GoPro NIGHT LAPSE EDITING | A FULL STEP BY STEP Guide

Creating night lapses is one of my favorite use cases for GoPro action cameras. After shooting the hundreds or thousands of photos that comprise a night lapse, it is important to understand how to edit these in order to get the best results.

In this video I outline my entire, step by step editing process for creating GoPro night lapses. This process is not exclusive to photos taken on the GoPro and can be used for night lapses of photos from other cameras as well.
