The video tutorial explains how ordinary digital stills cameras can create the time slice effect seen in action films, where actors appear frozen as the camera moves around them. This is achieved by using multiple cameras to capture the action from different angles simultaneously. The frames are then processed with software to create fluid motion, expanding the original frames to over 200. The tutorial provides insights into the technical aspects of achieving this effect without harming any scientists.
