Here’s the latest result from the above technique, with the timestamp overlay 
now limited to just the area that will contain the text:

ffmpeg -thread_queue_size 4096 -pattern_type glob -i '*.jpg' -vf "split 
[tmp][main]; [tmp] crop=iw*.25:ih*0.05:0:ih*0.95, 
drawtext=text='%{metadata\\:DateTimeOriginal}': 
fontfile=/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc:fontcolor=white: fontsize=72: 
x=(w-text_w)*0.01: y=(h-text_h)*0.01 [text]; [main] tmix=frames=50:weights='1' 
[blend]; [blend][text] overlay=0:H*0.95" -y 
CombLapseWithTimeStampAndTmixSplit.mp4

which produces:

It will be more interesting as the bees complete more comb, which gives the 
bees more space to work, which will reveal more comb.

You can see the background flickering behind the timestamp, due to some weird 
exposure variances that I’ll attempt to address in another thread.
