@EamonnDwyer People will really come up with any rationale to fulfil weird superstitions. They spend their longest night interior scene blasting everyone with classical hard lighting, and the practicals are burning out the highlights.

Reminder that this is a digitally shot film and a clear example of production design and lighting being vastly more important than recording format

The thing I especially appreciated about The Secret Agent was that every location had a distinct texture and felt like a real place in time rather than a sterile lifeless set

@tvaziri Same handle on Bluesky and threads but I don’t use them much

@willw while it looks good and looks like a movie that is coming out today, you are in fact repeatedly reminded this is a movie shot digitally. not a moment they're attempting to hide that.
English
@in_deserto That cites a now-deleted write-up done by TIFF that’s inaccurate. It was shot on the Alexa 35 camera. The anamorphic lenses are vintage.
English
@willw Vintage camera equipment and Panavision lenses were used to achieve this.

@jstn I love how when you look up any answer for how to clean something its "Dawn, the blue one"
English
funnily enough, the best one is Dawn Pro which they don't sell at grocery stores. it comes in one color: blue

this made me feel insane

@reactionpico Yeah, he’s often not using them, that’s my point. I love the kind of blind fire condescending replies a viral post gets from random people that know nothing about me 😛
English
He's so annoying because you presume he plans this stuff out, but then all you hear is how he just arrives on set and comes up with this stuff on the spot.

The more you learn about camera blocking and shot design, the more you realize just how ridiculously good Spielberg's game is. 🥲

@wgrahamprofiler Far less this century at least. Like Munich was supposedly completely unplanned

@willw he's pretty much lying lol
the best in the business at storyboarding

@atamaniac88 Lmao in what was is this anything but adulation for a genius
English
@willw Who are you to question Steven Spielberg film making process? You weren't even born at when he was at his peak you lil bro

@OhRichard271 For sure, they are technically simple and understated, while gracefully hitting so many beats or different setups in one graceful take.
English
@OhRichard271 But what I’m saying is he comes up with those special shots on the day, the kind that a normal crew would carefully plan far in advance. Like Munich is all special shots like that, and it sounds like he basically didn’t have a shot list.

@SugeOfTheWest He’s notoriously efficient, often shoots a film in way less days than most, and almost never goes over schedule.

@shualippa @erikinternet They are making marketing sites for Trump’s own self interest, they’re making tacky TrumpRX landing page type garbage not improving actual meaningful interfaces. It’s propaganda.
English
@erikinternet i'm personally a fan of making our government websites look and work better, a ton of people rely on these sites to live their day to day lives
