zZz's Grip

One of those rare jewels where CGI effects are not used -*shock!* *horror!*

Commissioned for an art happening in Amsterdam, this clip by Dutch band zZz was directed by Roel Wouter and "consists entirely of a single overhead shot of a trampoline from which gymnasts in brightly colored smocks soar into the air toward the camera - each holding a sign for a particular editing effect [PARTICLE BURST, BUST & PULSE] which isn't being used."

And what makes this extra cool is how the team i.e. performers, gymnasts and band members, only had one take to do their respective routines thus displaying the final cut without an ounce of editing..interesting eh
