Slow Motion Soda Explosion


There is a certain poetry (methinks) to that title and so there is too with this long and very languid look at the release of shaken up soda from its bottle.

In fact, put it together with this soundtrack (supplied by Johnny Guitar Watson singing I Want To Ta-Ta You Baby) and you have something which could be considered altogether rather naughty. If you don’t get that go ask your mother: no, second thoughts – don’t.

The short film was made by David Coiffier with a I-Movix Sprintcam Vvs HD at one hundred frames per second.

There is a marvelous depth of field here and before you ask – this is two second’s of fizz, extended gracefully over two minutes.
