I think the camera angles, depth of field, view distance, background music, rate changes, mistakes, relatively low frame rate and especially the champagne ejaculation shot all made this quite mediocre in comparison to many of the slomo videos that are out there.

No, you have listed a bunch of neat stuff that could look cool in slow-motion. The point Yogi was trying to make is that the "art" portion of this video comes from unique camera angles, setup, different colors used (Primary), engaging background music, the switching of time-shifting, ect... were all carefully constructed to make this video intriguing. And that, my friend, is art.



I'm not sure why you quoted me on this comment, seeing as how we are discussing different subjects. I never said it was "good" art. Just done well enough to keep your attention. I agree, I've seen far better 'Slow-Mo' videos... I was simply just stating that this is in fact art (no matter how mediocre it is).

SEEE SEEE!! I'm a ref and it gets really annoying being threatened all the time for doing my job. Especially when I do a GOOD Job!

If there ever needed to be a slomo replay it's this.

Oh, and a steady hand.

Go to hell whoever post-processed this video, added terrible music, turned the colors to crap, got rid of all the audio, and cropped all the action so close that it's completely unimpressive and has no sense of scale or motion.

Agreed. Excessive slomo for no apparent editorial reason, zero sense of storytelling or even the basics of videography and editing. Sad excuse for an edit...I hope GoFast didn't pay them for this video.

if one more slomo gets on the 15 im going to throw up on all of you


If you film it and post it in slo-mo I bet it would make top 15.

if one more slomo gets on the 15 im going to throw up on all of you

^ No shit. Marine, I agree with you 99% of the time but this is bullshit. It's a video of the police breaking the law. That's not a waste of resources. Breaking the law you're being paid to enforce is a waste of resources.
These guys should be out busting meth labs anyway.
PS: In your opinion MG, what's with the slow motion raid? These guys look like their toking up themselves. Thank god there wasn't an armed criminal in there!



i think slomo raid is their only options, they look rather overweight and immobile that bunch

check out my green eye, pony tail, slomo pecks.

Wow, fantastic video! Great launch and the music is terrific - especially the first track during the slomo.
