Slow Mo guy’s research (Gavin Free)

They are a YouTube channel with 10 million subscribes the main camera operator for the slow motion camera (phantom Flex camera)is Gavin Free their cameras are capable of 343,000 frames per second. This is what creates the slow motion because it has many Images taken over a short time this also creates a smooth motion. In 2007 Gavin joined Green Door Films the first production house in Europe to use Phantom slow motion cameras

He has worked on such films as Hot Fuzz and Snow white and the huntsman and many other films.


Their cameras can be very expensive as they have a lot of technology that isn’t evaluable to everyone this means that they can shoot at a very high frame rate that not every camera can do this is what creates the slow monition as it has main images taken over a very small time this creates the smooth movement need for a slow motion video the problem with shooting the amount of frames they do is it takes a lot of power and space but it also can effect the image quality. This is due to the large amount of space and power being used to work the shutter and take all the images
