Ultra Motion (Super Slow - Mo)

The predecessor of Hi Motion, its superior and easier-to-use successor which landed in 2006, Ultra Motion shot at 1000 frames a second to produced some remarkable images. For the first time viewers could see the amazing way that bats bent and twisted as they made contact with the ball, and even the way the bones in the hand reverberate when a catch is made. Perhaps it is at its most useful when used to show just where on the batsman's bat or body a ball glanced ... rarely does a replay fail to clear that issue up. Beloved by producers for use during closing sequences or musical interludes.
