*NSYNC songs came out between '97-2001, but VEVO didn't start uploading videos to TH-cam for a lot of artists until 2009. Also, you were right, they were in an actual blue room that they rigged to rotate, so when they're shifting around, it's because the room around them was moving. A lot of everything in this video is actually shot on location, rather than on green screen, which is kind of crazy. They used to have a show on MTV called "Making the Video" for popular videos around this time and they showed each scene being shot, and then at the end of the show, they'd premiere the video. Last I checked, the episode where they shot this video is still on TH-cam.
Blows my mind on how you haven't heard their songs. It was on the radio all the time, but then I suppose maybe your generation didn't listen to the radio.
Basically, visual effects become dated fast, practical effects don't (if they work, they'll work the same forever). The effect that's throwing you is a practical, in-camera effect. The blue room is a real physical room that's on a humongous rig that can spin a full 360 degrees (I think the room could, also, tilt forward and backwards). The camera stays strapped in place on the wall while the room spins, making gravity seem to disappear from the camera's perspective. It's the same effect that was used for a very famous Fred Astaire number back in 1951 called "You're All the World To Me" from the movie Royal Wedding (if you wanna branch out a bit into something different, I'd recommend checking out that dance number 'cause Astaire was so good at hiding the shifts in gravity, it's difficult to figure out exactly when the room starts and stops spinning). If you wanna actually see Nsync filming in the spinning room, they show it in this making the video clip: th-cam.com/video/dBNjBwDrQVQ/w-d-xo.html
Actually fun fact about the video concept: the reason why they did the puppet concept is because that their former manager taking advantage of them back in the day (which is the late 90s) so is inspired by the Disney's animated film "Pinocchio" from the song "I've Go No Strings" so that why the puppet theme is for their album "No Strings Attached" and for the video "Bye Bye Bye" Also another fun fact is They contacted Isham through the phone, before he met them during dance rehearsals for the song.[18] The band were fastened to bungee cords during the music video's shoot to mimick puppets on strings. Choreography was performed in a blue gimbal room, which Isham pointed out was inspired both by 1940s Gene Kelly and Lionel Richie's "Dancing on the Ceiling" music video (directed and choreographed by Stanley Donen).[17][18] During the speeding train sequence, Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone performed their own stunts as they jumped from one train carriage to another, as a Steadicam operator needed to be replaced mid-scene, due to being uncomfortable with the risk. JC Chasez and Lance Bass were placed in a red Dodge Viper RT/10 as part of a car-chase scene inspired by Chasez's favorite film, Ronin (1998), where the film's stunt coordinators were hired to assist the shoot. The scene where Bass and Chasez drop into the car was filmed with an 18-wheeler carrying a pole, which allowed the two to drop into the car.[17] Both scenes were shot in Fillmore, California, as it was the only place to film the train sequence.[18] On the January 24, 2000 episode of Making the Video, Timberlake explained his reaction to shooting his scene in the music video, stating that he had the easiest time with the stunts in comparison with the other band members, but wanted to "look good" while running instead of appearing like a "dork", plus All the scenes are interspersed with shots of the band dancing in a rotating blue gimbal with a fixed camera, creating the illusion that they are on different gravity planes.
You should watch making of the video. It shows you a lot of the behind the scenes stuff. The cube they were dancing in actually spun, that's why they were sliding around on a flat surface.
As I'm sure you know, this was 23 years ago. If you're *THAT* curious about how they did the effects, check out the making of the video. I'm sure it's on youtube by now. They showed it on tv not too long after the video came out. And the drivers were stunt/pro drivers, except for some of the scenes, if I remember. You were way more into the video than the actual song. Funny
Bro they have a making of this video on TH-cam lol, it is a spinning room. There are small areas where they can grab in there, and they do edit them in at certain points. Also they did drive the car but also had stunt ppl as well. Also they did run on top a train lmaoooo *Nsync is the shit.
I wouldn't judge the video quality as a limitation of the time and it's from the early 2000's not 2009, most videos after mid 2003 were in wide-screen & digital But this is TH-cam upscale after all so that's why the video quality isn't that good There is probably a 4k wide-screen master somewhere as it was shot on film which would look fantastic And yes most shots were actually done in live action back then. Yes in films and music videos if you saw an explosion, it was real.

But, keep the video aside, one of the greatest R n B classics of all time. This song beat today's R n B down
2009?!? That’s about a decade premature 😅 Nsync was the height of the millennium era
The song & MV came out in 2000! I can’t believe it’s 22 years old!
Blows my mind on how you haven't heard their songs. It was on the radio all the time, but then I suppose maybe your generation didn't listen to the radio.
😂😂😂😂 I might’ve heard it before I just don’t remember
The car stunt at the end was real.

The part when they were dancing they were inside a design box that spins around. Its cool to watch the behind scenes on MTV.
Taking it back in time ayyy
This wasn't 2009. It came out in 2000. It was a banger back in the day. (I was a teenager)
Loved your reaction keep it up
I would hire that videographer immediately! Today's standards are meh.
JC 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
You had to be there for the boy band craze of the 90s & early 2000s
Standards have changed, but it's still a classic song
Bye Bye Bye is an amazing song prolly my favorite from *NSYNC
You know the blond curly guy is Justin Timberlake
The greatest band of all time.
There was a episode of “making the video “ a show mtv made, a whole episode was dedicated to the behind the scenes of making this music video
You should watch making of the video. It shows you a lot of the behind the scenes stuff. The cube they were dancing in actually spun, that's why they were sliding around on a flat surface.

And the drivers were stunt/pro drivers, except for some of the scenes, if I remember.
You were way more into the video than the actual song. Funny
They were in a rotating box like room made for this video for that effect.
Gotchu gotchu
Bro they have a making of this video on TH-cam lol, it is a spinning room. There are small areas where they can grab in there, and they do edit them in at certain points. Also they did drive the car but also had stunt ppl as well. Also they did run on top a train lmaoooo *Nsync is the shit.
Lets face it nowadays MV is lazy.... so boring back then the MVs are so much more interesting

You should watch the Making of this video. It's on TH-cam
Please watch the MTV making the video for this.
No 2000 not 2009 no offense but do ur homework first before a reaction everything they did was top notch when it came out
It's actually 2000
Anti gravity room !!! Come on bk In 2000 that was unheard of I always give them their credit
🥰
Good
I wish reactors would react to lyric videos instead of music videos there meant to be reacting to the music not video
@@willm1596 how about you start a reacting channel and start reacting yourself
@@KoalaKam didn't mean to hurt you sorry lol thanks for the reply though 🙂
@@willm1596 you ain’t hurting me at all gang
Got to check out Home Free’s acapella version of Bye Bye Bye. It’s awesome.
this is from 2000 not 2009
Why did u cover the video
If I didn’t the video would’ve been blocked bro
I'd love to see more Backstreet boys & Nsync reactions (or Justin Timberlake either way).
Please react to NSYNC pop
