When the Director Makes You Aware of the Camera

Фильм және анимация

Camera movement is an essential piece of a film’s cinematography, and can often become part of a director’s authorial presence. Think Kubrick’s long tracking shots or Fincher’s subjective camera. However, such movement can often defy the narrative, drawing attention to the camera itself, and momentarily fracturing our film viewing experience. Let’s explore the reasons behind these types of camera moves and how they’re used in film.

    Im going to be honest, you've turned film analysis into an art of its own. The work required to get this level of quality and you obviously have taste for days, this is awesome.

    I feel a certain kind of bliss and peace watching your videos. There is his feeling of calmness that comes with the realization that there are people who are willing to slow down and look at small threads of the complex fabric of cinema piece by piece. As an aspiring filmmaker, I FEEL your videos. Your Channel is going to be my Tranquility Hideout. Thank You for it.

    @@fromtheframe Ah really?? I think he is the single most overrated German director! His "Fear eats the soul" did NOT age well, heavy handed "Sozialkitsch", I would say. Schlöndorff and Wenders are MUCH better!

    This video made me laugh in many moments because I'd be thinking about a shot that should be mentioned and you show and talk about those specific shots. 😅 So glad you showed that shot. I was just waiting for the tree shot from Prisoners. It's one of my favorite shots ever. I'll mention the one film that wasn't mentioned. The opening and closing shot of Parasite that slowly booms down from the window to show that they are lower than the ground level. The way they started and ended up with no improvement in their lives. And also a lot of shots in Birdman. It is filled with shots where camera takes a moment to contemplate and process what happened. Great video as always. I love that you pick topics that most people in here aren't talking about and your presentation has gotten even better.
