don't forget seemingly fail to mention they used a 85,000 dollar lens, so like most things, the camera is important, but alot of the time its the glass that can make or break your footage, i get it sounds cool they used a cheaper more consumer camera, but they seem to forget the part of using a 85,000 dollar lens

it's not even the fact they have a 85k lens@@BrandonPrive1432 , it's more so they have 500k worth of lighting, staff, rigs, location, etc. Just look at apple and their new keynote filmed on iPhone, most of the credit goes to the lighting, gimbal and staff, not the sensor.

This series is so so valuable, can't say that enough. So stoked for part 2

I've been asking this question for years, "Does Hollywood NEED tons of gear, or could they make an amazing movie with 'prosumer' gear?" Thanks for the breakdown. It was a great interview!

Yes the fx3 without tons of gears and expertise would never give such results.

We're at a tipping point now in terms of technology where the image quality of a "small" camera has become virtually indistinguaishable from the high-end ones albeit with a lot of work done in post. This wasn't the case maybe even 5 years ago where the image quality of these consumer/prosumer cameras was vastly inferior. The last time this happend was around 2012 when the Arri Alexa became mainstream and the image became virtually indistinguishable from film.

its most about lightning and the lenses.. those lenses will u cost u 5 times that fx3.. when i am using my expensive cine lens on a old canon mk2.. it will blow away the newest ursa 12k in terms of cinematic look.. so yeah..

That small little mention of film halation changed the way I think of image processing forever for sure! Worth the watch just for it.

i hope this kind of filmmaking becomes a trend. lower budgets and more risktaking. this movie was such a breath of fresh air

Wow. Sony fx3? Discontinued drone? Vintage anamorphic lens? Amazing. That’s art

Thank you, Matti! Using your reach to give us such deep insights with those amazing creatives is insanely valuable. Especially mixed with your own content exploring all the techniques!

Thank you guys! I was fascinated to hear more about this as I went to see the movie BECAUSE it was shot on a consumer camera. The funny thing was I was immersed immediately in the story so I forgot to look at it from that lens lol. This was a great conversation and I can't WAIT for the behind the scenes video!!!! Thanks again, guys ❤

Love these Matti! These videos are so helpful and informative! Between you and Mark Bone, I think you're easily the best film educators on KZread. I'm always learning new stuff from you two!

Thank you for making this video, its definitely inspirational for all filmmakers. Its never about the gear, its the person using the gear. Everyone make your movie!

Great interview, Oren really speaks well and hits all of the questions he was asked on the nose. He’s super intricate yet to the point with his responses.

What a great guy, he was very passionate about the project, and it shows the way he speaks of it! Keep these coming! Love that you're connecting with the big leagues in cinema for this type of content!

Please keep doing more of these videos Matti ! Love this kind of content, coming straight from the source it's self !

Congrats on getting this interview! Quality, insightful, and entertaining content. Can’t wait for Pt. 2

This is a fantastic interview. I was so stoked to hear questions asked about how the efficiencies afforded by the gear impacted production workflow and actor's performances, not just technical gear talk.

This is an AWESOME interview and I'm loving these BTS, be real, dig deep kinda talks. And what a movie. We were in the same boat with you guys - we use Sony exclusively at work and knew the FX3 was a contender for big work. But I was still blown away that they used it for a Hollywood movie. I'm still shaking my head. Oh - and the #human video - ooohhh that stokes me out!

Finally! A great piece of content that gives us more details of what the FX3 was like while filming the creator. Amazing Matti!

That was epic and so incredibly inspiring!! Well done to the crew for that visual masterpiece 🎉👏🏽

Just bought a ticket for this movie just because of the interview! Good conversation Matti!

Heck yes 🙌🏻 you will love it

Thank you, Matti! Highly informative I'd say! All the love from India! We watched it in cinemas two weeks back. Brilliant movie! When hot shot filmmakers are so adamant about using only IMAX or other big cinema cameras, I think they should learn a thing or two from these guys. The freedom a filmmaker gets by using a smaller camera is huge. It gives the flexibility to experiment more and not limit themselves from doing shots that are riskier or impossible with a bigger rig, which means more money on production. This team proved that great movies can also be done with prosumer level cameras. Kudos to the crew who made such a beautiful movie. So lucky to be part of the movie.

Man, your channel turned to such high value content ! Keep pushing this way !

Matti, beyond excited for your Human Video Co. I got into the Tribeca Film Festival with an a7s II last year. I live in Vancouver so I’m thrilled for your contest 🙌🏽 great interview too, have fx3 coming next week

Great to see this new kind of content I stopped watching KZread tutorials and kit content a long time ago, I’ll be tuning back in for more Matty!

Been so long waiting for this!! Finally!!! Thanks!!❤

This was so interesting! Love that new approach that you sharing with all those people and talking about the work! Much much appreciated! Keep the hard work, and share the knowledge ☺️

AMAZING interview man! this film and Gareth and Oren are definitely inspirational for scrappy indie filmmakers. By downscaling their tooling to a more prosumer level, they seemed to allow for more creative freedom in the storytelling.

Thanks for this Matti!! Absolute gold!! Waiting for the deepdive!!

This was the best conversation about filmmaking choices for "The Creator" - more than just the camera, which all along I thought was the case.

I loved "Raw footage is raw footage, I think what you're referring to are the built in LUTs that Red, Arri, and others have as a "look" but that's all done with the color grading". Finally someone in the professional industry out here schooling the KZreadrs on the "look" hahahaha. Cameras are like everything else in the world... people get that placebo effect going when they see a brand or big $$$... Then someone like this comes along and films a blockbuster Hollywood hit on a $4k camera with some good glass and throws a wrench in everyones wheels!

Very true. But what everyone needs to understand is that each camera kitted out with a lens probably cost $80K.

Man idk why but the shot of the robot on the scooter got stuck on my brain since watching it, its something so mundane yet it tell so much about the world they live in. The worldbuilding in this film is something that i've never seen before

Great job Matti! This was so encouraging and informative. It gets me excited about filmmaking again.

What a precious interview, thanks for this Matti ❤

This is pure gold. I can’t wait for a deep dive on this one.

And then your realize that the lens do a lot of the heavy lifting and create the cinematic format he desired. Camera is amazing, the lenses that were used are even more incredible. Thank you for this video!

thank you for the amazing access you are giving us. Much appreciated!!

This is one of the best series about filmmaking out there! Keep it up Matti!

This is such a great series, Matti! Thank you for sharing!

Such a great video, thanks a lot Matti and Oren!

This movie- and how it was made- is fascinating and exciting for the future of cinema, but I think a lot of vloggers and content creators are getting ahead of themselves with all these “all you need to make a blockbuster movie is an FX3” articles and videos. They had an army of VFX artists from ILM to help realize this vision, not to mention very expensive and inaccessible lenses, access to highly remote and difficult locations, etc. As DIY as the production was compared to the average big budget FX-driven film, this still would not have happened without the budget and resources of a major studio backing it

Also helps to have a compelling script or content. KZreadrs "reacting" to other content, or lip syncing to other content while wearing a funny outfit doesn't cut it.

Amazing interview. Thank you Matti and Oren!

wow I didn't want this interview to end! Thanks Matti, I cannot wait for part ii!

thank you matti for sharing this type of behind the camera stories....and thank you oren for sharing all the knowledge and exiting facts about what smaller camera and latest technology can do ...📷♥

Matti, as a "soloprenuer" who started my little production company 3 years ago... I just want to say thank you. This conversation really just brings me joy and hope in where I am and where I'm headed, currently with my fx3 :) lol

Just come across this interview, I am sucking up all things The Creator. It is beyond inspiring to see such wonderful imagery and storytelling be accomplished with such equipment. Right now an FX3 is out of my budget but I have a Fujifilm X-T5 and Canon RP and this has put a spark in me. I'll be out using what I got and working on my visual language and my writing. A whole generation of filmmakers are going to be born from this.

Thank you to gave us opportunity to watch this wonderful interview!

so good! thank you Matti and Oren!!!

I loved hearing about how many camera rig setups they had. That's brilliant!

I love the series your doing, keep up the amazing work !

i really wish these podcasts were available on spotify! Great video as always

Glad to hear someone else also agrees that the way you feel about how your rig looks is actually very inportant and impacts motivation to shoot. 😁👌

Awesome video Matti! “Gracias” from Chile!!

Amazing interview. My main takeaway is that the camera is basically just the tool to capture the footage. The grandiose look of the film is actually due to the full power of Disney’s best technicians doing amazing work, so let’s give due credit! Eagerly awaiting part 2 of this interview!

Best series on KZread. Thank you Matti.

Absolutely inspiring. Gotta see this film now.

Thank you for this, Matt! This is so great conversation and it helps me a lot with my shooting experience. I´ve been thinking about getting an FX3 camera for a long time, but this is just one big plus for me. Can´t wait for more!

You missing the whole point. Is not the Fx3 or the Fx100 or Red2000 Is the power of your script! A powerful script is the real expensive tool for filmaking. Something that you can't buy. So instead of waiting for the Fx3 write a script and shoot it with your phone!

Love your content and this interview❤️ Sending love from Cambodia 🇰🇭 Keep up the good work

I remember a DP roundtable with Rogers Deakins, who is by far my favorite DP in the world (his last movie, Empire of light, just the B-roll made me tear up). The roundtable host said, "Film or digital?" and everyone said a strong preference. Deakins simply stated, "if you were to give me a phone, I could make my movie anyway." 2049 was shot with two cameras, all internal colors (so color-timed instead of graded) even for the orange desert stuff. Love that Sony is bringing that philosophy and enabling more directors to get out there and just film! Sony should reach out to him tbh

Knowing it was an FX3 made me love the movie 1000000X more in theaters - can't wait to purchase it.

People care about content, not pixels, tiktokers with iphones and gamers with stream cameras are wining more money than videographers with equipment worth a house. I would watch a good movie from 1930 rather than a trash one from 2023 that was filmed with the best and latest camera and lenses.

@@Alan-cl2ix Amen my friend!

From the 20 years i spent on films sets, what i value most (aside from the job I had to accomplish) is watching crew members at work, combining ideas, observing one another, preparing, explaining. All this "detail" material taught me so much. And when i discovered that a Director of photography literary holds the image quality in his hands and mind, i thought "When your shift is done, have a chat with the DP about [this] and [that] because there is still one question in your head about those things, and only he can bring some light on.". Oren Soffer just illustrated that to the perfection, as he brought us enough of his global knowledge so we can now understand many more of what they have done before and during the filming. And i would advise all aspiring cinema-makers, no matter their actual jobs and no matter their ideal jobs, to just shut the *fox* up and listen, and watch, and absorb, and memorize, and analyse, and widen their "angles" (fields of image, fields of sound, fields of thoughts,fields of raw and processed data... Thank you Matti for starting such a puzzle-documentary about cinematograph, this is a matter of passion(s) and can never have enough of passionate talented professionals to take us higher and higher. Eagerly waiting for the next one ! ✋️🙂👌

This is so good, thank you!

I always did this on my gigs, always trying to push smaller cameras to their limits, producing beautiful cinema worth imagery. And although unfortunately I didn't make it to Hollywood, glad to see someone who did pushing these edges as well. Congrats.

Thanks for this great interview with Oren Soffer. After seeing "The Creator" I have really been excited about the idea of shooting with the FX3. Sure, it's just a tool. But, the fact that it was used on a big scifi movie is pretty inspirational. EDIT: I can't wait for the BTS on The Creator. That will be so exciting. I'm sure there will be a lot of learn from their process of shooting it with the FX3.

Can’t wait to see part 2 with all the bts clips😍 thanks for this video series matti, it’s amazing 🤩🙏🏻
