The success that director Christopher Nolan has achieved over his career has enabled him to constantly scale up the production of each film that he shoots.
In this video I’ll take a look at the effect that the production budget has had on Following, Memento and Inception, focusing on how access to money affects the cinematography and storytelling in each film.

    basically on the low budget one you get lesser known actors, in the mid budget one you get quite well known actors and in the high budget you get leonardo dicaprio

    Although Nolan can handle big budget film I personally think Nolan should take a break from high big budget film for a while and make a cerebral complex film like memento with complete Cinematic storytelling that will be with less dialogue but more visual angle so that audience can grasp and join the fragmented structure without any exposition. It will be a fun ride. I believe people will surely watch it

    If Josh Trank taught us anything, is that you can't go from a low-budget movie to a big-budget movie You need to go from low to medium, and then from medium to big Is all about gaining credibility. You never know when a studio is gonna think they can control you. You need to show them that you know what you're doing better than them.

I don’t know how many editors and whatnot you’ve got working for you, but this feels on the same level as StudioBinder, which has quite a large team of people cranking out videos. Awesome stuff. However, if I can give a critique, it would be nice if you could put a small title line over all the clips from different movies which aren’t mentioned by name in the narration. There are a lot of intriguing clips I’ve seen that I just have no clue how to find without scouring for hours on the web

    Prime lenses are usually preferred over zooms because they’re faster, this is better for situations with less light. They also have less distortion. This is more likely the reason he used them in Following not because he wanted to move the camera in for close ups, that’s just standard for filmmaking. Zooms are only really used for the effect of zooming.

    Thanks for the video! I would like to make a point: in his last movie, Tenet, I think that the high budget took control over the director more than the opposite. Explosions, gunshots, explosions, more gunshots, vfx... Hey we got it. There is action. But while watching it, we [friends and I] just felt that it served no purpose. I was less coherent with the plot -that could have been contemplative, at least just a bit, all the cuts are max 2 seconds seriously- than Transformers. It's cool to have possibilities but it's a great mastery to know when to say: "it's enough".

    Can I just say that I really appreciate your videos :). While there are tonsssss of cinematography videos across KZread, yours have really helped me a lot over these past few months. I'm just trying to learn as much as I can about the craft of filmmaking as a South African teenager so that I have majority of knowledge before I actually head off to University and start working. Keep doing what you are doing because your work is loved and appreciated!

    I truly believe it doesn't matter about the budget. Anyone can have their style. Anyone can create. Anyone can achieve. Like Nolan, people can grow. No matter their background. Loved this structured video, hope to see more with other directors from the past! Have a Happy Halloween. Or late Halloween because today is November First.

    Great analysis, thanks! Today, would you recommend young directors rehearse film making by limiting the memory cards to use similarly to save precious film as Nolan did?

    Good question. It really depends on the approach of the director - I've seen successful directors do both. Some rehearse the traditional way and shoot around 3 or 4 takes and move on, others will roll out an entire card in 1 take getting actors to do every variation of a performance that they can possibly think of and then deal with selecting the performance in the edit. Personally I think directors should be more focused. It totally depends on the scene but as a general rule I think directors should know what they want (or at least have a good idea of it), do a rehearsal and then shoot a couple of takes. If you know what you want and are able to communicate that effectively to actors it shouldn't take long to get the performance right. Also, realistically, most directors don't have the budget (ie. time) to be able to shoot tons of takes. Developing a method for getting the desired performance quickly is a skill that should be developed.

    Please discuss Brian De Palma's films in a future video. I think he is severely underrated and is one of the greatest filmmakers of his generation to really nail the notion of visual storytelling. Stylish, innovative, and assured direction as seen from the suspenseful prom sequence from Carrie (1976), the museum scene from Dressed to Kill (1980), the split-screen sequences from Phantom of the Paradise (1974), the brilliant movie-within-a-movie scenes from Body Double (1984), and the entirety of his masterpiece, Blow Out (1981) are all worthy of discussion. When talking about camera work and visual storytelling, Brian De Palma is a must!

    I think Nolan does his best work when his stories are a bit more grounded = lesser budget. The Prestige was, to me, his apex achievement, then his budgets ballooned; the spectacles and visual components got more focus, the actors and dialogue less. That's good once and a while, but I'd love to see him (and his brother) tackle smaller budgets and scopes again.

    Love the video! One piece of feedback I'd recommend: New commentary microphone. In this video, your voice was quite tinny and lacked any low or midrange sound. Also add a pop filter if not already using one to remove the hard sound of "T's" and "P's" Keep up the great work!
