The original Terminator is great. One of the best color noir ever shot. I love how gritty it is. I wonder what lenses he used. Primo or Super Speeds?

Feli di Giorgio Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) I think a lot of what makes Vertigo so great is the combination of cinematography and art direction working together. Lots of symbolism in the choice of color and lighting in this film Edited May 6, 2020 by Feli di Giorgio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew J. Walker Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Will always be my favorite picture. Moody blue lighting that brings out the fictional sort of nightmarish night time feel, quiet suburban neighborhood which makes the viewer feel comfortable and vulnerable enough to believe what they are seeing, groundbreaking low budget cinematography and editing, and of course the beautiful pastel colors of the Eastman 5247 that so many films of it's time were shot using. Severely underrated cinematography wise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it just spat out a Rec.709 image, I'm sure it's dynamic range was limiting for Dod Mantle, BSC, ASC. I've not seen it since watching it on CRT television when it came out. This would be a fun re-watch. Edited May 11, 2020 by Stephen Sanchez title correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a fun re-watch. It's 1/3" 4:3 PAL sensor deinterlaced and then cropped to 1.85:1 I don't think they used anamorphics. Then Rec 709 4:2:0 DV (I heard tell there was some Sony DSR500 in the mix - which was a 16:9 2/3" sensor, I don't think it was completley shot on the XL1) I've seen it projected on 35mm and watched one of the Digi-Beta master tape's. Both were very grungy looking maybe only 300 or 400 lines of resolution all told.... But the images are incredibly striking and resonant...the low res gives the images a level of abstraction that almost makes them look like water colours. It's the perfect example of a film with cinematography that perfectly suits the subject matter. Sure better formats would look technically "better" but that misses the point. The flaws are the image... Also the recent news footage of London looks a lot like this so it feels resonant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacob larsen Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I always felt this ending-frame elevated the whole movie to a special level. I have never seen it topped anywhere, ever (Not even in the other StarWars movies) Almost like how a theater-play is ended with the curtain-call. Cinematically simple. And no fancy coloring or overly 'artsy' look. Just a clear memorable frame of the heroes to let the audience end the journey with ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that had been shot in the UK it would have been grey on grey. Convert it, lets see you vision. Edited May 28, 2020 by Daniel D.

Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 (edited) I sometimes shoot a movie with a still cam for timing and comp practice. Lots of nice stills in Godzilla https://danieldteolijrarchivalcollection.wordpress.com/2017/08/13/the-godzilla/ I did another one on The Train. Have not got around to post processing it.
