A montage where the position of the camera typically (although not necessarily, thanks to digital editing) remains the same, in order to emphasize the passage of time. This is a subset of the Time-Compression Montage and usually obtained by the Time Lapse technique. Common uses will show things like: Different seasons at the same location. The hands of a clock (much like Spinning Clock Hands). An object getting buried under dust. Day and night at the same location. Fast-forwarded clouds moving in the sky, might overlap with the day/night change. Under-cranking. A variation of this is a montage showing the pages of an old-fashioned paper almanac of days flipping over rapidly or being ripped off and fluttering away so that the printed numbers and names of the months seem to change in rapid sequence, to showcase how time flies. A common spoof is to reveal that in fact very little time (or at least, not as much as the montage would have implied) has passed. Frequently accompanies a Fast-Forward Mechanic in video games. Compare Age Cut. |

Notting Hill does this so subtly that you could almost think they randomly tossed a music video of the protagonist walking down the street through a spot of bad weather. And then you realize that the woman holding the baby was pregnant at the beginning of the song, that other woman broke up with the boyfriend she was delirious about three minutes ago...and did that spot of bad weather have a Christmas tree and Santa in the middle of it!? It's actually four different takes that were extremely well planned out and edited together. Go watch and marvel. | |

In Erstwhile, the time between when the stepmother learns of their marriage and when the baby is born is covered in three panels, with seasons. Doubles as Falling-in-Love Montage, or rather "Staying in Love Despite Love at First Sight and Hasty Marriage" montage. Rose Red and Snow White grow up from little girls to young women. |

The Simpsons: Spoofed in "Two Dozen and One Greyhouds", which parodies of 101 Dalmatians. The family watches as a dog gives birth to Santa's Little Helper's puppies: "22, 23, 24..." [montage] "...25!". Subverted in "Bart's Girlfriend." Bart wants to avoid seeing his bad influence girlfriend, Jessica. He circles many days on his calendar, and it seems that he actually has succeeded... until he draws an X over the first day and declares that he's starting now. Marge walks in and tells him to get ready for Sunday school, where Bart knows Jessica will be. There are two examples in "The Springfield Files", a parody of The X-Files. When Scully taps Homer's knee for reflex in a lab, his knee moves one hour later as was evidenced by moving clock hands and Mulder's emptied coffee cups. Then when Scully decides the case is the most irritating one ever and that they should leave, Mulder agrees, but he apparently rambles on for hours about the paranormal because the sky changes from day to night. In "The Cartridge Family", Homer wants to buy a gun, but is informed about a 5-day waiting period for his background check. Homer spends the entire 5-day waiting period sitting on his lawn, seeing different things he could shoot with a gun, including Flanders (twice), Patty and Selma, a row of ducks, rabbits, and a truck owned by Target (because of the famous bullseye logo on the side) while Tom Petty's "The Waiting" plays. In "Bull-E", Homer is saying sorry to Ned for bullying him over the years by sitting tight in front of the Flanders house as we see the days go by in quick succession. |

The beginning of Wreck-It Ralph shows time in the arcade passing as new games are moved in to replace the old, with Ralph's game forming the centerpiece as the popular one that never changes. What really helps sell it is that the Fix-It Felix Jr. machine is sitting right next to a Pac-Man machine, one of the few games you're almost guaranteed to find in any arcade. This also provides justification for why Pac-Man and Clyde appear in the movie and why Clyde seems to be the head of the support group (being among the oldest still around). | |

Mickey Mouse (2013): At the very end of "Three-Legged Race" when it was revealed all the teams have cheated, Mickey attempts to finish the race himself without cheating, while trying to get to the finish line dragging the supremely heavy Pete tied to his leg. It ends up taking days, weeks, months, and apparently a whole lifetime before he finally reaches the finish, of which he and everyone else are now senior citizens. | |

After Amsterdam gives his final speech about how no one will remember the draft riots, the cemetary he walks away from (overlooking the city) fast-forwards through time, and the city grows in size before finishing with a modern-day version that includes the former twin towers of the World Trade Center. | |

The Red Violin has three of them (given that the movie spans more than 300 years). The collection of Choirboys from the orphanage in Austria who play the violin for 100 years. The Grave Robbing gypsies, who play it for another century before ending up in Frederick Pope's possession. Finally, the violin goes up on sale in a pawnshop where it is displayed for 30 years as the owner ages significantly. |

Played for drama in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, when the Ouroboros are imprisoned for a month by N, to deliberately run out the clock on Mio's natural lifespan and drive Noah to the same despair he himself had felt throughout his lifetimes.

Several in WALL•E, though none of these montages provide any clues how much time is passing. They could have taken place in a number of days or even years. The plant EVE was carrying was only starting to dehydrate when it arrived on the Axiom, which would have taken less than a week in real life, but it's possible EVE has a built-in stasis field since the film implies seasons have passed. | |

Futurama: In "Space Pilot 3000", a montage of Fry's time in cryogenic suspension shows New York City get destroyed by aliens twice. Used to soul crushing effect in "Jurassic Bark", where Fry's dog is seen waiting for him on the curb outside his old workplace for 12 years, until he lies down and dies. Both of these were among the things nodded to in The Movie Bender's Big Score. Both times, a time-traveling Bender was responsible. It also shows that the dog was being watched after by an alternate Fry, then there's when you realize the dog was treated right after all. Also used breathtakingly in the climax of "The Late Philip J. Fry" when Fry, Bender and the professor witness the end and beginning of the universe, when they later go forward in time, moments from earlier episodes taking place in the Planet Express conference room can be seen as they near the present. |

SpongeBob SquarePants In "Patty Hype", we get a shot of SpongeBob waiting outside his house at the Pretty Patty stand saying "I'm ready!" before jumping several years later to him as a middle-aged man, as a senior citizen, and finally dead with his tombstone in place. It is then revealed to be All Just a Dream. In the episode "Fear of a Krabby Patty", one occurs during the day the Krusty Krab stays open endlessly without any breaks. Doubles as a Hard-Work Montage with SpongeBob working nonstop. |

Battlestar Galactica does it twice. First one is near the end of "Lay Down Your Burdens". After hearing the news of Cloud 9's destruction, President Baltar wearily puts his head over the table and the camera slowly closes up while a song begins to play. Suddenly, there is light coming in from the windows and the camera pans back to reveal that a year has passed and Colonial One is grounded on New Caprica. The second one is after the Fleet settles on our Earth. The shot shows Hera wandering around in an African grassland. She looks up and the camera pans to show a variety of landscapes while the aforementioned music plays. The sequence ends in modern-day New York City and it is revealed that 150,000 years have passed. |
