Mad schemes

As well as our thriving timelapse business, we have a great line in mad schemes and cool gadgets - we're massively keen on developing new toys to play with, and creating visuals like you've never seen before...

Bullet time aka 'that Matrix effect'

In 2007 we were commissioned to build a bullet-time rig. For the uninitiated, this is an array of stills cameras all timed to fire at the same time.

In post-production, all the frames are aligned and so we can move through space without moving through time.... or we can move through time a bit, and space a lot, or any combination of the two...

Anyway, there are two ways of doing this: the Hollywood method (lots of time, lots of money, lots of equipment) or the Close enough for Rock'n'Roll method (much cheaper, less sophisticated).

We prefer the latter - though we know how to build both.

3d Stereoscopic time lapse

Jamie Symonds, our resident genius-on-a-budget, has perfected the art of shooting timelapse in stereo. A far cry from the red-and-green glasses of old, 3D these days is deeply sophisticated and will be coming to a TV near you in the next few years.

Ahead of the game, Jamie has made it his work to catalogue every type of cloud formation - at timelapse speeds in 3D HD.
