It’s easy to think of it as a ghost film when you look at a title. In fact, it is talking about two different equipment for film production, film or digital?
Directors and photographers are relatively trendy and like to accept new equipment and new things, so they are more likely to accept numbers. Just like David Fincher, Cameron, the director of the millionaire of the poor and rich, some directors think that digital photography is like delicious and delicious. Junk food, people don't like it after a period of time after eating it. It disappears like fireworks. It represents Nolan as the director and Nolan's photographer.
The director believes that Avatar needs 3d because his work needs to be presented in this way and rebuild a whole new world. However, the movies created by 3d imaging technology have sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and they are always 3d, without realizing whether the film is the real one. Need, but to cater to the taste of the mouth and earn the box office, so Nolan hates this very much. On the contrary, film photography requires a lot of photographers, because after the film is shot, you can only change to the next roll and play back the work. The time must wait until the next day, so the photographer can only know the picture through imagination the day before. The digital photography is on-the-go, giving the director more room to play. If the shooting is not good, it can be changed immediately. This is not the case with film. given. Moreover, digital photography allows you to do more, add more, and fine-tune more in the later stage, rather than film, which can only be done by adjusting the overall film tone.
Seeing the strict division of labor in filmmaking in Western countries, it is no wonder that their film industry has developed so maturely. Everyone strives to do better in their own positions. There is no best. And the most important thing is their reward mechanism. Almost every filmmaker wants more or less recognition of his work and awards, just like their highest honor award Oscar.
The popularization of electronic technology has led to more than a few people who can afford to make movies. People who love movies can use 5d or 7d, and ordinary people can even use Apple mobile phones to complete their small movies. When the tools are popular, many Anyone can use it, which actually brought a lot of impact to professional filmmakers. It's more common just like photography. Many people may say that such popularization is not a good thing, but in fact it is not. This is a bad thing. The shortening of the shooting cycle makes many people pay little attention to quality issues.
Is film photography going to die? In fact, it won’t. Lucas said in the first 20 years that the film era would die, but there are still film portraits like Nolan, who insist on using film, because film shows us what digital can’t. The experience brought is an indescribable beauty.
Whether it is film or digital, this is just a technology, and it is humans that actually manipulate this technology. Just do it with your heart.
