Non-Blender: Smashing Mugs at 10,000fps.

Bart · December 29, 2011

The Slow Mo Guys shoot all kinds of scenes in HD using cinema quality high-speed cameras. The results are amazing – check it out to get some inspiration! My other favorites are EPIC Mentos and Coke, Giant 6ft Water Balloon and Soggy Flappy Faces. Enjoy! :)

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.

My favorite part of this is the audio – it sounds like churchbells in a rainstorm.

Everything seems to be cooler in slow motion. Maybe thats why its used so much in movies.

It’s a reclame for these (you know that firm, right? ;) ) cameras. And… at least for 5-10 years this technology will not be “possible” for usual people. But I hope I’m wrong…
P.S. I don’t like breaking mugs, glass or whatever hard surfaced by myself. Slapping women asses looks much cooler (I hope you know that video ;) )

This is a great reference for realistic animation.
