One Shot to Get the Shot.

Arches National Park recently celebrated it’s designation as an international dark sky park with a massive star party open to the public. Filming a night sky time-lapse of a star party is quite a creative and technical challenge; there are no rehearsals, lighting, weather and exposure settings all are big variables, and you only get one shot at getting the shot.

Lighting, weather, exposure, and crowds are just some of the major variables in capturing a live event time-lapse.
