NWD was hired by request of Billie Eilish herself to create some bullet time moments to be included in live recording of her show at the London O2 Arena 10th June 2022. Unbeknown to us at the time it was for Apple Music. We set up the cameras at the end of the runway which stretched quite a way into the sellout crowd, which also meant we had very limited access to the equipment once the show started.
It was the perfect opportunity to use our special Gen-locked Video Bullet Time Camera Array as it would allow us to operate from backstage while never missing any action opportunities.
