Handheld close-up wide format

Just like recording life in the 1960s, the language of the lens with a close-up and wide-format lens, and even the first-person perspective, the pictures in many places are full of graininess, which is really immersive. The feeling, the atmosphere was brought out in this way. When the docking was successful for the first time, the hand-held shooting in the control center had a sense of shaking, and the front and rear focus transitions were not smooth, which made the back of the lens have a human flavor; on the weightless device, the moon landing and exiting, etc. all used the first-person lens, Especially the part of the moon landing, coupled with the silent effect, I think it is more suitable to use the first-person perspective. Facing the moon, facing the space, facing the universe, there is only one person's breathing sound, which produces a shocking feeling. I also like the grainy images of many night shots.

The following are some personal favorite pictures, just for personal learning records

There was silence all around except for the cry of the baby

Ditto

The scene of the woman smoking a cigarette, here I start to notice that it is wide format

The scene of participating in the funeral, except for the sound of the coffin falling, was completely silent. I found that the director still liked this way.

silent cry

Why explore the universe? Questions like this were asked in those days

Thick smog, the crash of a friend is also in such smog

hand shaking

Focus transition, not smooth feeling

Between family affection, it forms a double-line contrast with the other side of the radio

after the crash

Smoking woman, smoking here to stabilize mood

before leaving

The conversation before parting, not too provocative

It's hard to say the probability of not coming back

Lonely

parting

The magnificent sight of the rocket taking off

I like some shots with strong vibrations

close-up, eyes

moon landing

silent, out of the cabin

One man's world

first person shot

A man versus the universe

Shadow, I like this picture

The scene of living with daughter flashes

come back, still silent

In the last scene, I feel that the ending is still not very sensational

There isn't a lot of provocative storytelling in the whole movie.
