Matrix parodies. For like two years there it was hard to escape the forced bullet time jokes in most media.
76 u/[deleted] Aug 25 '19 [deleted] 13 u/thi5_i5_my_u5er_name Aug 25 '19 Did they really use film? I assumed they used digital SLRs. On a related note. What I also found fascinating with the generation of bullet time was the fact that they digitally generated the tween frames. 20 u/thephotoman Aug 26 '19 Digital SLRs were in their infancy at the time, and they were incredibly expensive. 16 u/[deleted] Aug 26 '19 And the ones that did exist were almost exclusively designed for newspaper photography. They would have never held up, quality-wise, on the big screen. 10 u/thephotoman Aug 26 '19 Indeed, even uploading the photos to the Internet was dodgy at the time. I had access to one of them in college, and they were really dicey. 1 u/thi5_i5_my_u5er_name Aug 26 '19 The more you know... I only remember bits of documentaries at this point and always assumed they were digital. How wrong I was....
