The 4K UHD (UK) and Blu Ray box contains a full length commentary from Roger Deakins and an excellent ‘making of’ reel.

When Roger is relaxed and just talking about what he loves, he's one of the most interesting men in the business. No bullshit, straight up master of his craft.

Fun fact: Roger met his wife on the set of "Thunderheart" (1992) where he was DP and she a script and continuity supervisor. Over the years they've collaborated on such films as, "The Shawshank Redemption" (1994), "Kundun" (1997), "The Siege" (1998), "Prisoners" (2013), "Sicario" (2015), etc. On "1917" she functioned as a digital workflow consultant.

Lets give a Shout Out to the Boom Operators for their AMAZING job in this movie (Sound guys). I’m not making a comparison, but it seems to me that they had a very difficult task even if Camera dept achieve what they need. So I raise my hat to them!

I like how they just casually put the mini LF on the carpet

The way they were able to maneuver and hot-swap the rigs in real time is beyond amazing.

Wow! Amazing to hear about and to see the behind the scenes of the cinematography, a well deserved Oscar! Congratulations Roger Deakins!!

Thank you guys for making the most stunning piece of cinematography art I've ever seen.

Roger is such a talented and humble cinematographer! Thanks for the share.

Just a great freaking video!! Small form factor really comes to light here and the size of the Alexa Mini will be come a standard!!

Excellent interview, very informative to know more about the technique behind this great movie. And thanks a lot for the French subtitles. Merci ❤

5:15 The Trinity looks amazing!

Thanks for sharing ARRI !

Yeah, I saw the movie and was like, "Holy crap! BEAUTIFUL video images, ALL IN ONE SHOT!" I kept watching for the breaks, "where will they cut so that they can move the camera in position?" The color grading was fantastic as well! And my dream camera, the ARRI Alexa, made that possible, due to its color sensitivity optimized for a more natural look. I would've loved to be involved in producing this film! And one note: the camera they talk about isn't exactly a tiny camera. My DSLR is small. A Canon C200 is small. The Blackmagic Ursa Mini Pro (2nd gen) is small. The ARRI Alexa is definitely big. But yes, it's also smaller than other ARRI Alexa's and other cine cameras, but it's still big and requires a hefty steadicam rig to hold it.

Loved my Super 16 back in the early 80's , Arri always a class bit of kit.

Every commercial should be this informative.

I could watch this video on repeat for my whole life

Ladies and gents. That’s a dream camera dept team that speaks with so much humility and love. A lesson to mortals like us to learn as much as we can from the wisdom of these people.

The hard work paid off. Superb film!

Arri - thank you for sharing with us. Frankly you have a share in Oscar as well :). At least literally speaking and Roger shot a great movie! 40 min passed like one breath for me I glanced at a watch and was shocked. It was like childhood grandpa tale captivating soft and smooth.

He is just a master of his craft....amazing to get some insides of his work

Why arri is so cool , well you can see the details of the eye in the interview 😋✌

A masterpiece, Deakins is one of the best of all times!

This is a power couple my wife and I look up to! Roger and James talk in a way that makes everything seem deceivingly simple.

Excellent interview!!

Waching this just a few hours after I saw the movie. Crazy effort to make this masterpiece.

He’s just wonderful to listen to.

Congrats to Roger....well deserved....The GOAT !!!

Really inspiring channel. Could already use a lot for stepping up my filmmaking game! Thx a lot :)

The interesting fact that the company ARRI, makers of Arri Alexa the camera used to film '1917' was founded in Munich Germany in the year '1917'

omg! I can't even watch how amazing he is without crying. If I could only as a writer write something he might do. Sublime. just Sublime. nothing else I can say about the man.

Most interesting. Thank you 👍

excellent! loved hearing from james as well :)

Good interview! I always wondered if they used different lenses for different parts. :-)

Arri is the best camera platform in the entire galaxy.

ARRI + Deakins = Masterpiece

Excellent.Thanks.

Watching this video with a smile

deakin would be proud of that window exposure

Congratulations, Roger! 1917 was a well deserved Oscar!

This man is probably the single biggest force in cinema today.

I understand that the Arri lenses are amazing as well

I wish to some day play a role in movie production. Coming from someone with a degree in audio engineering, something about cinematography is just so much more exciting

focus pullers mustve had a nervous breakdown throughout the shoot

Thanks arri

Inspiring!

Soooooo cool !!!

Wish I could assist such stalwart with magnificent Arri system.

B-Roll left the earth

Something in me wanted more handheld action, but that transition would have been difficult.

Nothing comes close to the color space of Arri. 2k, 12 bit is beyond lovely.

Funny how they filmed a Movie called "1917", with Arri Cameras, and Arri being actually founded in 1917 :D

I didn't realize Deakin's wife was so involved in the film making.

ok now I want an Arri Alexa Mini LF rig on an Arri Trinity with an Arri Prime Master Anamorphic Lens

Deakins: hey ARRI, make me a camera. ARRI: ok. O_0

I love technical interviews with filmmakers - you can only listen to the 'general audience' philosophical stuff for so long when you just want to know the REAL details about what's going on..

Arri was founded in 1917, i was expecting something else. However, this is good.
