Rotisserie motor time-lapse motion control unit

Craft & Design Photography & Video

Usually when you see a time-lapse sequence the camera is stationary. Adding camera motion to a time lapse-shot adds noticeable depth to a scene. Maker Derek Mellott built this motion control unit for his DSLR from a cable management tray, BBQ rotisserie motor, and TI graphing calculator. [Thanks, Udi!]
