera view you wish to make a time-lapse from.

  2. Then go to the Time-Lapse tab that appears at the top.

  1. You can select a specific Period and Schedule.

    • Period: Duration of video capture in calendar days

    • Schedule: Continuous, working hours (M-F 8am-6pm), or custom (i.e. T-F 10am-3pm)

  1. You may choose to upload your Company Logo or an image text (i.e. For internal use only, Confidential, etc) in .png format for best results.

If you would like to place more than one logo, upload 1 image that contains 2 or more logos you would like to place.

  1. You can choose between 30, 60, and 90 seconds for the duration of your video.

  1. You can also opt to remove the time stamp or provide smooth frame transitions.

  1. You can put a title on your video for easy identification, or leave it as is, showing the project and calendar captured.

  1. Once the video is created, you can close the window, or go directly to the Media Hub tab.

    • New videos still being processed will have the Evercam Logo over them.

    • Completed videos will display the time-lapse image.

You will receive an email once the Time-Lapse has started and once it is completed.

  1. In the Media Hub, you can:

    • View the time-lapse in the window

    • Rename the time-lapse

    • Delete the time-lapse

  1. Finally, you can share the time-lapse, by either:

    • downloading the video and sharing it with others, or

    • clicking the “is public” icon, allowing sharing through social media and hyperlinks.

      Clicking Share allows you to share via social media, as well as via two hyperlinks, one that takes you to the Dash, and the other to the source-hosted video.

      This feature will only be enabled upon request by the Company Admin.
