I've got a new gopro hero 3, it'll record 240fps which means I can slow down time to 12% of real time without losing image quality.

I've done the whole shake your face thing, and just poured some baileys into a glass of water which turned out nicely too..

Anyone any ideas?
Gunna stick loads of clips into a big mash up, should be interesting

Take a look on youtube at slo mo guys for a bit of inspiration.
I've been watching them for a while, very interesting and funny.

What about Jennifer Anniston doing exercises in a bikini?

Also if you film at a high fps, then make sure you have enough light, as it will affect the amount of light entering the camera.

maybe putting a drop of food colouring into a bowl of water? that could look pretty cool

burn a ping pong ball...eithe the plastic or the gas inside(or both) is pretty flammable, and is cool to see burn

Firearms going off is always good.

I don't have any firearms but you could get some slo mo of exploding paintballs?

My love life? That way when you play it back it will last long enough to be worth watching.


ps: have you got one of those lenses that makes things look bigger than they really are?
