Not sure what your settings are but you need an interval of about 2s to make the sequence "flow" well. Not sure if the choppiness is YouTube or the conversion?

Honestly? I found that pretty boring.

There wasn't a whole lot of things going on in portions of the video and with something like that you almost need something like a Kessler Crane and at least a 2 axis head so you can slide the camera and move the direction in which it's pointed to add some interest to the video.

To give you an example:

Or anything from Eric is a good example of timelapse. Even though, at this point in my career I don't really see the point of timelapse, as you can't mount it on the wall. . But I know there are many uses for it...

Actually, a lot of timelapses are made boring by their over use of push/pull/pan.

I guess for me, I looked at the OPs post as his learning. BTW, you can hang almost any frame from a timelapse on the wall and folks do that all the time

This is my first learning of the sunset timelapse with longish shutter speed. the night shots required longer shutter speeds. I think I should have made a 30sec video with the last segment(lat 30 second segment)

. Yeah because comparing someone that is just learning time lapse to an actual cinematographer is a fair comparison. If you have looked into cranes and slides you would also know Eric has $1,000's invested in that equipment alone - not counting his cameras. That little timelapse of Chicago was probably a weeks worth of shooting as well.

Oh- and with a cheap flat screen tv a limelapse can easily be mounted to the wall. You could actually have video, stills, and timelapses running in a loop.
