Slow Motion

Slow Motion Slow motion (commonly abbreviated as slowmo) is an effect in film-making whereby time appears to be slowed down. Typically this style is achieved when each film frame is captured at a rate much faster than it will be played back. When replayed at normal speed, time appears to be moving more slowly. An example is shown here at 1.00 I think it was used as it was the death of a main character, it makes the scene more emotional and grasps the audience more almost making them feel upset for the death of the character.
