Time-Lapse Of The White House Christmas Tree
Posted by
I set my digital camera and 16-35 mm lens on a tripod with two weights on it to keep it from moving too much. In the first two days, the camera was set to fire two times per minute and was bumped up to three frames per minute during the last two and half days. Our White House Photo Office intern Spencer Millsap put it all together with video editing software, making it a fun and fast-paced multimedia piece.
There’s also funny moment with the White House electricians. Since they handle all things electrical – they installed the lights on the Christmas Tree before any of the other decorations were placed on the tree. So, I’ve got pictures of the guys installing the lights and when they’re done they gather around the tree for a group shot. You see these guys in a flurry getting the tree ready, in one frame they’re posing with big smiles on their faces, and in the very next frame they’re gone!
