timelapse.sh

#!/usr/bin/env sh

# change 0.1 to how long a frame should be shown
# change 0.05 to how long the crossfade should show
# change 2000x1500 to the width and height of the video
# change framerate to the output framerate (this doesn't change how fast the movie is)
# change -q:v 1 to quality (1 is the highest quality for mpeg4)
