I sat too long in the dark!
Best to use a DSLR with reasonable high ISO and wide fast lens (f2.

Once finished import all the frames into software (e.g. Virtualdub) and export out as a AVI. After you get a few together edit into a movie and add a soundtrack.
Well, there's a few tricks and tips extra but that's the jist of it.
Big tip is to plan the light levels for the entire period you're taking shots. Big difference between dark skies and moonlight. In fact the light you can see creeping up the rocks in the second section of the Conran TL is from the near full moon rising over the headland behind me.
If anyone want more info let me know.
