The other day i was spinning a movie theatre. (the movie was boring) and i noticed a cool effect when u spin in a movie theatre. i makes it look like ur spinning really fast?.. so i was wondering if anyone knows how to get this effect?

Low lighting. It doesn't look good on cam.

when it's dark, your eyes switch from seeing with its cones to with its rods. Rods operate well in dim light, but have a much lower threshold for motion sensitivity than cones do. In short, you could obtain the same effect by increasing the exposure on your camera, which is generally a very stupid thing to do.

Turn off the lights and spin in front of the computer screen. The same thing will happen.

Why is it a bad idea? It seems cool. If I'm thinking about what your talking about it has a shadow effect right? Raka did it in one of his WT vids and it looks really cool

Im not sure if its the same thing but before i have seen shufflers/rave people use these uv lights which go on and off really quickly to shine on their reflective pants and create a weird motion effect, maybe its almost the same thing? Thats not a bad idea actually, im starting a seperate thread about doing that with reflective inserts xD.

it's like strobe pen spinning, i remember see that affect while i was spinning once, it could of been while in a car at night. it looks cool though, i don't
know if it could be filmed since it might have something to do with our eyes. -

the movie/computer screen is a flicker-rate issue
Its a similar effect that can make a helicopter look like it's flying without moving it's rotors, it's frame/flicker rate -

So is it possible to achieve while filming? -

I believe it is possible..
I think this is how Stuhl is able to create the amazing effect he does when he does aerials

these effects are just how the camera works, my camera follows smoothly, if u want to have the same as the theater effect, just spin in front of those old, none-flat screen computer moniters, maybe it works on any other computer.

i didn't say it worked on MY camera, and i'm not talking about the camera, talking about spinning in front of the old computers that have the same effect.
