go pros will be your best bet, as far as settings go you have to ask yourself a few questions. do you want the video to be smooth or blocky, this example will give you a smooth playback
Most movies show around 20-30 frames per second; the more frames per second, generally the smoother the movie will play back (though of course, this depends on other things too). If we’re going to make E.T.’s flower come back to life, we’ll want it to be shown at around 24 fps and be smooth and seamless.
We also need to ask how long we want the final movie to be. We’re thinking E.T.’s flower coming back to life to should last around 30 seconds… so, some quick math to find out how many frames we need to capture:
24 fps times 30 seconds = 720 frames
Awesome. Now to find out how often (at what interval) we need to shoot frames of a flower decaying (we’ll play the final movie in reverse to make it look like it’s coming back alive). First we estimate how long the actual event lasts – about 4 hours (or 14,400 seconds), we think. Some more quick math:
14,400 seconds (length of actual event) divided by 720 frames (frames needed for final movie) = 20-second intervals between shots/frames
