I know, hundreds of slow motion videos have been already made. Even a couple of days ago, i swore i would never do "one more" slow mo vid, i used to tell that i'd use it with care. But... I couldn't resist!
After waiting for 4 months, I finally received the Sony FS 700. Since the main project for what I'd need it had been delayed, I had nothing planned, but I was excited to make some SL tests at 240fps.
So with Matthias Dandois, during a rainy afternoon in Paris, we had fun testing the camera & filming a line from different angles. We were amazed by the result.
Like the shallow DOF, it's a trend that is going to be overused, but you have to admit that even a simple or casual thing looks amazing in slow motion : by showing us what the human eye can not see, even a guy walking in the street looks like a gladiator!
