Construction Time-Lapse
We install time-lapse cameras on your construction site, capture images every day and you watch them live in VisionHub. For contractors, developers and engineering firms throughout Spain. At the end we deliver the edited time-lapse and the complete archive.
Video for construction projects
At Droneit we specialise in construction time-lapse videos, and we set out to show every project in a unique, professional way. We adapt to the needs of each site: strategic positioning of the recording systems, power supply, number of cameras and technical configuration.
We film construction projects using time-lapse. We capture frames at intervals agreed with the client and combine them into a video summary of the construction process: months of work in a few minutes. Our software also provides 24/7 live streaming.

Why a construction time-lapse?
Construction projects take time and careful planning. To get a much clearer view of how the work is progressing, a construction time-lapse is often used. It records how the build develops over a given period.
Watching a construction time-lapse makes it easier to spot patterns, trends and potential problems during construction. It is valuable for project management because it supports better-informed, more efficient decisions. 24/7 live streaming.
A construction time-lapse stands out for summarising months of work in a few minutes and tracking every stage of the project. It is an excellent communication tool for showing viewers what they want to see, in an engaging and visual way.
The final construction time-lapse follows a logical narrative, thanks to careful post-production by our specialist team: the shots taken at equal intervals are combined to show the process at high speed.

How we work
We take part in every phase of the project, from the site visit to the final video.
Step 1: Technical visit
We find the strategic position for each camera to ensure optimal shots and perspectives, with power and connectivity.
Step 2: Installation
We install our state-of-the-art equipment and leave it capturing from day one.
Step 3: Capture and live view
We capture every detail, even in difficult lighting conditions, and you watch it live in VisionHub 24/7.
Step 4: Delivery
Final edited time-lapse, milestone videos and complete archive.

A construction time-lapse is a photographic technique that captures images at regular intervals over a long period and then plays them back at high speed.
This lets you see the progress of a construction project quickly and effectively. A company specialising in construction time-lapse produces and edits this type of video, offering a unique view of how the build develops in a short space of time.
What equipment do you need to create a construction time-lapse?
Creating a construction time-lapse requires specialist photography or video equipment, including a digital camera capable of capturing high-resolution images, a sturdy tripod to keep the camera stable during recording, and an intervalometer to programme the shooting frequency.
As a company dedicated to construction time-lapse, we can provide all the equipment needed and carry out the recording and editing of the final video professionally and effectively.
How long does it take to create a construction time-lapse?
The time it takes to create a construction time-lapse can vary depending on several factors, such as the length of the construction project, the shooting frequency and the client's specific requirements. In general, capturing images for a construction time-lapse can take anywhere from several days to months, depending on construction progress and the interval between shots.
As a company specialising in construction time-lapse, we can give you an accurate estimate of the time needed to complete the project based on your requirements and the length of the build.
Who can watch a construction time-lapse?
A construction time-lapse can be watched by a wide audience, including investors, contractors, architects, engineers and other professionals involved in the project. It can also be used for marketing and promotion by the construction company or developer.
A construction time-lapse can also be of interest to the general public, as part of documentaries, news features or educational content about construction projects.
How much does a construction time-lapse cost?
The cost of a construction time-lapse can vary depending on several factors, such as the length of the project, the shooting frequency, the equipment used and any additional services required, such as editing and assembling the final video.
As a company specialising in construction time-lapse, we offer different packages and tailored options to suit each client's needs and budget. You can request specific quotes from us to compare prices and services before making a decision.
Can I watch the construction time-lapse live?
Yes! You can watch the construction time-lapse in real time directly on our VisionHub platform. From the start of the works to the finishing touches, follow every stage of the process clearly and in detail, whenever, wherever and on whatever device you like.
How long can a time-lapse camera record, and what maintenance does it need during the project?
Time-lapse cameras can run continuously for months or even more than a year, as on long-term projects. They are installed on fixed mounts with a stable power supply and remote connectivity, so we can monitor the equipment and download the images. Depending on the length of the project, we schedule periodic checks and preventive maintenance to ensure the quality of the footage throughout the build.
