Best Bullet Time Studio in Los Angeles

Remember Bullet Time aka “The Matrix Effect?” It’s back and more affordable than ever.

Atomic Studios in collaboration with Orbital EXP has brought bullet time back to Los Angeles. The bullet time effect, made famous by “The Matrix” series, is a groundbreaking cinematic technique. It involves capturing a scene from multiple angles in rapid succession, creating a frozen moment in time while the camera seemingly moves around the subject.

Here are some key aspects:

• Camera Rigging: Achieving the bullet time effect requires precise camera rigging, with cameras placed strategically around the subject. This setup allows for simultaneous capture from various angles.
• High-Speed Cameras: To freeze motion effectively, high-speed cameras with rapid frame rates are used. These cameras can capture a multitude of frames per second, enabling the creation of the slow-motion effect.
• Post-Production Magic: After capturing the footage, extensive post-production work is required to stitch the frames together seamlessly, ensuring a fluid and dynamic visual experience.
• Creative Applications: The bullet time effect isn’t limited to action scenes. It can be used to showcase products, create dreamlike sequences, or emphasize dramatic moments in storytelling.

Our camera array can range anywhere from 24 to 150+ cameras to create an effect of stopped time or extremely slowed time. Since these systems are not mass produced, each rig is customized for your exact shot – operating with its own camera control protocols, post-processing, and filming techniques refined through many stages of development.

If you’re interested in incorporating the bullet time effect into your project or marketing campaign, our expert cinematography team led by Mitch Martinez from Orbital EXP can help you achieve stunning results that will leave a lasting impression on your audience.
