Matrix Effect Photo Booth, lets you make
a
short leap (literally) into the world of
special effects
made famous in the popular film The
Matrix. You know the one I mean, where
the movement freezes in mid air but the
viewer i.e. camera, rotates around the
static action pose.
Instead
of a small private cubicle that
barely holds one person, this booth is
more spacious to accommodate the array
of cameras, and has a few props that you
can use to spice up your action.
It's a tad more expensive to use than a
simple passport booth, but you get a
unique set of images burned unto dvd to
take away and enjoy.

But the problem with those booths is the timer always triggers the camera at the wrong time. You'd leap in the air, hold the pose and end up with a 360 degree film of you landing awkwardly on your ass. |

Bun anyway, because it would be amusing to see other peoples. |

[2fries]: How did you do that? You moved like them! |

I think we can all thank our lucky stars
that there is no -- at least as far as I
know, and I haven't looked -- Matrix-
Effect p0rn... |

The set-up they used in the movie was a large (like maybe 40' or larger) circular tub lined with color-key in order to get a good distance shot away from the subject. You might have to use a very wide-angle lens on every camera. Either way, I'm sure you'd want to be at least 10'-15' away from your subject so as not to make them look distorted by the lens (and that's 10-15' away from the subject all the way around them...so a great big circular area). I'm just thinking that this would be one heck of a 'photo booth', i.e. not something that would easily fit into, say, a small corner of a shopping mall or something. |

I could see something like this at a fair or outdoor event though. I'm thinking it would have to be constructed on the spot, then torn down and moved (or else made in a permanent installation where people would go to get such a shot done). |

This is a brilliant idea. |

A traffic circle could contain this. |

I would like a few runs in the booth ... Picking up son (2yo) and holding him up in the air nose to nose, (matrix effect). He always giggles so much when I hold him up like that. It would be nice to see him so happy from so many angles. |

After catching a few highlights of last years Super Bowl, I could have sworn I saw a "Bullet Time" effect there. If you are really desperate to have your very own Matrix Effect record of yourself, you could try a mid-game strip. Although you will probably get arrested... |

There would definitely be a market for this, but I feel the cost would outweigh the savings with current technology. |
