Answers.Text: These aren’t massive productions - I reckon they’re just holding still. To do what you’re suggesting you’d need to use motion control across both scenes. Easier to just tell actors to freeze and use fast edits.

Answers.Text: Yep - this video has very little trickery at all. I'm not convinced the baseball is 3D tracked either - I think it's old school.

  It's like a freeze frame effect. I reckon they've just asked all the actors to hold still, and for the few shots that can't work in real life (the baseball, the spilling coffee etc) they've [tracked the camera movement](https://www.schoolofmotion.com/blog/how-to-use-camera-tracker-after-effects) and added in a 3D version of the objects (eg [this coffee demo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B0QM4Cft5c&ab_channel=CGCookie) in Blender). You can see the actors moving in some of the scenes, eg his eyes move at 2m11, back of the had at 0m36, etc..
