What Lies Behind the Magic of Movie Lighting? Uncover the Secrets of Cinematic Illumination

How much should an audience be able to see on the screen? Should the lighting be bright or dim? Natural or exaggerated? Should it dazzle or remain soft? Is it meant to enhance the actors or reveal every wrinkle and scar on their faces? To make a film successful, the audience must be able to "see." Lighting as a Tool To deem a film's cinematography as "good," a fundamental necessity is ensuring ample lighting on the actors to present them visibly, thereby enhancing and spotlighting their attribut

Nosferatu Sucks!

I'm not a fan of Robert Eggers and he did not win me over with Nosferatu. I will give him credit for the movie's authentic staging and gothic cinematography. However, its uninteresting characters and tired story make Nosferatu an insufferable watch. I left the theatre wondering why Eggers insists on taking himself so seriously. Given his background in production design, it is logical that Eggers would thrive in the realm of design and staging. In Nosferatu, I loved the recreation of 1830s' Germa

Bob Woolsey: I enjoyed this film, but only after I realised I couldn't take it seriously and I had to view it from arm's length. Can I just ask, why did they give Orlok that moustache? I still can't get over it. I loved the artistry of the film, and it's clear that Eggers purposefully doted over every detail... but then there's that moustache! I couldn't take any of his vampiring seriously once I saw it. It's just so bushy and hearty. It doesn't look like it's the same age as the character at all and it makes the design kind of comical for me. I also found Willem Dafoe's character to be comical - mostly because he takes the supernatural stuff so seriously. There were audible laughs in my theatre and I don't think Egger's intended for them. However, when I just suspended my disbelief and went along for the storybook ride, I did have some fun. And that final scene was great.

Nosferatu - The Best Horror Movie of The Century (So Far)

This past boxing day I took my dad to see ‘Nosferatu’, the new movie by director Robert Eggers, staring Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Emma Corrin and Willem Dafoe. My dad is an award-winning cinematographer, and I am a film student, so it just made sense for us to watch the movie on the big screen. It was worth it. The name ‘Nosferatu’ may ring a bell (if you know anything about film history, or are into horror classics, or the art movement called German Expressionism). It is because this stor
