Hello,

I'm asking me about the visual effects on the TV show Heroes when Hiro freezes the time... what kind of technique is it ? Is the scene entirely modeled in 3D or is it photographs ? The camera seems to move freely in the scene !

Thank you !

I would imagine it's "Okay now everyone, hold REALLY still"

That's how they did the frozen time shot in Big Fish (and then added CG popcorn and other floating stuff later)
