How I got this IMPOSSIBLE Shot for a Drink Commercial

Summary by Krater

The creator demonstrates how to shoot and composite a challenging bottle-cap flip product video for Canada Dry ginger ale, using fishing line and a rotating sponge rig to combine separate footage of the cap and bottle.

From the video

Answers: How do you film and composite a bottle cap flipping onto a bottle in slow motion?

• bottle cap flip video production
• product videography and compositing
• high-speed slow motion camera work
• special effects video techniques

What it concludes

• Fishing line and 120 frames per second camera speeds are insufficient for capturing a realistic bottle cap flip in a single shot due to motion blur and random movement.
• Compositing separate shots of a rotating cap on a sponge and a falling bottle creates a convincing bottle cap flip effect.
• Adding moisture mist and lighting changes as the cap rotates enhances the realism of the composited bottle cap flip video.
