Contextual Research

Roger Deakins is a renowned cinematographer known for his use of lighting, camera movement, and depth of field to create three-dimensional shots. The document discusses Deakins' interview about filming No Country for Old Men, noting he often shoots with fewer shots than planned by reusing angles. The writer intends to apply this technique in their short film. Research was also conducted on directors Quentin Tarantino, Edgar Wright, Christopher Nolan, and action director Chad Stahelski to inform filming and genre choices. Contextual influences from the researched filmmakers will be experimentation with lighting, music, and action scenes.
