A monopod is easier to use than a tripod on uneven surfaces. You can shoot hyperlapse handheld, but it will be a struggle to achieve smooth camera motion in the final video. As for the image count, it is only needed for calculating the final length of the video. If your camera does not have this capability, you can count the shooting interval in your head. Many cameras have Timelapse Mode that allows you to set a shooting interval and an image count. There’s a wide range of creative experiments between a simple hyperlapse video shot on a phone and a film such as Guy Roland’s “Pacer.” But don’t worry: just remind yourself that Guy Roland shot his hyperlapse movie on 16-mm film, and all the “effects” were created in the camera! To make an original hyperlapse video, you will need lots of patience, a steady hand and… some school math. Still, there are countless ways to shoot hyperlapse footage, and the more exciting the hyperlapse, the more meticulous work it demands.
