The visuals do so much of the storytelling.

WE NEED GAFFERS. WE NEED PROPER LIGHTING. WE ARE LOSING RECIPES.

Arg so sorry but I disagree🙈 I think it’s executive/corporate decisions. It’s the same reason the costuming falls flat EVERYTIME in Netflix productions.

There's a reason Casablanca is still a classic. The use of light and shadow was groundbreaking and also just beautiful

I miss warmth in movies. Everything feels soulless. Like I don’t wanna be in a film , I want to see a perspective. To me Wicked *almost* gets it. But it needs warmth and saturation. But we probably won’t get it bc of visual effects

i would guess it has more to do with the use of cheap visual effects. vfx companies try to put in the lowest bids in order to get projects, so when a vfx heavy scene is very dark, it means that they probably ran out of time or money

I saw The Sound of Music 4K restoration on the big screen last week for the 60th anniversary, and the lighting/cinematography is off the charts. At times it’s like you’re watching a moving chiaroscuro painting. Insanely beautiful.

Covid, strikes, and studio mismanagement/negligence has killed alot of what makes cinema capital-C Cinema. Alot of industry veterans or just knowledgeable workers have been leaving the film industry because of the job instability and move on to new careers or maybe teach at uni. Add on the fact that Cali has become more expensive to live and less filmmaker friendly it's not shocking that film quality has been dwindling when below the line has migrated in mass and aren't recommending or guiding newcomers.

I watched Companion, and while I thought it was a pretty decent movie my god it was shot so fucking boring

There are still a bunch of phenomenal cinematographers creating amazing work, but a lot of what you’re talking about is truly the change from shooting on film to moving to primarily digital. And while yes film still exists, it’s incredibly expensive and not as “efficient” and the big studios are pretty adverse to doing that, when they can save money / get instant gratification of playback. But if you watch the more indie / non blockbuster movies, you’ll likely find more of the uniqueness you’re craving!

I cannot stand modern lighting, lazy cinematography and the horrendous hard orange & teal w washy grays color grading. We need the movie magic back.

The difference is that movies used to be art for the sake of sharing art woth the viewer, now they are a junk food product to be mass produced with the superblend of sugar, salt, and msg in place of substance and art.
