Customer Project Update: La Pedrera Construction is Now Complete! Watch the Final Video.
by Sarah WApril 18, 2017
Back in October, we featured an in-progress construction time lapse of La Pedrera, in Villa Mercedes, San Luis, Argentina submitted by CamDo customer and director/co-producer on the project, Gustavo L. Salgado. He used our Programmable Scheduler (which has been discontinued) to capture the footage and later moved to using our Blink time lapse controller with a HERO4 camera.
Salgado graciously reached out again to provide a complete time lapse of the project. It's amazing to see what it takes to build a structure of this magnitude. We like the clever touch of adding the day counter to the time lapse footage to help show 'real time' progress as well as integrating the drone footage to show the structure as a whole. All in all, a great execution of long term time lapse photography for a construction project.
If you're interested in tackling a similar time lapse project, we've greatly improved our product offering since Salgado began his. Check out our Construction Time Lapse Packs to get started today.

Who knew measuring time was such an important aspect of photography? For professional constructiontime lapsesand photo delays, you will need to use a rig that has an effective intervalometer. This device is an adjustable timer that can be used to limit the number of wasted shots and select the times when you want photo capture. But how does an intervalometer work? And why is it so important to industrial photography?
Construction is a trillion dollar industry for a reason. Even small construction projects can cost millions of dollars in investments. Commercial jobs with this kind of scale and value require a high degree of monitoring in order to effectively secure the developer’s return on investment (ROI). Construction site monitoring can’t be limited to a photographer or a security team. It needs to be implemented from the top-down, using a manager’s perspective.
As a construction site manager, you are likely well aware that there are a variety of benefits to implementing a time lapse camera system. However, like introducing any technology into your operations, there needs to be an appropriate plan in place on how to correctly and successfully deploy it. Using a time lapse calculator helps construction site managers plan the needs they have for a time lapse project long before it starts.
