Cool video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great Compilation, thank you David!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
It seems obvious to me that what the backlighting really does here is cause the beer to glow relative to her face. Her face, while flatteringly lit, still remains relatively darker. Since the beer is a translucent subject, shining light through it from behind is a great way to provide its key lighting. It’s a great study in the relationship between story, composition, and lighting.
Yes! I absolutely agree! Thank you for your insightful comment.
Looking forward to seeing The Creator!
Me too. I can't wait. I believe it will be released on the 20th in theaters in Japan.
@@illectricsheep Thanks 👍
Neil a director of his own mind thanks for acknowledging him
Totally agree. Neill Blomkamp is also an inspiring director. 'District 9' blew my mind when it was released. The story and production process were amazing.
Do you think Gareth Edwards' production blueprint would be useful for your own independent film project?
I first saw Monsters when it came out. I find him very inspiring. If you look at how he’s shot The Creator with a camera that’s £4000, that’s great. If you like looking up indie film makers, have you researched Lloyd Kaufman?
Thanks for the productive comment! I totally agree with you; Edwards' process is indeed inspiring. It makes you want to grab a Sony FX3 and start shooting something, right? And yeah, Lloyd Kaufman is a legend in the indie film scene. I haven't had a chance to research him yet, but thanks for sharing his name.@@METALUNICORNLTD
I'm heading to Tokyo / Kamakura this year to shoot an indie feature, a spy thriller. I'm in touch with the camera team of The Creator to figure out how to best configure the rig with FX3 for Time Code, etc. Really nice guys. Even Oren (DP) replied within hours. I own a RED Komodo but given the constraints on the shoot-ability to light and deliver enough exposure to the RED sensor-we're using the FX3 for 12,800 iso capability (external ProRes RAW). I'm writing strategically for specific locations, blocking, and lighting for a fast production focusing on performances. So when it comes to tech, The Creator has definitely changed how I'm going to work on the next project. Thanks for the video!
Wow! Sounds like a lovely adventure. Japan is a great location to use as a backdrop for a film. I think getting in touch with Oren and team was a very smart thing to do. Also, swapping out the RED for the FX3 will definitely enhance your workflow in terms of the use of light, etc. "The Creator" (watched it again this evening) and even more so "Monsters" is a great blueprint for an indie shoot, it’s exactly what I want do on my next shoot as well. Good luck and keep me posted! Thanks for sharing! Here are my notes from "Monsters," it looks like you have basically followed the same strategy: During Gareth Edwards' talk at SXSW on screenwriting, he shared his approach to writing the screenplay for "Monsters." He emphasized the importance of keeping the process organic and flexible. Here is a breakdown of his key points for shooting a script: 1. Separating Physical and Emotional Journeys: Edwards chose to distinguish between the physical journey of the characters and their inner emotional journey. He wrote the physical events of the story in black ink and the emotional moments in blue ink. This separation allowed him to maintain flexibility in merging the two aspects later on. 2. Prioritizing Visual Interest: While traveling through different locations, including Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Texas, Edwards and his team looked for visually interesting elements in each place. They sought out events like floods, protests, or demolitions that could enhance visual storytelling. 3. Improvisation and Creative Exploration: Actors Scoot and Whitney, who play the main characters, were given the freedom to improvise their way through the movie. Edwards and the team would drive around the locations and adapt the script to fit the physical and emotional moments they encountered. This process allowed for spontaneity and creativity. 4. Adapting the Script on the Go: Instead of rigidly following a pre-determined script, Edwards and his team would match the physical events happening in a location with the corresponding point in the story. Then, they would determine the emotional beats that could take place in that setting. This iterative approach enabled them to craft the story as they went along, making adjustments based on the available resources and locations. 5. A Creative and Rewarding Experience: Edwards described this approach as one of the most creative experiences he had ever had. The flexibility and improvisational nature of the process allowed for a dynamic collaboration between the director, actors, and the environment, resulting in a unique and organic film.@@bongissh

Many languages does Paul speak?
Not exactly sure but I think he speaks at least 3 or 4!
When I watch "avengers infinity war" is like I am watching a computer game. I hate it in new movies. It is so poor an unrealistic. Of course shooting at a real place is always a better choice.
Totally get where you're coming from! CGI and visual effects have their place, but sometimes it's nice to see the real deal on the screen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, appreciate it!
Another great video! I love the Hunter Seeker assassination attempt scene. Would love to hear your input on that scene!
Thanks for the kind comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and the Hunter Seeker assassination attempt scene in Dune. The scene does a good job of showing the danger and tension surrounding Paul Atreides as he makes his way. Also, it's so cool to see him in action, defending himself against those deadly little machines. The effects and editing in that scene are top-notch. Overall, it's definitely another standout moment in the movie (a video could be dedicated to that scene itself). Thanks for bringing it up.
I've only read the first book. And I was young at the time, but it stayed with me. The 1984 movie was a rush thru the story and kind of unnecessarily weird. This latest (first) movie was really good IMHO and I've watched it several times. Looking forward to Part 2! Oh, sorry... YES this is one of the BEST scenes in DUNE. (Actually, pretty good in 1984 as well.) Thanks for your UA-cam post! Hoping to see a Navigator in Pt 2....
Sounds like you're a really big fan of Dune, and that's cool to hear! It's great that the first book made such a lasting impression on you, even from a young age. I agree with you about the 1984 movie; while it had its own unique qualities, it did feel rushed and had some strange elements (been a long time since I saw it though). I'm also eagerly looking forward to Part 2. Thank you for your comment and for sharing your enthusiasm for Dune.
OK, the first thing I have to say is how much I appreciate the production value of your look and feel in this video. Frankly, it makes tracking with and staying with a UA-camr so much easier when the lighting is decent/attractive and the audio is really nice to listen to. Thanks!! But, as we all know, Content is the Crown, it rules. Your insights into Wakanda Forever really helped me take my own appreciation of the movie to a deeper level. Thanks!!!
Thanks a lot. I think Wakanda Forever is an underrated movie, so I am glad that my video helps people appreciate it more. If you want more see my Patreon link in the description.
My favorite scene? The one I'm watching at the time! But, seriously, the scene you explained to us is so impressive. And your explanation makes for an even richer experience for me.

Thanks for watching. What is your favorite Dune scene?
every scene when the lady starts screaming. that shit´s my jam
The Gom Jabar sequence, and I love the surrounding scenes too. All the Bene Gesserit stuff is my favourite aspect of the whole thing. And then we go to "Leaving Caladan". And that's glorious too.

Nice video!
Thanks! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
"cynicism of the original trilogy"? I think the original trilogy was a response to the cynicism of the time and brought back black and white good and evil, which is why it resonated so strongly. Now Andor is the one bringing back a true return to the grey area and cynicism of the era that surrounded the original trilogy, and is doing it better than most of everything else today that is also trying to counteract black and white storytelling.
It's great to see storytelling that challenges traditional black-and-white narratives, and I'm excited to see what the series has in store. Thanks again for sharing your insights!

Thanks for watching! Which side are you on, Pádraic's or Colm’s?
I think the way the ISB referred to luthen as Axis is very interesting
I agree. Historical context?
I believe this may be more of a reference to how integral, yet anonymous, leaders of the Rebellion were referred to as focal point that the Rebellion balances on or revolves around, such as Fulcrum from the animated shows.
@ImaDeadMan true I think though it goes very well with the 70s era of andor and a new hope because ww2 in 77 was still in people's minds especially as more got exposed about the allies war crimes and the infer treatment of native Americans in america
I thought the exact same thing especially with the 70s butcheres architecture and the 70s London mall

Nice video! Interesting opinions.👍
Diving into the influences behind the craft is always fascinating! Thanks for this!
I mean, if by "counter culture" you mean "Vietcong" and by "establishment" you mean "The US war in Vietnam", yes. However, you make a vital point: Andor captures, harnesses, and expresses its aesthetic. It is a period piece. And that Period is in and about ANH, ESB, and RotJ. And, that back-to-basics approach was essential. It, like the Original Trilogy, draws from cinematic motivations. Where Lucas reframed David Lean's open deserts, Andor reframes Lucas' THX1138. Where Han shooting first feels not so different from Tuco firing from his bath-tub, Cassian's fights feel more like Deckard flat lining replicants. Where Luke is a WWII torpedo bomber pilot breaking through the flak to sink the enemy flagship, Luthen is what happens when you mix George Smiley with Q-Branch. And, because it's Star Wars drawing not from itself like a staving man whose body is slowly cannibalizing itself, but from outside of the legacy, but adjacent to it, it is vigorous and full of life.
Absolutely agree! I especially like what you said about the back-to-basics approach and motivated cinematic vision ie. David Lean's and Lucas' THX1138. Overall, as you say, Andor gets it right. A masterclass in how to write a TV show.
Hey! Now approaching 1000 subscribers, please subscribe if you haven't already, much appreciated!

I strongly agree with your position on Andor, Obi-Wan, and the Mandalorian. Andor is my favorite star wars show since the empire strikes back. I hope they keep the quality high and bring us many more episodes. This show is proof that Disney still has the magic when they are willing to use it.
I'm with you. They should let Tony Gilroy, Andor showrunner, take over the whole Star Wars universe from this point forward. Thanks for this.

Man! I was thinking the exact same thing. I think the subject deserves a video. Thanks for sharing!
Hey! Now approaching 1000 subscribers, please subscribe if you haven't already, much appreciated!
I give it up a lot to the production design to make if feel like it lines up with Rogue One and the OT. They did a brilliant job as opposed to the laughable Star Trek prequels to TOS that have come out. I know that you can't make it look like the 1960's show, but at least honor the tech they did have and don't surpass it.
Absolutely agree, the production design team on Andor led by Luke Hull knocked it out of the park in terms of the overall aesthetic. As you say, other productions should take a cue. Thanks for this.
I liked the premise of Star Trek Discovery with unique technology and prototype mushroom ship, but the show was executed badly, pacing is so bad that I never finished season 4 and atmosphere is always tense. Strange new worlds is great tho it feels like original series.
@@zljmbo They should have just set Discovery in an alternate universe or just in the future, because trying to shoe horn it into a series set between Enterprise and TOS was a horrible idea and execution.

Here's the thing, Cassian. The man who sees everything is more blessed than cursed. Look at that, here we go. Stand back, let it drip. Look how quickly that's cleaned up. Hard to believe, right? Two minutes. No longer, no shorter. You know why they don't make these anymore? Because they'd rather sell you a brand new system at ten times the price. I mean, how many we got? Sixty? Seventy of them? Just sitting there. Five hundred credits each. People don't look down to where they should. They don't look down, they don't look past the rust. Not us though, eh? Eyes open, possibilities everywhere. Just need to get this cleaned up before Maarva finds us doing this in the house.
A poetic comment indeed. Thanks for sharing.
Clem was great example of positive masculinity, he didn't deserve to die like that. so tragic and cruel

Thanks for joining my channel. I enjoyed making the video.
just going to point out, the rebel alliance wasn't a counter-culture allegory: it was an allegory for the Vietnamese fighting against the US (Empire).
You are absolutely right. Damn...I messed up the video. Thank you for pointing that out though.
@@illectricsheep I wouldn’t say you messed up, the story is very ambiguous and can connect to a lot of stories. History repeats itself
@@DewNotDisturb Yeah! it was the counter-culture that inspired Lucas' ideas! Thanks for that!
yup great point. Just like Anakin saying in the Prequels like George W Bush said on Sept 20, 2001, "you're either with us or your with the terrorists". You're both correct in a sense - it also was/remains counter-culture to side with the Viet Cong or the Taliban. pro tip - check the US/EU/Western vloggers (esp solo females Wandering Emma, Maryjane) in Afghanistan this year on uTube. 99% of what you have heard about the Taliban 2.0 is fake news disseminated by the Empire.
@@KnowledgeDriven Interesting comparsion with counter-culture/Taliban vs. the Empire. Thanks for this.
It also takes a lot of inspiration from THX 1138, one of Lucas earlier works made in the 70s. Really sets the tone and look of the prison arc
So true, you are definitely right. Thanks for pointing that out.
The writers did their homework and went all the way back to not just the beginning of Star Wars, but the beginning of Lucas and worked it in. Its amazing. In that sense it's the truest Star Wars since the original trilogy.
@@user-yl4lf9mh1w I agree that the Andor TV series is a great addition to the Star Wars franchise, and it is impressive that the writers went back to the beginnings of Lucas and incorporated it into the show. The attention to detail is amazing. Thanks for this!
Hey! Now approaching 1000 subscribers, please subscribe if you haven't already, much appreciated!
That's a new perspective that I didn't think would make me like Andor more, thanks for the video!
Yeah! The revisionist themes from the 1970s cinema are a different way into exploring Andor for sure! Thanks!
Hey! Now approaching 1000 subscribers, please subscribe if you haven't already, much appreciated!
First, I would like to point out: Lucas likened America to “the Empire” and the Việt Cộng to “the Resistance” in reference to the events during the Vietnam War. So, I think it was more like Lucas' ideas were inspired by the counter-culure at the time. With that being said, what are your thoughts on the Andor TV series?
