Is it Possible to Make a Camera Rig that FREEZES TIME? | DIY 360 Camera Rig
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 кві 2021
- I tried to build a motorised rig to capture a 360 'The Matrix' freeze time camera effect with one camera. This project took two days, using what I could find around the house.
This project was designed as a challenge to see if I could replicate the bullet time Matrix effect on a budget. This took just two days using minimal tools and whatever components I already had at home. This DIY 360 camera move is known to be one of the most challenging effects to pull off, so I hope that by showing you this revolving camera rig you can see that even this can be achieved without spending crazy money on equipment. I hope you enjoy this behind the scenes look at how this camera rig freezes time!

A crazy amount of work went into making this one for you guys 😅 Who wants to see more of these documentary style projects?
Yeah this is awesome! I want one of these rigs!
Solid themes bro, props to the mini stories. Great foley too. Love it, well done, subbed.
that droopy table lamp got me
🤣
Great stuff! Just up my street! Thanks for making it!!!
This channel needs a million subscribers plus. This is criminal!
So nice of you to say!! (Sorry I missed your message all that time ago!)
That is awesome!! The loft made me laugh and the stash areas cry 😀
Thank you! 🤣🤣
I luv ur content mate..👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
well done
Thank you!
Superb
Thank you so much!
I loved the take! this is an excellent idea. A question, what hardware did you use in this project? I mean the motor and the controller.
Thank you! I used a huge Nema 23 4.2A with a TB6600 stepper driver. It's a bad combination that by all rights shouldn't work, since the draw current of the motor exceeds the maximum specs of the driver, but it's all I had in the house. It did the job, but it didn't give the smooth operation I would like. If you wanted to repeat this, I would suggest going with something like a smaller geared Nema 23 which will provide more torque and lower speed which is what you want for this rig, and won't overload the driver 👍 Hope that makes sense!
@@JamesKGraves Thank you very much for answering my comment, I will follow your advice. I love your videos, keep making that great content. my best wishes for you!
@@hertzkamp Thank you so much! I'll do my best! And to you 😊
Hello, what is the length of the screw?
You inspired my DIY spirit, thank you very much
Hi Hugo! That was the plan, glad you enjoyed it! Do you mean the central rotating one? It's 130mm 😊 I don't actually have all the dimensions on me as I left the plans back in the UK, but if you're interested in any measurements I worked it out from the top-down shot at 12:10; the cutting mat is marked out in cm so you can measure the other objects and scale up if you need 😅 Thanks for the message!!
stupid question... but how do you make the fishing line disappear in the final edit
Not a stupid question at all! It was actually trickier than I initially thought it would be 😅 I used the wire removal tool in After Effects - it’s ok but takes quite a bit of time and a lot of fiddling to get it right. I think AE came out with content aware fill since then, though, which might be easier!
@@JamesKGraves Thank you so much for the reply! I will try that today 😁😁😁
nice Work Sir!!! do you know where i can find a similar arduino code?
Thank you, sorry for the late reply! I pretty much just compiled it from Arduino library code I found for the specific modules I used. I would send it over but I don't know what I did with it. Usually the Arduino website has support for most common sensors and actuators; just google "*part number* Arduino code", then copy and paste and add in any basic relations between them!
Is that a Make Art Now shirt?
Nope it's one I've had for years! Though you just made me realise the coincidence of me wearing such a similar shirt while making an orbital rig 🤣🤣
It's nice , but diy ? 😅😅😅
Well... I didn't buy it on Amazon 😅
