So glad movies like Drive came along as a reaction to the 00's action movie style of shaky handheld shots and cuts measured in milliseconds. Even really good movies from that era are really hard for me to watch now because the editing just makes me nauseous!
The music, the editing, the cinematography, the direction, the production design, the performances it's just top-notch. This movie is a fucking masterpiece.
On our way back from a friend’s birthday beach-camping weekend in 2011, back when dispensaries were just opening to the public (if you know what I mean), we stopped to catch a movie that my buddy & his gal were raving about. With sand still on me, relaxed and high as a kite, I went into Drive knowing nothing about it and had one of the best cinematic experiences of my life. You only get so many of those. Went back another couple times while it was still on the big screen. Game changer.
One of the few movies with just the amount of ingredients it needs. Action, Crime, Romance, Tension, Sadness... Everything is perfectly mixed in the simplest of ways. ❤️
Things I didn’t notice in this movie makes it all the more special. The sound design is crucial to the story telling. Drive (2011) is the definition of an auteur at his finest. Great analysis Studio Binder.
Refn’s brilliance in incorporating sounds in general and music in particular is demonstrated in so many of his recent works: Drive/OGF/Neon Demon in films and the series Too Old to Die Young.
I think Drive is one of the most Masterful examples of direction ever. The scene when he is in the apartment with Irene at the beginning of their relationship so perfectly handled. I'd love to see you guys do an "Art of the Scene" style breakdown on this involving how character directing and cinemaphotography combine into a masterpiece of a scene.
@@StudioBinder Wow ! thanks for the reply. tbh Studio Binder actually helped a lot in making my team successfully produced our first feature film especially with the screenwriting software. The film had it's premiere back in August. But we had to postpone the theatrical showing as our country is now on a partial lockdown due to Covid. Thanks a lot Studio Binder and keep on producing great content for budding filmmakers like us.
It's Amazing how Nicolas Winding Refn build Suspense with Sound Design and Editing in the Opening scene of Drive (2011). This Opening Scene explain Brilliantly the Creativity of the Filmmaker Nicolas Winding Refn is. Thank you StudioBinder. The Video is Great.
I recommended this movie to so many people, I've watched it for God's how many times, and I had full soundtrack playlist. Through this movie I learn that sound and soundtrack has a big part for cinema. How it builds the emotion makes me love great movies even more. Now I want to listen to Kavinsky Night call.
Drive has one of my favorite opening sequences ever. It has enough style but doesn't sacrifice any substance. It's very realistic but directed in a way that gives a lot of suspense and tension so it isn't a bore. There's nothing wrong w/ opening a movie up with a car chase sequence or a shootout but given the tone of Drive, I find this opening scene a masterpiece.
Oh yes! Excellent analysis. Often, these things go under the radar. After all, this film is famous also for its music but you do make an excellent point about the sounds. Top!
I love these breakdowns. To boot it gives me a newfound respect for this scene, this film and the effectiveness of sound design as well as the editing.
Loved this breakdown! I absolutely love how films are made up of so many layers and creative choices in across many facets. I always had a love for film and now I'm an intern at a film company it's blown my mind even more! Love your content! Keep it up!
You guys should do more videos on Refn's stuff even other than drive...he is a very misunderstood director... a brilliant analysis as always by Studiobinder
Fantastic film. Now it is one of those cult films that transcends and everyone knows now. But still has it's magic. A great masterpiece with music and sound design that still makes a great suspenful work. Everybody talks of the narrative or the photograpby and yet, you approach this work in a very unique way witj the sound. Great class for today.
Love this movie so much, i have to watch this video on the tv When i get home, this deserves more than me watching it on my Phone! Great movie, great channel, keep it up! 🔥😎
I absolutely love "Drive" but can't get my wife to watch it. I've described it as, "The most beautifully shot love story, that occasionally turns Oh-My-God! brutally violent."
Studio binder is soo helpful i have learned soo much from them.❤️ My interest in film making is just growing more and more. Thanks guys. PS : I LOVE THE DEEP VOICE OF THE VOICE OVER ARTIST ❤️
Now do Too Old To Die Young. Amazing in so many ways, but considering StudioBinder's love of color, perhaps something on its "compound color palettes," or "color palette juxtaposition." Idk.
Please make a video on the great cinematography aspects of The Amazing Spider-Man 2! Love your channel...Learnt a lot from StudioBinder...And please do not forget to fulfill my wish ☺️
Here football game sound is similar to train sound in godfather which also builds suspense when michael shoots sollozzo.I think this film deserves to nominate atleast for the Oscars for sound .it's a masterpiece film.
The game audio provided information that eventually paid off at the end, and the train was used to build up the tension until it had to explode with Michael's murder. Both are expert uses of sound design!

Would you please do an analysis/ breakdown of Winding Refn's Bronson?
This was and is a bloody masterpiece. Action without all the BS, the random noises and cuts etc
100% agree
❤️😎❤️😀
Yep. We more like this.
So glad movies like Drive came along as a reaction to the 00's action movie style of shaky handheld shots and cuts measured in milliseconds. Even really good movies from that era are really hard for me to watch now because the editing just makes me nauseous!
Perfect direction 💯
The music, the editing, the cinematography, the direction, the production design, the performances it's just top-notch.
This movie is a fucking masterpiece.
didn't really like the actual plot though.. still one of my favorite movies- especially because of the music
@@olik136 plot is very generic, it's literally the same as the baby driver but the execution of that plot is what makes this film a masterpiece.
The Guest movie with Dan Stevens borrowed some of the stylistic atmosphere
Perfect execution 🔥
Undoubtedly, one of the best opening scenes ever. And as always a great analysis by Studiobinder.
Well worth a breakdown!
Yes, the music, the visul, I was hooked right away.
One of my favorite movies. Drive and only God forgives were incredible
Cannot believe it's 10 year anniversary of drive! This is a movie I watch at least once a year
Yep. Soon people will laugh at the movie as they jump in their hover cars to glide to the mall.
Very rewatchable 👌

FACTS
Lots to love about it!
Also notice the blue to show danger and yellow /orange when he is safe, it's amazing
Great use of color 💯
YESSSSSSS. Please do more sound design videos.
We'll take suggestions!
@@StudioBinder Danny Elfman's score for the Raimi Spiderman Trilogy as well as anything by John Williams lol
I'm onboard for that!
Ah man, hearing Kavinsky kick in just hits in a different way. This soundtrack is gold.
Among the best!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaabsolutely!!!
narrator, you are a comforting wonder.
He is for all of us :)
What a coincidence! We are literally using Drive as an example of sound design in our film class!
With good reason ;)
The first time I saw Drive I couldn't believe any action movie could have such calm yet terrifying demeanor.
A different kind of action 🤯
Things I didn’t notice in this movie makes it all the more special. The sound design is crucial to the story telling. Drive (2011) is the definition of an auteur at his finest.
Great analysis Studio Binder.
Glad you liked it!
@@StudioBinder thank u
"But the REAL HERO is the soundtrack."
I see what you did there :)
😉
Refn’s brilliance in incorporating sounds in general and music in particular is demonstrated in so many of his recent works: Drive/OGF/Neon Demon in films and the series Too Old to Die Young.
He's really nailed this area of filmmaking
One of my favorite movies in high school. Really the one that got me into sound design and music production.
It's a great film to study those things!

This is absolute genius.... I’m a photog and want to shoot films soooo bad after watching these vids.
No better time to start than the present!
@@StudioBinder Big thanks for your vids.
7:52 also the announcers excitement matches Drivers successful evasion of the squad car. just brilliant
Just watched it for a second time this weekend! The suspense and sound design was amazing in the violent scenes!!
Sound is the invisible game changer!
I just watched this film a week ago and now Studio Binder made a video about this masterpiece. Great one

This is undoubtedly one of the most brilliant channels I’ve come across
We're getting better with our viewers' help!
Love the use of Kavinsky's Nightcall
this channel is fantastic
Definitely a modern masterpiece
Reaching classic status for sure

Through this movie I learn that sound and soundtrack has a big part for cinema. How it builds the emotion makes me love great movies even more.
Now I want to listen to Kavinsky Night call.
I loved this movie a lot! Ryan was subtle yet impactful. The opening scene is stunning. Listening to the mix here with headphones gave me chills

It's very realistic but directed in a way that gives a lot of suspense and tension so it isn't a bore.

An absolutely brilliant short tutorial on creating sound for suspense! Thank you!!!
The best cinema consists of great camera shots and sound design, both of which should be 'seen and not heard' as they say. This was a great breakdown.
To get even deeper, the camera shots and sound design let's us feel what we should feel rather than just being told what to feel with dialogue
I just wanna say, KUDOS to the Studio Binder team for giving us such high-quality content like this!
That's all we do :D
StudioBinder literally giving out college-like lectures.
Hopefully they're more entertaining than college lectures 😂
@@StudioBinder absolutely 1000%
film school? I watch Studio Binder.
One of my favourite films ever
A great pick!
I love these breakdowns. To boot it gives me a newfound respect for this scene, this film and the effectiveness of sound design as well as the editing.
It does help you enjoy a great film to know what went into it :)
Loved this breakdown! I absolutely love how films are made up of so many layers and creative choices in across many facets. I always had a love for film and now I'm an intern at a film company it's blown my mind even more! Love your content! Keep it up!
Glad you liked it! Good luck at your internship
This is why Drive is my favourite film
With good reason!
This film has always been on my watchlist but I have never got around to watching it. I definitely will now!
You'll love it!
You guys should do more videos on Refn's stuff even other than drive...he is a very misunderstood director... a brilliant analysis as always by Studiobinder
Happy 10th anniversary to this amazing work of art!
No better way to celebrate than a breakdown and re-watch 😉
10 years? Wow I did not think it was that long ago
Amazing presentation and breakdown of the Scene, congrats StudioBinder!
Thanks for watching!
Just incredible how much you teach and the quality of your teaching. Thanks

It's a great watch!
One of my fav stylized & fascinating movie 💯

The very first second of this video proves your point. I heard the first notes of Nightcall and got SO excited. Cleaver move!
🔥😉
Thank You so much for uploading new video. I was dying to see you guys again. Gr8 work.
Also, please continue the Directing Style series.

Saw it when it came out years ago. Gosling had a string of really good movies back then.
Fantastic actor 👌
Modern masterpiece
Agreed 👌
This is one of my favourite film of all time
Easy to see why!
Great analysis! Please do more on Refn work! His last tv series “too old too die young” is very Drive alike, but not as analyzed in RUclips yet.
Studio binder does the best breakdowns!
Every week 👌
this goes well with the blu rays commentary thank you very much
I was waiting when you are going to make a video on this masterpiece. Thanks.
Hope it was worth the wait!

Wow what a amazing way to explain story in Sound designing)
I'm just commenting so the algorithm takes notice of this great channel!
One of my favorite movie of all time!
I absolutely love "Drive" but can't get my wife to watch it. I've described it as, "The most beautifully shot love story, that occasionally turns Oh-My-God! brutally violent."

Make more on this category please!
Will do! If you want more vids right now, we have one on how Tarantino sound designs for violence! ruclips.net/video/3HEo_dYt92A/видео.html
@@StudioBinder ok, Thanks
I can't believe this is free content
That's how we do!
Now do Too Old To Die Young.
Amazing in so many ways, but considering StudioBinder's love of color, perhaps something on its "compound color palettes," or "color palette juxtaposition." Idk.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Damit @studiobinder, now I need to watch this again!!!
Happy viewing!
I love love love this movie and this is such a great example of why!!
great ones!

Great analysis 🔥
Thanks for watching!
THIS IS SOME AMAZING ANALYSIS!
He released a sequel called Baby Driver and a third part called boss baby :)
More like a prequel
@@BaderMansouri prequel would be le samourai, taxi driver, and driver.
😂
I love how the voice over guy sounds
This is amazing. Thanks for sharing this information. 🙌🏻 🔥
Cheers!

Awesome video gave a clear interpretation to the scene
And throughout the whole car chase seen the camera shot is from inside the car, I really think that also added a lot on the tension
Great analysis.
Thanks for watching!
