Say you want to recreate the famous bullet-time sequence from the matrix for the DVD of your daughter’s ballet recital. You can
- Rent the real rig from a vendor for $100,000 or…
- Build your own rig in two days for $8,000
This is no joke! A couple of guys actually did this and best of all, posted a detailed how-to on Instructables. It’s a brilliant set-up that includes 24 pro-sumer digital cameras (with shutter cables), some components readily available from radio shack for a controller box, a few random pieces of hardware and some plywood. The resulting images were used to create the VFX for a low-budg rap video and amazingly close to the real deal. These guys really went the extra mile an included cameras with a Bulb setting so they could incorporate light streaks into the shots.
