Next to Premiere, it is trivial to generate timelapses in Photoshop and even add pans and zooms to the time-lapse. Many tutorials on this online if you google. If you have the photography package that comes with Photoshop and not the full creative cloud subscription, that is the way to do it instead of Premiere. I would extremely strongly recommend against anybody creating timelapses in Lightroom Classic as the files the slideshow module generates are atrocious from the perspective of compression and overall quality.
What a loaded question! I have done time lapse and used Lightroom to browse through the hundreds of images. However, to my knowledge there isn't a way to actually prepare the time lapse video using Lightroom. After I prepared the 900+ images, I assembled the time lapse video using Premiere Pro. What were you expecting Lightroom to be able to accomplish? Also, are you really talking about Lightroom CC (the new cloud-based version)? Or are you talking about Lightroom Classic CC?
Yeah, I should've known there would be a plug-in somewhere. I just haven't been one to search for plug-ins. And I guess that's my own fault. Thanks for pointing that one out.
