John Carpenter's the man. Love the 'Making of Halloween' special feature on the anniversary Blu-Ray/DVD in which they talk about how they lit The Shape's mask with a blue-light in dark rooms to add that crazy eerie effect. They also discuss what the film was like prior to adding the original music... how much scarier it got with addition of a few keys... shows you how far that Casio keyboard can go. Wasn't aware it was all shot in Pasadena, CA and not in "Haddonfield," IL until I was much older, though I lived near Pasadena... he creates amazing worlds within worlds, and on a shoestring budget. Amazing man. Thanks for this Sareesh.
Also all his shots are just perfectly composed from the framing to the mise en scene down to the lighting. You can tell at least some thought went into every shot.
John Carpenter is one of my idols - Love all his stuff - THEY LIVE has one of the most unbeatable fight scenes ever because he just let the two guys carry on and on, and made the scene longer - It was very thrilling and exhausting in a dramatic way. Thank you for making this awesome video Sareesh. John Carpenter, is truly one of the most inspiring and greatest filmmakers ever.
Mike what’s wrong with dark star?? That was his first and done on extremely low budget which has always been his staple. That’s brilliant and talented filmmaking.
I guess this is where the power of creating a good story and mastering the basic of cinematography comes in hand! There is just no way to cheat. Everything needs to have a purpose.
Awesome, as always. Reminds me I have to revisit Dark Star. Haven't seen that in at least 20 years probably. Your clips reminded me how witty and hilarious it was.
Wow! Now I get it why he's considered a genius. I've watched some of his movies, and I was somehow puzzled. Now that you mentioned the Incongruent trick, I definitely can see it. :) Thanks for sharing.
Hey man can u make a brief vedio on 1.how to shoot in apartment and flat 2.how to achive a film look in flats in apartments 3.wat r the basic tricks and tips to shoot in one single location with three charecters....couse iam planning to make a movie......
Hey man i just love your work...thanks for giving great information...i expect a lot and lot more like these informational and tutorial vedios from you....thanks once again
Hi, awesome video! Carpenter is one of my references in cinema. I'd like to know if there's any youtube channels or any material related to editing that you recommend. Thanks a lot!
Videos like this always talk about "simple smooth camera moves" these are the most expensive and time consuming to get on a true shoe-string budget. The equipment and crew required to pull off a tracking shot compared with handheld or locked off can easily double or more than triple your budget for that day, not to mention how much less material you'll be able to count on covering. I agree that they add production value, immersion and excitement but its important if you are really working with no money to understand how much more work and planning they require.
As a screenwriter, im Trying to stay consistent in my filmmaking. I have so many older films im putting out and just biting the bullet on. Would love everyone's input.
Looks like I may be shooting in India . Not sure of the locations yet. We may need you assistance if you are available. Where can i find your email to send you the info?
Haha. There's still a lot of locations to work around in this video. Watch GETT THE TRIAL OF VIVIANE AMSALEM. One room, two chairs, 4 people. That's it
YOU, sir, get TWO likes from me. But only one of them will be recorded. I also think that Carpenter adds value by shooting locations the way Leone shot people's faces. He turns buildings into landscapes.
Sareesh ur good at knowledge but make some movie of URSELF n show it. Suggestion: very poor in american accent n don't try it. Use it neutral English. Its best for u.
John Carpenter was always at his best doing low budget films. Hes in a class of his own. Extremely influential and transcendent.

Don't Breathe is one of a kind.

Movie name in 4:13...anyone??
Pronounced " in·con·gru·ent ". At least that is how I have always heard and used it. It is used quite often in legal and scholastic papers.
The thing😵😵😵
"How to master single location filmmaking"
@6:54 "add other locations"
Gee thanks lol
u da man
Looks like I may be shooting in India . Not sure of the locations yet. We may need you assistance if you are available. Where can i find your email to send you the info?
You can use the contact form on wolfcrow.com
this is dope
Alien and Star Wars were indirectely inspired by darkstar, through Dune
Haha. There's still a lot of locations to work around in this video.
Watch GETT THE TRIAL OF VIVIANE AMSALEM. One room, two chairs, 4 people. That's it
john carpenter one of the greatest film makers ever..dude can i get the weed u r smoking? one of d greatest horror.film maker wd be more apt
Escape from New York certainly had more star power than Blade Runner.
YOU, sir, get TWO likes from me. But only one of them will be recorded.
I also think that Carpenter adds value by shooting locations the way Leone shot people's faces. He turns buildings into landscapes.
suuuuuubbed
Sareesh ur good at knowledge but make some movie of URSELF n show it.
Suggestion: very poor in american accent n don't try it. Use it neutral English. Its best for u.
