Reply to comment by jamesneysmith in Oscars: “Naatu Naatu” From India’s ‘RRR’ To Be Performed During Ceremony by impeccabletim

How did they film it? It's actually sped up right? I wonder how they synced it to the beat of the song. Practiced at a slower tempo that would sync up after being sped up I guess

This is an actual effect used in some dance performance videos, especially kpop! Yes, they slow down the music and perform at the slower tempo before syncing it up in post. But it usually gives a sort of stop motion effect in the process that I didn’t notice when watching the performance in RRR. I honestly do not think they slowed down the performance in any way on set. I’m wondering if they show it at a higher frame rate to give it a motion blur effect?
