Thank you so much for including animated examples. Most don't know how to approach the making of animated films, or are neglectful when it comes to their inclusion (or usually exclusion) when in comes to teaching cinema.
Animation is the purest cinematography when it comes to choices! There's this great anecdote from Kurosawa that I'll paraphrase, but someone asked him we he made a certain shot from a certain angle of an old building and he said something like, "because there was a highway to the left and a shopping mall to the right." Which is to say sometimes cinematography choices are limited by practicality. You might be shooting in a small room or having to get a shot off before daylight runs out, etc. With animation? Most of the time the choice of framing is completely their own! It can be so freeing!
@@filmcrithulk1769 Heck, I'm pretty sure the dolly-zoom transition to/from Anton Ego's flashback in Ratatouille is PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE in live-action.
@@ScaryMason I was also thinking about Roger Rabbit and how they often had to stretch Roger in some scenes so that his eyeline would match up with Hoskins'.
@@IZEASGT I'm not sure if I've seen somebody do it yet, but animation is a great way to take the best of the wide lens and the long lens in the SAME FRAME.
Loving the breadth of examples here! Not just from live action cinema, but from cartoons and anime too. It’s a nice nod to those communities, but it’s also a great way of signifying that these ABC’s matter just as much when you’re not working with an ACTUAL camera.
Anime is often the best example of this because there are really no wasted "shots". It's either hand drawn or hand-animated in CG and so it would be a lot more work to include shots that don't accurately convey the story or action :D
As an English teacher in Spain, I sometimes have to remind students that it's okay to use a simple Subject+Verb+Object sentence. It's not good for showing off, but it's effective and communicative and clear. I feel that's the same thing with the Static Shot.
18:36 "...and communicate their emotions beautifully." *shot of helmet.* Besides being a good joke in the video it's probably why that shot is so funny.
I immediately feel a need to revisit The Raid in particular. I was struck by how good it looks when I recently rewatched it, but it's interesting that Hulk invokes its use of handheld here to emphasise a sense of danger.
Major Props for using Brian David Gilbert AND MLP as (excellent) examples. And successfully conveying the meaning and purposes of Cinematic Language to those of us who only observe it. This was fascinating!
I always missed something in all the film critic videos I watch. Redlettermedia often came the nearest by not always just criticizing a scene "at higher levels", but often connect it back to fundamentals and filmmaker wisdom and craft that is probably more clear and obvious to somebody who was in an AV club or filmschool or has practical experience. My point being, I love your video, it's great and by teaching the building blocks in themselves in a competent and entertaining manner, refined and focused the way I interact with the genre on UA-cam. Like Geralt in Witcher 3 said (probably paraphrasing), a real master (not that I am one) never forgets the fundamentals. Bend them, break them, warp them, whatever works for your project, but never do so without a deep and solid understanding of those fundamentals and basics. Obviously, that goes for pretty much any craft, skill or art. Thank you ❤️
This is the best, most comprehensive explanation I've seen yet! And I've watched *DOZENS* of UA-cam videos trying to find a cohesive video such as this one! Thank you!
Excellent video, thanks! If I might suggest something: when you use many examples to illustrate your points like you do here, it could be nice if you wrote the movie's title in an unobtrusive corner of the screen so we can pause or go back to look them up if we want. Among others, there's this cool shot around 27 mins, following a woman with a sword in a bright red hallway. I'd like to know what that's from, if anyone can enlighten me!
Thank you for saying! We were sort of going for the "pretty music over clips" fake out in the beginning. It's not that I don't enjoy those kinds of videos, I just think there's a much bigger range to cinematography than "insanely pretty landscape shots at magic hour." Again, it's sort of a video about how Shot Reverse Shot is more important than anything!
@@filmcrithulk1769 The use of both "good" and "bad" films (e.g. a film like The Room appearing without judgement), as well as High Art (Proper Cinema) and Low Art (UA-cam videos about Kirby), was pretty amazing, honestly. It got a chuckle out of me several times (BDG, McElroy animations, and the aforementioned Room), but the way it emphasises the universal nature of these shots, and how they seep into everything--whether intentionally or not--really brings home the larger point of cinematography as A Language. Great video overall, but I *thoroughly* enjoyed those shot selections!
Please PLEAS PLEASE PLEASE do a video essay version of the Actions scene essay, which is probably the best breakdown of action scenes avaliable on the internet.
Years ago I tried to make a film with my friends but never bothered to actually go through with it despite VERY carefully planning out all the little details, including camera shot angles and stuff (and what would need to be improved based on certain actors personalities and what would need to be written ect.) Its good to know that, I had the right idea when coming up with some of this stuff. As in I had ideas for purposeful shots when needed but otherwise had a desire to just use basic shots for scenes that didn't demand too much intensity. Granted I'm a very visual learner (and have actively watched quite a handful of films myself) so maybe that's why I sort of planned this stuff naturally, but having my ideas be put to words like this is just...inspiring I guess... Who knows, I might decide to go through with that abandoned film project...I just need to ensure that I actually am commited so I don't become "The boy who cried film" to my friends. All your vids and essays are great btw! (I say this as someone who has very different politics to you, even if I don't agree with every assessment you make you almost always give me something new and insightful to think about! I'm so glad I found you quite a while ago! :D)
I remember reading this in essey form, and absolutely adoring it, but watching it with all kinds of impressive examples makes it so, SO much better. Thanks!
Great vid Hulk. One little nitpick. Blue’s complementary color isn’t yellow. It’s orange. Yellow’s is purple. Red’s is green ( a la Christmas). So one and so forth. At least according to color theory. Yes color is a theory. Due to light waves and atmosphere and whole bunch of other factors.
Wow! That's a lot! I know there's many things that are complex and require a lot of study to understand, but this is FAR more what I expected from cinematography!
You would think that with all kinds of film students and film people out there, there would be more explainer videos on cinematography. Thank you for this video.
Good stuff. I disagree with a point you made around 19:19 regarding Richard looking away from the camera (eat pray love). I understand that it maybe more enjoyable if we see his eyes so we can engage with Richard more intimately. Yet “the turn away” is a decision for inclusivity; Eye contact carries baggage, audiences can feel accused, judged, or vulnerable during hard talks. In my personal experience, having heart to hearts with friends, turning off the lights uncorks pressure and leaves room for more exploration. Rather than escalating the experience for those who would come along anyways, I think they chose to soften the blow for those who would rather run away.
Technically, Mise-en-scene refers to the "put on stage", the entirety of the construction, which includes the mentioned elements, but it's also -and often mostly- about stuff that is stage equivalent, like say paraphernalia, furniture, environment.
this is an amazing video and I learned so much so I hate to be That Guy and I doubt I'm the first to point it out at 20:38 where they say "blue's complementary color is yellow" bro it's orange
By the way, Hulk, i adored the star wars video and i understand there was a man of steel one, and i would love to watch it . Can i find it somewhere? Or is it just not available anymore?
camera is more important from a practical standpoint, Red's are cheaper than an Alexas but they have a fan that's very loud and can sometimes have technical problems.
@@imveryangryitsnotbutter [looks up from learned tome, over the rims of half-moon spectacles] I think, aha, that you will find that it is "abacus". [sniffs, blows bubbles from smoking pipe]
Tangential, but a curious bit of trivia that's been lost in ultra wide screen 72 inch television sets is that, apparently, the original design of the boxes was that they'd be approximately the size of a human face so that when close ups occured, it would be as if the actor was in the room where your set was located. Television was, literally, built for close ups. I think one thing that's sometimes forgotten by people across multiple art forms is that the human brain is really good at compensating. Yes, headbob exists in real life, your head moves with your gait as you move. But you do not notice this, because your brain compensates for it unless you actively try and turn that compensation off, like deliberately unfocusing your eyes, so for the love of god please stop putting head bob in FPS games it's obnoxious and motion sickness inducing. And, yeah, that applies to angles. If something's entirely in dutch angles, you stop registering them as weird for the duration, it just becomes part of the aesthetic, same as how the mind stops seeing letterboxing, or pillarboxing, or that the film is entirely in black and white, after a while. Only use dutch angles in scenes associated with a specific character, like a visual equivalent of a leitmotif, on the other hand? And you can bet that if they show up in a scene unrelated to him will signify to the audience that the protagonists never escaped Hatch's illusions afterall and he's actually free to carry out his apocalypse. Gods (UK) Being Human S5 is so good. I mean, fuck, I'd recommend the whole five seasons just to build up to the Putting On The Ritz scene alone. I'm not sure all five seasons are needed to build up to that, you could likely just manage with S4-5 considering the character involved in it is introduced in S4, but I'm not sure how much sense S4 makes outside of the context of S3, and S3 outside the context of S1 and 2 but especially 1.
What sucks, analyzing wise is that each of these shots can be a lot of things to different viewers and trying to figure out the right meaning without looking it up can be hell. 16:00 like here. The image didn’t appear flat into you mentioned it and even then.....how does one train their eye to notice the little stuff like this.
24:06 I know he said it’s wrong and I agree but I just can’t see the “wrongness of it.” Perhaps if Wiseau moved more to the left (his right) of the frame it would work? Or maybe he changed his eyeline a few degrees? But my brain kinda made the correction.
Great video! Also I was laughing a lot at subtle gags like shots from SW Holiday special, The Room etc. First video i saw from this channel and definitly worth subscription. You could also add type of film and/or aspect ratio as powerfull fimmaking tool :) DIDN'T YOU WATCH THE LIGHTHOUSE??? And frame rate.
