Another example of Steven Spielberg's incredible camera placement, blocking and staging in Munich. In this moving master, he combines six shots in one and makes it look obvious and effortless.

This blocking and camera movement breakdown is from Steven Spielberg's Minority Report. This one's a little different because it's a steadicam shot so the compositions flow very quickly at times. I don't like to call ALL of Spielberg's multi-composition shots oners because,

New blocking and staging breakdown of THIS SHOT from Steven Spielberg's, THE FABELMANS, which has arguably 9 unique compositions or "shots" in 1. It's one of the most complex shots in The Fabelman's, which overall leans a little simpler in the way of staging and camera work than

Here's a fun one. 4 compositions in 1 shot in Steven Spielberg's Minority Report. I like this shot for how it utilizes depth. It's all pans, tilts and focus pulls. There are no zooms, tracks, etc, and yet it's dynamic and tells the story in a really effective way. We don't see

Spielberg may be the perfecter of the moving master, but Michael Curtiz and many others before him were certainly influences and very worthy of study, as this technique used to be more common in pre-80s/90s film and TV.

Fun fact, in 2016 I directed a short film. When we were burning the midnight oil and had a lot of coverage to get through, we threw out 3 or 4 shots and covered the scene through rear and side mirrors. Saved us hours. The film's not perfect, but I still love this little nod to

For me would have to be "Death Trap." It's a masterclass on how to not bore your audience with a single location premise. The lesson here is turn, twist, turn. Keep giving the viewer a reason to watch. Also, Michael Caine and Christopher Reeve are a hoot.

Interesting. I've always been perplexed by this too. I saw the Universal archival print, which very much had the blues and browns of the 1993 35mm. But it looked very new and cinematic in a way that I had never seen before. I always felt the colors in JP were a bit flat and dull.

Benjamin Button is a great example of this. It's interesting because those 2007 - 2009 digitally shot films also partially look so filmic because DP's were still using film lighting ratios. With the new sensors everyone stopped using big movie lights and "sourcey' ratios.

Loved chatting filmmaking & journalism with Alex Garland.
Garland breaks down the narrative decisions behind his aspect ratio choices; Ex Machina (2.39), Annihilation (2.35), Men (1.85) and Civil War (1.85).
Crazy to think Ex Machina, Garland's first film, is now a decade old.
