FROZEN MOMENT LIVE ACTION STOP- START SLOW MOTION TIME RAMP SPACE RAMP TIME BLUR SPACE BLUR LONG EXPOSURE MULTIPLE EXPOSURE OPEN FLASH FLASH TRAIL LIGHT PAINTING MOTION DISTORTION MATCH CUT UNIVERSAL CAPTURE TECHNIQUES - FROZEN MOMENT To record a frozen moment, or "time slice" effect shot, we trigger all of the cameras in our systems simultaneously. This results in a number of images of the subject from a number of different points of view - all taken at the exact same moment in time. These individual images are then sequenced and digitally stabilized to make a smooth motion picture of a moment frozen in time. That's not all that our systems can do, however. The frozen moment is just one dramatic example of the power of Digital Air's camera systems over the relationships between space, time and camera movement in motion pictures. The other visual effects discussed in these pages illustrate a variety of additional sometimes subtle, oftentimes dramatic, ways in which Digital Air's camera array systems and visual effects production services can be used to defy our most basic assumptions about space, time, and camera movement in motion pictures.
