    Makes a lot of sense. And something everyday people don’t think about.

    The tight shots make the characters more personal/personable unlike the wide shots.

    i felt THE EXACT SAME WAY about LOKI. It was kind of frustrating, everything felt like exposition in the first few episodes and took a while to get used to it. It was a real puzzle for a while but you solved it for me!

      Yeah it was definitely an issue. What’s funny is, the one shot that made me feel the closets to the characters was the final scene in S2 with Loki and Mobius in the past. It was the ONE dialogue scene that was shot quite close up. One of my favorite scenes in the show.

      Yeah but it still is odd because ud expect them to do that at the end of the first season so we start the new season already invested in the characters. Maybe it was a creative choice, with the theme being about stepping backwards in time, that the camera focus on character more in the 3rd act and not the 1st..
      Like the final shot with Mobius was just so fucking gooood and thats the one thats stayed in my mind and its cool because that was a resolution for him.

      @@vihanmandhyan447 Yeah, you could definitely be onto something with that. I think S2’s biggest problem was there was too much story that needed explained away; therefore, leading to the first few episodes being quite exposition heavy and plot focused.
      I also think a lot of the character writing, specifically Sylvie 😐, was super lazy and shallow. They had too much stuff to explain away and not enough time to focus on the character growth and development.

    i also think you can use it for tone and treatment depending on your projects. "Journalistic" movies like ZODIAC and DARK WATER, usually have bare to none ECUs, and most are shot with MIDs and MCUs at closest.

      Yeah, I don’t think ECU’s are absolutely always necessary. An MCU will do. The primary problem I have, honestly, is the focus on scale/set design over character depth and connections.
