Looking forward to seeing this!
Just saw “days” and “weeks” recently. Both solid films, the first being the best, but not by a huge margin. Anticipating “years”.
28 Decades Later will be shot in 13:1 surround vision, captured on the director’s watch. And still win twenty awards.
I feel bad for the people having to carry that setup.
Pretty lightweight compared to the traditional alternative, no?
Isn’t this just an upgraded Matrix rig?
Exactly:
« Boyle says the 20-phone setup helped them create “poor man’s bullet time.” »
Poor man’s? Those things cost more than what they originally used in the matrix. That’s rich man’s bullet time.
Even if you buy them used? Idk
Its a downgraded one
Yeah, they were using Nokias back then
Is that true?
No just a joke they use Nokias throughout the series because its a late 90’s/early 00s film
Boyle uses low budget guerilla film techniques for feature films sometimes. 28 Days was the first feature shot on consumer tape cameras, Canon X1 I think, and they compensated by using a lot of them at once.
Most expensive scene was an empty bridge in London at 5:30AM, IIRC, and they only had a few minutes to pull it off. Lots of cheap cameras gives you options, if you can work with resolution and lens and colourspace issues.
I’ve always wondered how such a moderately budgeted movie pulled off the empty bridge
Knowing which palms to grease cuts costs significantly
