About TimeLapse Digital

Rene Beland’s 27 years as a video editor gives the clients of TimeLapse Digital very reliable quality with excellent final presentation options. He has broad experience in news, dramatic, documentary and full feature productions.

The range of skills needed in his career included still photography, lighting, camera movement, many camera technologies, various editing systems, choosing soundtracks, audio systems, rough and final edits, and more.

Rene feels the most important step in production is beginning: the client, general contractor or producer discussion. There he’s able to envision the final presentation and choose the tools to deliver what’s needed.

The owner of the finished production needs to achieve specific goals, on time and on budget. Rene has formed his business around this requirement. His experiences, from evening TV news to full Hollywood projects has proven his skills: technically and artistically.

Time-lapse photography uses the frequency at which film frames are captured is much lower than that used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster. Processes that would normally appear subtle to the human eye, become very pronounced.
