New Special Effects Idea, Might Be REALLY Hard

[Munchito696]

I've been a bit stagnant lately on making videos, but I just thought of something that will push my editing skills and limits. I know people who are really good at editing can probably do this in a matter of seconds, but this will expand my ability and give me a chance to play/experiment with my software and planning skills. I want to do a timelapse/regular speed/slow motion video all combined in one scene.

The hard parts will be:
1) Finding a scene where all of this stuff will make sense together. I want to do a timelapse of clouds, and maybe slow motion of somebody running, and normal speed of cars or people walking or something.
2) Changing settings on my camera without having it move so the scene will be stationary.
3) Dealing with changing lighting settings if I do layered video. The shadows might not make sense if the sun moves, clouds are flying over, etc.
4) Dealing with changing scenario. What I originally wanted to do is do a timelapse out of my window so I can get the clouds and my street leading up to my house. Cars might pull in/out, people might run onto or off of the screen, etc.
5) Layering these scenes together to make one seamless video will be tough because I've never done anything like this.

So yeah, that might be something I work on this weekend. I might do something easier like in my house or something so there aren't so many changing variables. Any ideas of something like this that you would find interesting, send my way. I've been in a creative slump lately and want to try some trippy stuff.

Typical thing would be super fast cars and people rushing past one guy or gal walking down the street. The area around him/her becomes night then day then night again etc. This could symbolise how fast life rushes past and its very easy to miss opportunities that come your way.

Another would be a very slow rabbit racing a turtle for a simpler idea[DOUBLEPOST=1432476464,1432475989][/DOUBLEPOST]For a funny one you could have some guy's alarm goes off. He wakes up but he moves in slow motion. His wife and kids move in normal speed. By the time breakfast is ready he has just got up and is stretching. He then farts but cus its slow motion its a veeeeeery long fart. Wife comes up because he is now late for work but he is still farting at this point. She looks disgusted and attempts to dress him while he is still farting. She gives up due to the smell and as she leaves for work he stops and walks down stairs. He puts bread in the toaster and by the time he sits down it pops up. Gardener or someone comes round and starts doing stuff around him either inside or outside. He finally grabs his toast and by the time he finishes breakfast the kids are back from school and disgusted he is still in his pants. By the end of the day he has just left the door ready for work but its night time. He looks at his watch and see's he is very late and starts to run down the street at walking pace.

something along those lines maybe

Dude I am nowhere near the skill level to do that second idea... I like it though
