Try a fast shutter speed when filming as well. I have a Canon XM2 (PAL GL2) and when I use a fast shutter speed combined with frame mode, it looks pretty dang close!!

By using a very fast shutter speed you reduce the amount of motion blur captured in each frame, giving a much more stilted/urgent feel to fast moving action. As this is something done at shooting time, it is very difficult to replicate in post (how would you remove motion blur ?)

PAY ATTENTION! I'VE LEARNED YOU THIS BEFORE!

Correct me if I'm wrong, Swarrine, but I believe you were asking to do this in post?
If it's in production, Steven Schleicher wrote an excellent article on how to do this over on the DMN with various DV cams.

Does anyone know if Band of Brothers was the first mainstream use of this effect? If not, who invented it. I hate it personally. But I have noticed lots of TV shows startig to use it. I guess they think they are cool. I'm always facinated by how these kinds of things appear in a movie and then by the next TV season you have half a dozen examples, wheather they fit the style of the show or not.

I think that swarrine was actually asking both how it is done in general and how to simulate this effect in post.

One place you might look for this effect in a less drastic context would be in the bright outdoor scene following the Mines of Moria battle in The Fellowship of the Ring. In this case, a fast shutter is used without any work in post to augment the effect (undersampling, stutter-cutting, etc...). Take a look at the flowing water to get a sense of shutter speed (shutter angle) at work.

You can also look at Gladiator or roughly half of the rap videos released in the past five years (for very short shutter angles) to see what happens when one closes shutter angle.

Simulating this in post is very difficult, and rarely completes the effect.
