    So to anyone willing to try this, I figured out a few tips that might help:
    -doesn't work on nylon strings
    -you can use a regular plastic pen, and rub it till the plastic gets rough (else it will sound very quiet)
    -i dunno if this applies to violin, but if you go high pitch you have to press gently, and lower you have to do it harder
    -try not to hit your guitar by going too far in (that sounds weird)

      Ariel Barraza - The video is shot most likely at 24 frames (photos) per second and the b string vibrates at about 247 hz (vibrations per second). This means the string is vibrating just a over 10 times the frame rate of the video, this means the string will appear to only vibrate less then once per second.

      @@jppd0657 Sound travels in waves, and when a camera captures the string's movement, the resulting video produces a much lower frame per second count than your eyes can capture. Think- slow motion. Due to the speed of the vibrations, your eye typically won't catch the movement at a casual glance. In other words, the wavelength of the note being played on the vibrating string manifests itself in a visual manner when recorded on camera. If you're lucky, you can see this same effect with your own eyes while playing on occasion.

    Noone's talking about how satisfying the string looks on a good camera. Everyone talks about the violin-guitar, and memes about it. It sounds good, and looks good.

      Flint Kts an effect that the camera gives the string. The tuning probably has the string a bit loose since this doesn’t sound entirely standard. So yeah, watch some of Acoustic Trenches, the lowest string will shake like the San Andreas fault gave way

      @@meowif2572 assuming it's not a CG effect in this case, that means that the frequency that the string is vibrating at is precisely out of synch with the frame-rate of the camera...
      I assume that different lengths of strings and different tuning tensions will make a difference since it's not the note that's playing but the speed the string moves that creates the effect.
      Do you know if there is a way to guarantee that visual effect? I'm sure that there is an equation that we can enter the string length and tuning and get an ideal frame-rate or vice-versa but I'm not good enough at math to do the footwork... Has someone else done it already?

      @@SeekerGoldstone literally it's just frequencies. Its called the shutter illusion, and can also be seen with things like airplane props when filmed or photographed. You just need to have the shutter speed or the frequency of your camera set close to or at a similar frequency, or at an exact fraction such as half of the frequency of the vibrating object
