I love how in 2015 we got the hateful eight, a movie shot in 2:76:1 super wide screen because its an old timey movie and that's an old timey format. Then in 2019 we got the lighthouse which was shot in black and white on 1:19:1 which is super narrow almost tall, also because they wanted to get an old fashioned look. Both films wanted an old look but used completely different aspect ratios to do it.

@gionspenzers 4 жыл бұрын

Although I may be wrong, I think one of the reasons why 2.76:1 and 1.19:1 have an "old look" is because this aspect ratios is very much old. 1.19:1 (which is quite similar to the Fox Movietone aspect ratio [1.2:1]) dates back to the 1920s. 2.76:1 (or known as The Ultra Panavision 70) is also an old aspect ratio dated back to the Late 1950s when widescreen aspect ratio become popular. Although 2.76:1 is newer than 1.19:1, it is still "vintage old" since the standard movie aspect ratio becomes 2.35:1, 2.36:1, 2.39:1, etc.

I love that scene in Pirates of the Caribbean where the ghost pirates are marching under water toward a ship and the film makers used the black bottom of the ship and it's shadow on the ground to to widen the aspect ratio and make the scene feel more epic, and then let the pirates walk through the shadow, appearing to step out of the screen! Gosh, that was so creative!

There is no 4.3 AR, it's 4:3 which is, as you stated correctly, 1.33. Also, 4096x2160 is not 16:9, it's 19:10, aka 4K. Cut away 256 pixels and you get 16:9 (mostly consumer) UHD. Also, regarding 35 mm film stock, most prints with anamorphic projection were vertical pulldown, opposed to what was shown in your animation.

Rounding up beforehand will exaggerate the result a bit more. Anyway thanks for that. I reckon he got lazy for "4.3" haha

@Drunken_Hamster Жыл бұрын

Super Panavision and Univisium are my favorites. I personally hate cinemascope because of how most filmmakers seem to frame with it. They frame as though intending to cut the top and bottom off of a flat image, so it's really only the illusion of width when if fact they are subtracting height. Combine that with the fact that scope looks MUCH smaller on your TV when the end user owns the content post-theater-release, and cinemascope is an all-round degraded experience over anything taller. The least they could do is actually frame shots that take advantage of the width properly, but when they do that, the characters look too small. Scope really isn't meant for characters or even action; it's meant for scenery, at best.

Brainstorm (1983) switched aspect ratio too, from 1.37:1 for the "narrative" portions of the film to 2.35:1 for the "experiential" shots in the film when you're seeing what the characters see when they're wearing the helmets. Director Douglas Trumbull even goes a step further, using standard 35mm film for the "narrative" shots and 70mm film for the "experiential" shots. He also shot the "experiential" shots with an ultra-wide fisheye lens, to be flattened out by a Cinerama-style curved screen. Visionary.

I loved all the examples listed here, didn’t realise so many films have used mixed ratios. A few things worth nothing are: The ratio is 4:3, not 4.3 as you display. Film goes through a cinema camera vertically not horizontally as you illustrate. The anamorphic image is desqueezed horizontally and not squashed vertically as per your graphic. Hateful 8 was 2.76 not 2.75 and films are shot 2.39 not 2.35 since the 1970s. Finally, 2:1 and 9:16 are two increasingly popular ratios today worth mentioning. Regardless of those small corrections, this is a great conversation starter for a discussion on which ratio to choose as filmmakers. I just wanted to make some clarifications for those who want exact numbers.

Hello: I very much enjoyed this. I learned a lot. What came to my mind while listening to you, is that it seems to me that changing aspect ratio is like changing key signatures within a musical composition. When I was studying piano, and playing a piece I was learning for my teacher, I slowed down during during a difficult part, to get thru it. My teacher stopped me and told me: "Learn it in tempo. Do not slow down just to be able to get thru it, slow down because you are making an itelligent choice". The same rings true for me about aspect ratio, use sparingly. Less is more.

@ChrisTempel 5 жыл бұрын

One thing I would add is that 2.35:1 is an old and outdated aspect ratio that hardly anyone uses today. Now, it's 2.40:1 that is popular, but a lot of people still mistakenly call it 2.35. Also would be good to touch on the fact that not every movie needs to be 2.40 to be "cinematic". Most dramas for instance, don't need the extra width, but many filmmakers starting out will just "add the bars" because they think it makes it look like a movie.

In Westworld Season 2, the aspect ratio turns to widescreen whenever the characters are in a simulation. And in Westworld Season 3, we actually learn that the ratio doesn't automatically change when they are in a simulation, but only when the characters KNOW they're in a simulation. Which lead to a very cool moment early in the season!

So 2 things about this video. 1 - 6:10 anyone who thought that history was boring should reconsider being in filmmaking because it, and the rest of the video, was absolutely fascinating to watch and learn about. Thank you for making this. 2 - I love the irony of such a well crafted video about aspect ration very slightly missing the correct ratio of an overlay at 14:34 and can see the video underneath cut in and play around the edges before properly cutting to it. Awesome video. Loved it. Subscribed and will be watching more.

I was so absorbed by 'It Comes At Night' that I didn't notice the shrinking ratio in the finale. Trey Edward Shults' latest film, 'Waves', uses multiple ratios for the purpose of storytelling in a more noticeable, but dramatically effective manner. It was truly beautiful.

There has been a 2.00:1 aspect trend recently. Stranger Things and The Hanmaid's Tale utilize it. A very interesting aspect ratio indeed.

Back when the new television aspect ratio was debated in the pages of American Cinematographer magazine circa 1980 there were a lot of people who really wanted 2:1. I think it was the favorite of most cinematographers.

Well on the one hand you have 1.37:1, to make you feel claustrophobic and feel like you're watching an old movie. And then on the other hand there's 2.76:1, to make you feel...claustrophobic? And like the movie is old?

A couple of things.... Firstly, you don't mention Cinerama, where they shot with three cameras simultaneously projected onto a curved screen to get one ultra-wide image. Secondly, _Ben Hur_ (1959) wasn't the debut of Ultra Panavision 70, _Raintree County_ (1957) with Elizabeth Taylor was. Thirdly, the rounded corners make it look like a frame of an old film print. Polaroids don't have rounded corners. Fourthly, in _The Grand Budapest Hotel_ the 30s are in 4x3, the 60s are in 2.35:1, and the 80s, and present day are 1.85:1

@steveturner6862 5 ай бұрын

Raintree County was filmed in extreme widescreen but release prints were masked in the Cinemascope 2.35:1 aspect ratio in order to match screen projection sizes in most theaters, which had spent tons of money in the mid-1950s putting in the "scope" width screens.

"But where did the 16:9 ratio come from?" "Johnny, it's time I tell you about the Golden Ratio. It is a ratio that was passed down from the Zeppeli family."

@KingdaToro 4 жыл бұрын

That's not the reason. 16:10 is much closer, and that was in fact the most common size for widescreen computer monitors before they all went to 16:9. And it's honestly better, as you get more height, more pixels, to work with. Instead of 1920x1080, you have 1920x1200. Instead of 2560x1440, you have 2560x1600. Instead of 3840x2160, you get 3840x2400.

@@KingdaToro Thank you for informing me that the aspect ratio that gained traction in the early 2000s did *not* in fact originate from the fictional series Steel Ball Run in which Gyro Zeppeli explains the mathematical quirks of the 16:9 ratio in a manga chapter published in 2006.

@DGaryGrady 3 жыл бұрын

It's actually just 4:3 squared, which makes it very close to the geometric mean of 4:3 and 2.39:1. Also, the Golden Ratio is roughly 1.62:1 and 16:9 is 1.78:1.
