This Guy Bends Time and Space in Slow Motion | PetaPixel
“Playing With Time” is a new mind-blowing 1.5-minute video by Macro Room in which a man bends time and space in slow motion. It was created entirely with a high-speed camera with clever planning and editing. Ben Ouaniche, the Tel-Aviv, Israel-based visual art director who founded Macro Room in 2016, shot the project with a Chronos 2.1 HD camera, which has a starting price of $4,995.
Everything seen in the video was shot at 1,000 frames per second, even the real-time shots of Ouaniche interacting with the slow-motion objects, since the real-time portions had to be matched with the slow-motion action portions.
The Chronos 2.1 HD has an 8-second recording limit, so Ouaniche had to plan for each of the scenes to be a maximum of 8-seconds long in real-time.
“Using rotoscoping and Alpha Matte in After Effects, I managed to separate different shots and re-time them to create an illusion of a continues shot,” Ouaniche tells PetaPixel.
