[@hayk3000]

@@LuciusKyrus well... it's not as simple of a question as you think it is man. Science doesn't always has 100% answers, so simplifying things becomes a necesity because uncertainty is unpleasant. I'd suggest you to let that topic be, I'm deducing you're a bit obsessed and frustrated with it with the way you responded to the OP since it wasn't relevant. But if you really can't let it be I'd recommend you this channel kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3Tbopeej9CredE It helped me understand a bit confusing topics such as these. If you got time I'd also recommend you Contrapoints, and Shaun. They are very calm and though provoking. Complexity is not as comfortable as certainty, but it does make you a more calm person since you understand others and the world. And I HIGHLY recommend you to stop watching PragerU and Paul Joseph Watson, they engage in huge misinformation, the former for political and business interests, and the later out of ignorance. I really hope I could help you out a bit, take care man.

Right at 1:46 you can see where they spliced two clips together. Watch the girl on the left's hand on her hip. This one had to be multiple shots because you can't keep zero G going for three minutes straight or the plane will crash. In the BTS vid they said it can only do zero G for about 30 seconds at a time, so they had to cleverly plan moments where they stop moving so they can cut and wait for the plane to go back up for another dive.

[@MarkW1210]

Please be more accurate, this video in particular is NOT in one take because you can't pull Zero G for that long here on Earth. More accurately the plane can't.

[@Utecitec]

according to their website it is one take, but with the climb back up cut out, so they drop for 20-30 seconds, then freeze for 2 min while they climb back up and continue when they dive again.

[@phoobnahr8853]

It is a single take, of a 15 minute flight with performers holding still between 27 second intervals of zero gee. The long intervals with gravity are sped up and/or cut out, but the video you see is of 9 consecutive intervals of zero gee with nothing cut in from previous attempts.

[@michaellewis1671]

I loved the natural flow of this video; every few seconds they have to spend time ascending so that they can maintain the descent necessary for zero g, so you see everything collapse on the ground and the people sit still for a few seconds like half a dozen times or more lol

[@TSKseattle]

Watch the "behind the scenes" video. They get 25 seconds of freefall, and then four and a half minutes of gravity, so they had to hold the position they were in, and edit out the long intervals later, watch for the points about every 21-22 seconds where they hit the ground, then start floating again

+midirok There's no such thing as a "zero gravity system." The "set" was inside an aircraft flying parabolic arcs to give the passengers inside the feeling of weightlessness.

[@midirok]

Then how can this piece of crap song afford to make such an expensive video. This band will be in the hole for this for years. They will never be able to recoup the costs of it and the label i'm sure is freaking out every day they don't get paid back.

[@nailgames2282]

[@nailgames2282]

+NailGames takes*

[@EVAUnit4A]

+NailGames Oh? I watched it three times now, and there's only one time (a yellow suitcase, 2:03 ) where the camera is completely blocked enough to slip in a cut.

[@Randallpw]

+EVA_Unit_4A sorry about the length... so it's actually really cool how they did it. Both of you are right... there were many takes of of the video. there was a lot of coreography that had to happen in zero gravity. the problem is that the parabolic flight only provides 27 seconds of zero gravity. OK Go song has parts that last 21 seconds each. The timing of the parabolic maneuver cannot feasibly be changed so they slowed the song down instead, so each 21 second melody lasted 27 seconds. The next hurdle was that after the "freefall" the plane had to climb 10000 feet back up, which obviously way longer than a second or two. for this, OK Go stayed as still as possible for the climb (which was nearly 2 Gs) and sped up/cut out the ascent. Depending on how you look at it you could say it's not filmed in one take... but because the zero gravity parts were all shot consecutively... I consider it to be a single long shot.

[@EVAUnit4A]

Randallpw I saw one of their other "one-take" videos (I don't remember which one, they were in Japan and use a drone camera), and the behind-the-scenes showed that it was filmed much slower than the final video. Fair enough- you could see things moving in an odd way, but, for the most part, it _looks_ like a single, continuous shot from start to finish! This video looks about the same- the camera never stops rolling _even if_ ultimately it was filmed at a slower frame rate and then sped up during editing. You can see when the plane goes up, because everything slides back down and you see muscles straining against the positive-Gs! My point is, they may have shot this multiple times, but the footage they shot was ultimately from a single, continuous shot where the camera does not stop at any point, and there is no trick-photography where they hide a cut by having something big (or photo-shopping with computer animation) hide the cut in the original footage.

[@KyleCorbeau]

It was probably fun until the plane pulls up and they feel twice their weight pushing down on them. That's the trade off for real Zero-G on Earth; when the plane "dives" they get the Zero-G feeling, but unless they want to crash the plane eventually has to pull back up and all that force is applied to them in the opposite direction making it extremely unpleasant (not to mention the motion sickness you're bound to get from riding "waves" on a plane).

[@buddyk1674]

[@PushyPawn]

No wires, No green screen, but plenty of computing power was used to stich those 8 zero-g parabolic arcs together to make the transitions look seamless. A lot of hard work went into this in the form of planning, choreography, timing, lots of practice and execution. The time stamps for the start of each zero-g period are: #1: 0:23 #2: 0:45 #3: 1:04 #4: 1:25 #5: 1:46 #6: 2:07 #7: 2:26 #8: 2:47

[@Tealsquiddev]

I dont think there were any cuts. the way these zero-g planes work is that they basically go up (gravity) and then go into freefall (zero-g) and rinse and repeat throughout the video

[@PushyPawn]

@@Tealsquiddev Well done. 👏

[@yokikokudou]

​@@Tealsquiddev there is a cut & stitch in the video cause zero gravity only takes 27sec & 45min to get back to another zero gravity. the song is 3min & you can't have a 3min zero gravity unless you're on outer space...which I doubt they will ever be as the behind the scenes video says the entire ordeal is a puking marathon for the crew.
