The Marmalade: The beauty of high speed

The Marmalade Creative Effects is a special effects studio in Germany. What captured my attention on this particular video, in addition to the beautiful images, was the use of a "High Speed Motion Control System" they called 'Spike'. You may want to pay special attention to the minute 02:54 of the video. The precision that uses Spike to follow the falling cup of wine to the floor. That opens a new panorama about making special "high speed" shooting. I see that they are using a "Phantom" camera (a really small one) on the 'Spike'. The "Phantom HD Gold". But what makes the SPIKE an amazing tool for filmmakers is the robotic arm that controls the High Speed Movement of the camera.

Surely we will be seeing more amazing images on commercial and cinema.
