It's a little tricky to use but if you get it right it's just perfect. The shots have no destinct rotation point, so comparing full frames will work better than tracking features in AE.

By the way, does anybody have a hundred cameras laying around and don't need them anymore? I’d also be interested in knowing which software has been used.

Makes me wish I had a hundred cameras. Would be nice to know the software and how would you go about triggering them all at the same time? Super cool video! Makes me wish I had a hundred cameras.

I bought a box of disposable cameras off of eBay and had friends hold them about the same height. Then I had an actor jump off a bench and I counted 3... 2... 1... and everyone snapped their photo. I was in high school so I had very limited editing knowledge and funds, but it was a fun sequence nonetheless. My guess is they used After Effects to track the motion and to stabilize the shots. Very fun stuff, I love seeing this.

I'd be interested in knowing which software has been used to remove the "bumpiness" of sequences. Great video.

Crazy. Shooting is the easy part, I am curious how long it takes them to just edit one of the scenes! Crazy.
