Default Time Lapse

First crack at this, I just set my camera to snap away every two mins for the last 8 hours, can anyone tell me some good software to slap them all together and make a vid sequence?

You don't specify if you're using a PC or a Mac, but on the PC I use a (free) program called FFMpeg to create avi files from a sequence of photos. The photos have to be named Image0001.jpg, Image0002.jpg and so on, and the command I use to convert them into a movie is:

ffmpeg -f image2 -i \pathtoimages\Image%04d.jpg \pathtooutputfile\movie.avi

i've used "Video Mac" (on PC ) for some work related video's i've made

it allows you to force it at any framerate, resolution you want, and video duration you want..

pretty simple

Light Room 3 will do it for you and set it to a song. If you are using MAC then you can also use iMovie.
