The whole build, documented

Construction timelapse is the most compelling way to tell the story of a building project. With ruggedly mounted cameras we capture progress hour by hour and turn months of work into a smooth, professional film. By default footage is stored locally on the camera for privacy and governance, and the finished film plus selected clips can be shared through a secure portal. If the project needs cloud or live access, we can enable a connected setup via LTE/5G or on-site Wi-Fi.

What’s included

  • Planning of optimal camera angles, indoors or out
  • Installation of weatherproof equipment
  • Compliance with site safety and access requirements
  • Secure local storage on the camera
  • Optional cloud & live access (LTE/5G/Wi-Fi)
  • Films & clips shared via portal
  • Ongoing support throughout the project
  • Finished, edited timelapse film on completion

Placement & repositioning

We find the best positions for your project, both indoors and outdoors, and mount the cameras securely. As the build progresses we can move the camera, so the finished film captures the project from several angles and feels more alive.

Using the finished film

The finished timelapse film is a powerful asset you can use widely:

  • Documentation and reporting
  • Social-media storytelling
  • Presentations and sales material
  • Websites and marketing

Want an aerial perspective? We also offer drone timelapse. It takes extra planning, contact us and we’ll plan it together.

Services in detail

  • Construction Timelapse

    Document the entire build from groundbreaking to handover with sharp, professional high-resolution timelapse footage.

  • Camera Installation

    We plan the best angles and mount rugged, weatherproof equipment securely on site. During the build the camera can be repositioned so the finished film captures the project from several perspectives.

  • Secure Local Storage

    By default all footage is stored locally on the camera, with no cloud, for privacy and governance. If you want cloud or live access, it can be enabled via LTE/5G or on-site Wi-Fi.

  • Portal & Sharing

    Finished films and selected clips can be shared securely through a protected portal whenever owners, contractors or partners need them.

  • Timelapse Video Delivery

    We produce and deliver finished, edited timelapse films, ready for documentation, social-media storytelling, presentations and websites.

  • Full Support

    Dedicated support throughout the project. We keep the cameras running so you can focus on building.

Questions about construction timelapse

How are the cameras installed on the construction site?
We assess the site in advance and identify the best angles, indoors or out. Cameras are mounted in a rugged position, typically on a mast, crane, façade, container or wall. They run autonomously on battery and store footage locally, so they need no mains power or internet connection. The full installation is carried out by us and is operational the same day.
Can the camera move during the project?
Yes. We can reposition the camera as the build progresses, so the finished film captures the project from several perspectives. This gives a more dynamic, story-driven result than a single fixed viewpoint.
Are you used to working on construction sites?
Yes. We are used to working on active construction sites and always comply with the site’s requirements and safety rules, including safety induction, access control, personal protective equipment and applicable health-and-safety regulations. We hold, or will obtain, the required certificates and access permissions, so installation and visits are carried out safely and by the book.
How long can a project run?
Our solution suits everything from shorter projects to multi-year builds. There is a minimum booking of 3 months per camera, capped at 9 months. So with three cameras or more the minimum booking is 9 months. After that it continues month by month for as long as the project lasts. You pay per camera per month.
When and how is the timelapse video delivered?
We deliver finished, edited timelapse films at the end of the project and can also provide interim films at key milestones. Videos are delivered digitally in high resolution and can be used for documentation, social-media storytelling, presentations, websites and marketing.
Is the footage secure?
Yes. By default all footage is stored locally on the camera with no cloud storage. That gives high data security and full control, which matters for security and governance on the construction site. Finished films and selected clips can be shared through a protected portal when you want. If the project needs cloud or live access, we can enable a connected setup via LTE/5G or on-site Wi-Fi.
