About this project
Working with German company 3DS and BDA Creative, producing a 180 degree, 8-metre diameter Bullet Time rig in Berlin, using 72 DSLR cameras.
Shooting Matthias Schweighöfer running past being chased. We worked in collaboration with the incredible award-winning photographer Andreas Franke. We merged the bullet time rig system with his Hasselblad camera with our trigger system, allowing us to trigger all the cameras, plus the Hasselblad at the same time, to give a perfectly synced shot across all the cameras.
Creating a perfectly aligned, smooth shot of Matthias running past, this was captured in Canon RAW and JPGs, allowing maximum post-production to be done later on by the post teams.
The final bullet time results were then shown across Germany on huge billboards, bus stands, Above The Line (ATL) and Below The Line (BTL) advertising (which is TV, Internet and Print).
