Answer:

The answer I was looking for was “Bullet Time“.

2 is called “Horse in Motion”, a series of images which were taken in succession using multiple cameras actuated when the horse pulled taut strings on the track. It was taken by taken by Eadweard Muybridge. Horse in motion and images like this were antecedents to the Bullet time effect, which is now uber popular in games and movies.
