Hyperlapse is like a time machine on steroids, it's used in cinema to compress hours of footage into just a few seconds, and make even the most mundane scenes look like a wild rollercoaster ride. It's perfect for showing off the beauty of a location without boring the audience with a long, drawn-out scene.

In a time-lapse video, the frame rate is stretched out far more: when played back at average speed, time appears to be sped up. “It's the reality around you, but sped up in a way that you can see it unfold in real time".

A timelapse that has been broken into ‘slices’, creating a different passage of time in each slice. Often creates a gradient-like effect.
