In animation, there's a famous freeze-frame technique where the animation suddenly shifts to a pastel style, usually used to emphasize a shot. It was invented by anime legend Osamu Dezaki, who coined the phrase "postcard memories."
This is a complete audiovisual encyclopedia about the Freeze Frame in Filmmaking process. The Ultimate guide. Thousand Thanks StudioBinder for this Inspiring video. Very Useful and Inspiring.💯💯💯💯
I'm starting to make mini UA-cam reviews and began watching these. They're making every movie I watch more enjoyable. I think the average person doesn't appreciate the magic happening in movies. I sure didn't.
Sometimes i wish i was ignorant of all that goes into it, just fully immersed in the magic with no critical inner voice ..i can remember that feeling from when i was young and watching classics for the first time..
A film-making technique with its own song: "Freeze-Frame" is a song written by Seth Justman and Peter Wolf for the J. Geils Band. It was first released as the opening track on the chart-topping 1981 album of the same name.
Failsafe is another movie that uses the Freeze Frame to highlight the severity of the pending nuclear disaster. The ending is very chilling, without showing the catastrophe, we see the last moments of the people of the Big Apple before we know what will hit. Freeze Frames are good in my opinion but should be used for narrations in movies. In the television show, the Dukes of Hazzard, it was use at the beginning and the end of the acts between commercials. In fact many television shows in the 50s through the 80s used freeze frame in the show as well as in the credits. That would be a good follow up to freeze frames in television shows. For my production, I don't think it would work but having this knowledge means that if I use it, I have a better understanding of how to deploy it. Thanks Studio Binder for a great lesson!!! All the best!!!
Studio Binder! You’re giving film schools and other film related channels a serious run for their money! Can we have a video of film IP rights? You guys are amazing. Keep up the amazing work.
Have you shown the technique of extreme close-ups? I think there are more than meets the eye! Thank you so much for another magnificent Ultimate Guide!
peter jackson uses them heavily in King Kong (cannibalism scene) and more slightly in LOTR. Was expecting the best one, i.e. the assassination of jesse james and you did not disappoint, masterwork of an ending due to these freeze frames.
When the end Blood Debts came on, i thought for sure, "Wow, Studio Binder even found a redeeming quality of this ending!" Only to hear that even Studio Binder has nothing to say about that one 😅
*Hey Studiobinder could ya please maka video on Semiotics, Iconography, Autuer Theory, High Cultural, Low Cultural, Cultural Artifacts, and Psychology in Film, these are very essential subjects in the film study.❤*
One of my favorites is the last frame of The Wrestler as he jumps off the top rope. Does he live or die; you decide. Does it mattter since he's doing what he loves, etc. It sums up all of the conflicts in the movie.
Recent film Challengers, there are only three freeze frames there. I counted lol - but yeah, it showed the end of each acts I suppose. Need to watch that again to come up with another explanation on that.^^
10:45 the freezeframe of the 'hands on the idol' in King of Comedy reminds me of the scene in Persona where the boys hands touch the idol on the screen

Recently I rewatch Mission Impossible Fallout and there's a scene where Tom Cruise jumps out of a building and continue running to chase the main villain, and in that scene, they record the whole view of Tom and the whole area and buildings around him. Should I asked permission for every building if I record them in my movie? Especially the one with company name on the building? I really want to capture the city view in my project.
The final freeze frame shot with fanfare in Death Proof is inspired by many old school Shaw Brothers kung fu films which would end in a similar manner.
It's funny how quick I grew tired of this technique. I know it's a well made video about the technique, but I was tired of freeze frames by the halfway point.
@@StudioBinder And have an interesting usage of freeze frames. A few freeze frames show follow up in the fate of characters. I just thought someone might remember this unusual example)

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing.
i fully expect this to be 50% talking abt Scorsese's movies
And sure enough, you were right! 😄
Same. I think there are freeze frames in almost all of his movies
We had to NOT show so many good ones from Scorsese and Schoonmaker!
Yeah，his freeze frames are so memorable.
Video Quality never stops improving
Thanks! We try.

@@StudioBinder I must have seen it but I'll see it again!
Please make a video on simultaneous timelines happening in a film and how it’s done effectively (Star Wars rogue one for example)
Great idea and thanks for the suggestion!
Inception..

Glad we could comply!

Any time!

Will do!
It’s such an effective technique that has unfortunately been soured by parodies and memes. But the good ones still hit!
Totally agree.

While Bender’s freeze frame ending shot is certainly one of the most iconic, the one that first pops in my head is Flash Gordon 1980.
I never understood freeze frames but l do thanks Studiobinder

Wow, a clip from Blood Debts; a true essence of cinema verite
Indeed!
@@StudioBinder Fan of Red Letter Media? 😁
For a future video could you do one on music and how it sets the tone of your show?
The first thing I thought of when I read the title was a mid-air freeze frame of the General Lee from Duke of Hazzard
another master class and amazing movies selection ❤
Thanks so much! You've inspired me with my latest video. 👏👏👏
Wonderful! Glad we could help.
Knowing who is dressed as Father Christmas in Hot Fuzz makes that freeze so much better…
When people find out...!

You gained a new subscriber amazing effort much needed video
Welcome to the SB family!
Best: Dukes of Hazzard. Freeze frame to get a perfect look of the General Lee 😊
I like their analysis very much 😊
Thanks! This one was fun to make.
A great channel loved it ❤
Thanks!
Thank you, don't forget English subtitles ❤❤
Sorry, they should be added now.
What's the movie by Paul Thomas Anderson mentioned at about 12:00?
Magnolia. Such a good film!
Probably the most dramatic concept in filmaking
I have a question guys if I write and direct a movie will I be selfish if am one of the cast or the lead role??
The ending of
"Fist of Fury".
Wonder whose movies Bruce Lee was noticing...
I would like to know who the voiceover actor is. Can anyone tell me please?
Recently I rewatch Mission Impossible Fallout and there's a scene where Tom Cruise jumps out of a building and continue running to chase the main villain, and in that scene, they record the whole view of Tom and the whole area and buildings around him. Should I asked permission for every building if I record them in my movie? Especially the one with company name on the building? I really want to capture the city view in my project.
I hope I want a video on set construction and set contracter
Great suggestion!
Scenes in Blow Out(1981) are so easy and natural to use in this kind of filmmaking videos !
The final freeze frame shot with fanfare in Death Proof is inspired by many old school Shaw Brothers kung fu films which would end in a similar manner.
Totally! Tarantino loves his homages.
This whole video could be about “Civil War”. It makes great use of freeze frames
Great point! Really interesting applications in that movie.
This is fundamental
Thanks!
12:45 Red Letter Media reference?
You're awesome guys
Thanks!
Please make the next video about climax
Thanks for the awesome videos 🌍🌟💖
Glad you like them!
Honourable mention: Fists of Fury.
Absolutely!
have a gr8 day
I should probably actually watch a film instead of learning about how they work for a change.
It's funny how quick I grew tired of this technique. I know it's a well made video about the technique, but I was tired of freeze frames by the halfway point.
Supernatural "French mistake" - freeze frame, turn to black, cut 😅
Yeah new knowledge 🎉
Glad to hear it! We thought this was a cool topic.
Make a video about how to make psycho film
Great suggestion!
If you're thinking about the last freeze frame of Phir Hera Pheri we can be friends
At the moment that the frame froze, he knew, he'd F'ed up!
Exactly!
ultimate freeze frame is 400 blows. it is a statement, a question mark, a sledgehammer.
Blood Debts? oH MY GAAAAAWWWWWD
Had to do it.
When you can, please add subtitles. If available in Spanish, even better.
They should be working now.
@@StudioBinder Thank you, the video is awesome.
Super 👌
Thanks for watching!
My favorite Harry Potter movies ends with my least favorite freeze frame of all time.
The rest of the movie is great!
🎥🥶🖼️
❤
It seems to me that freeze frames and breaking the fourth wall go hand in hand:
ua-cam.com/video/9nfgRf2A0Tc/v-deo.htmlsi=EOmcB87ntZNTfRLF
Makes sense, right? Freeze frames themselves have a fourth-wall-breaking effect.
👌
Thanks!
How to properly pitch a script
Good idea! Thanks for the suggestion.
Next episode: The record scratch.
You forgot ‘Three Amigos’.
We had so many we wanted to include!
Frame stops, Music starts, that's a memory
Run Lola, Run.
Great film!
