Head to Instructables for a tutorial about how to do your own striking Matrix - corresponding ghetto Bullet Time video for those lovely OMG - grandma’s - is - frozen - in - metre - and - blank here and now . Using nothing more than Sir Henry Wood , tubes , a whole lot of digital distributor point - n - shot , one external shutter trigger and a corner full of relays , you will be able to play Neo in the hood , but without red pills , blanched rabbit and black shiny rubber-base paint . Or maybe with all that too .
Although Bullet Time is a patented process , nothing stops you from have such a gadget for your own use . It does n’t have to be as thoroughgoing as the one in the tutorial and since old digital cameras are a buck - a - bit on eBay , it wo n’t stop the bank .
The Bullet Time trick is easy : you run along your camera on a woodwind instrument arch , link up them to your initiation box and fire them in prompt sequence . The cameras will grab a series of frame which , put together in a video editing programme , will give the illusion of frozen prison term while the camera travels through the view . This rig was developed by “ Graffiti Research Lab and film director Dan the Man to use in a hip - hops music television for underground rappers Styles P , AZ and the fabled Large Professor , ” who is the guy in the iteration above .
