Meet Our Authors
Each frame may be a story so at Time Lapse Magazine, behind each frame is a fiery creator. Our writers are documentary filmmakers, photography enthusiasts, technology adventurers, globetrotters, teachers, and artists with one thing in common being their passions of “freezing” time moments.
It can be an in-depth demonstration of how to shoot day-to-night changes or a behind-the-scenes account of how one of our long-term documentary projects was shot, but it all comes down to our writers possessing experience, imagination, as well as some sense of reality to make it happen to the letter.
We are creating this page to the genius that makes our content and to those who might consider doing the same.
Who are OCNJ Weekly writters?
Our contributors are world-wide. Those time-lapse cinematographers are professionals at large-scale productions. There are those excited amateurs that photograph stunning cloudscapes through their rooftops. There are people who write on gear and workflows (they work as engineers), instead of traveling storytellers who just have a camera in their hands wherever they wish to write.
- True love of visual storytelling
- Educational dedication, rather than the ego contrary to judgements
- A feeling to repay the art world
