    New levels of flippancy of tone achieved with the “being smushed in the face by the camera and being killed”. Love it. I thought 4:3 was a 2015 thing, what with Ida and then Cold War. I suppose that Lighthouse film was last year, so it figures that 4:3 comes into adverts after feature films.

    Family in the yard with grandma is well framed, I wonder if you could use like a nikon 105mm f1.4 to achieve something similar while stepping back a bit, albeit you would end up loosing some foreground elements.

    • @hkm2023
      @hkm2023 3 года назад +1

      That wouldn`t work due to the image compression of a lens that long. Sure the DOF would be very narrow as if it was filmed on a LF sensor but the image would be more compressed meaning foreground/background would feel much closer to the in focus area that it is in the shot you refer to. It has to be something wider, like 35mm as he said.

    • @AlSuChess
      @AlSuChess 3 года назад

    I love your breakdowns but I think you might be imagining more lighting and production design than what’s really there... this seems pretty natural with good locations and a few kisses of key on faces. Maybe I’m wrong but these montage pieces move fast and it just doesn’t look like they set up that much gear... what do I know!

  • @ToughestToughGuy
    @ToughestToughGuy 3 года назад

    I wonder if the 4:3 trend is due to DPs wanting to use LF and not having a lot of lens options, they just cropped the framing to get rid of the black corners, the super35 lenses were causing?

    Thanks for the video and great break down! I'm learning from these vids. I was thinking of that scene outdoor by the pool. Overexposing makes color and contrast more creamy but sacrificing then specular highlights , don't you think its that simple? It works with photo cameras which I use foremost.
