Similar to 360 degrees “surround picture” at the MTV Awards two years ago, here is another project with 48 Nikon D700 cameras arranged in a circle to create “The Matrix” style images.
Here are the actual 360° photographs:

The 360 Project – Behind the Scenes from Ryan Enn Hughes on Vimeo.
“The 360 Project” is an exploration into the crossroads of photography and motion pictures. It is a study of peak dance movements, captured simultaneously by 48 cameras aligned in a circle.
There are two components to “The 360 Project” – “Ballet 360” features ballerinas from Canada’s National Ballet School, “Krump 360” features dancers from Northbuck Krump. The two styles of dance represent polemic perspectives in both technique and origin – one is beauty, the other beast.
The resulting images resemble a type of digital statue – a frozen, peak moment, embodying the essence of each dance form in 360 degrees.
