The Stunt People on Discovery Channel’s Time Warp - 12/10/08

Our episode is on Dec 10 8:00 pm, Dec 11 12:00 am, Dec 14 9:00 am, and Dec 21 1:00 pm.

In October 2008 Ray Carbonel and I went out to Boston to shoot an episode of Time Warp called “Stuntmen.” They filmed us doing various stunts using the Phantom HD Camera, which puts everything into super-slow motion, giving the effect that its subjects are frozen in time. HK spins, falls through tables, fake bottles, squibs, and more are featured in our episode.

The schedule table for our show is below, and we’ll do our best to get the video posted here as soon as it airs for those who missed it.

From the Discovery Channel Site:

Welcome to Discovery Channel’s new series Time Warp, in which MIT scientist and teacher Jeff Lieberman uses new technologies to bring truly never-before-seen wonders into a form that your body can actually process.

Using the latest in high-speed photography, the Time Warp team takes some natural events (a cat licking its paw, a champagne bottle being opened) and some not-so-natural (a water balloon to the face, a raw piece of chicken exploding) and turns them into a thing of both beauty and learning.
