52 Cameras. One Very Cool Effect.

If you haven’t seen the latest video created by TimeSlice Films for Rip Curl yet, you should definitely take five minutes to watch it. Setting up at Malaysia’s Sunway Lagoon Wavepool and recruiting some world-class surfers (Mick Fanning, Stephanie Gilmore, Owen Wright and Matt Wilkinson), the folks at TimeSlice Films used 52 Canon T2i cameras to capture some stunning pieces of work for Rip Curl’s Mirage boardshorts campaign. With the cameras arrayed to shoot simultaneously, they were able to get a series of shots using what is known as the “bullet time” effect (as seen it the Matrix films). After a 4-hour rain delay which took the life of some of their gear, they were able to create some pretty spectacular shots.

Here are the videos. The first is the feature video with the final results and the second is a bit of a making-of video with some interviews.
