High Speed Filming

Here is how this works in practice. We deliver high-speed filming in Thailand with operators skilled on pro slow-motion cameras shooting hundreds to many thousands of frames per second. Our crews source high-speed bodies and the heavy, even lighting that extreme frame rates demand from Thailand's big Bangkok rental sector, and they plan the intense power and exposure needs with care against the local 220V at 50Hz supply.

Here is the short of it. High-speed work is precise: action must be timed, triggered and rehearsed because each take consumes wide data, so our operators set up closely with the director, the action team and the lighting department. The tropical climate shapes the schedule — heat affects sensitive camera electronics and humidity calls for care with lighting and rigs — and our crews build in cooling and weather protection. For each setup we secure the Thailand Film Office permit and brief the assigned state coordinator, delivering crisp, well-lit ultra-slow-motion footage at the resolution and frame rate your edit and post pipeline need.

Here is the breakdown. Thailand's strengths suit high-speed filming. As one of the world's biggest destinations for commercial work, Bangkok constantly shoots the splash, pour, food and product slow-motion that high-speed cameras are made for, served by deep crews and well-equipped studios. The country's martial-arts heritage, embodied by 'Ong-Bak' and Tony Jaa and the national sport of Muay Thai, makes Thailand a natural place to capture impact, motion and action in extreme slow motion. The warm, clear waters of the Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand also suit high-speed water and splash sequences.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Filming needs a permit from the Thailand Film Office, with a state coordinator ready for site liaison. With competitive rates, the Thai baht, 7% VAT, accepted ATA carnets and a cash rebates of up to 30% on qualifying Thai spend, shoots mount high-speed shoots within Thailand using local crews and gear.
