When I see the name A24, the first thing that comes to mind for me is being able to describe it as a "Psychological aesthetic" or "Psychedelic-wave," or perhaps even as "One collective" edit:I modified my comment in order to make them stop barking.

@closerrl9851 4 ай бұрын

The lighting isnt something special to movies. But like how character driven, or as you said it psychological, it feels, it is consistant. People like consistancy. One director cant make enough movies, and a lot of directors do not tend to be consistent as much as well. Also people got too lazy to remember 30 directors they like, because movies now are mostly seen as just entertainment. Hence a studio is now what we look at. It so happens that A24 is the most consistent in bringing character driven personal drama, with a touch of weirdness so people who like movies can actually say they have good taste. It's good marketing for sure. And thats how they started. Marketing.

No, people perceive A24 as some sort of a "auteur" force simply because of the marketing blitz they've put on, often times they simply acquire and distribute them once they are full made and finished. They premiere at a festival and A24 scoops in and buys it and slaps their logo on it. But even if they did produce them do you really think a studio like A24 would force true auteurs into putting in a "A24" signature stamp? No, they would just walk out. What the studio does is to give the filmmakers as much freedom as possible to make their true visions come true.

The point being made about A24 isn't just that they've had a bunch of hit movies but that there is very deliberate purpose in keeping to overarching stylistic choices. I'd relate that to music labels, how we'd associate Sub Pop or 4AD with specific kinds of artist. I can't say I've ever felt that way about Focus, Touchstone or New Line. It's not about having a run of good movies, but of something tying them all together that you come to expect with some certainty.

Agreed Neon releases some great films as well. Really there’s quite a few smaller outfits that specialize in good films. Meanwhile you have bigger stars complaining that there isn’t a market in Hollywood for a 3 million to 30 million dollar film from the big distributors. I would argue that there is a market, but they don’t want to pay a big name actor for that film. These days I stay away from almost products from the big companies as it’s almost always a waste of my money if I’m going to the theater. (I’ll just stream those movies from home) but I will make an effort for a “neon”, a24, blumhouse, or a few other companies as well. But it’s also not too hard to spot decent films, you’ll hear about them through the smaller festivals ect.

You're missing the point... A24 is ACTUALLY LETTING THEIR CREATORS CREATE!!! They don't get in the way of the filmmakers the way other studios do, and that's why the company is blowing up the way it is... So yes they do deserve A LOT of credit for the way they handle the movies they distribute and produce.

The first movie I saw from A24 was Hot Summer Nights. It's such a beautiful film. I watched it 2/3 times and would still do so. The music, the atmosphere of the movie is like an evening of summer where we have a break from everything and just stroll the streets or ride it towards something unplanned.

Moonlight was not produced by A24 - the movie was produced by Pastel (Adele Romanski) - later on Plan B (Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner) got onboard - some more money were put in and the movie went back into post-production for some final touches - some of the financing was handled by A24 but not produced by them.

@user-rm2wj9gj3l 4 ай бұрын

@@willy4819 Putting the money is called financier, not producer. Have you seen an A24 producer or rep to accept the academy award for "best film" for Moonlight? No, because the "best film" award is handed to the producer of the film. Big difference between a Producer and Executive Producer (a credit often given to financiers or representatives of the distribution company). There are Associate Producers, Line Producers, Co-Producers or Executive Producers, to name a few and none of them make you the producer of the film.

@@JerryVanSouth IMDB says many things. As an example: IMDB lists that the budget for Moonlight was 4 mil which is not true. It was actually 1.4. The acquisition price was 4 million. That is not a production budget. And that was stated by Jenkins in multiple interviews and Q&A prior to the Academy Awards. And if you would work in film and understand what IMDB is and what is it used for, maybe you would not have such a hard time navigating the informations presented / listed there. IMDB is not and was never the most reliable place to gather info about a project for film professionals. It's a good stop but not accurate at all. Cheers

My thoughts exactly. Even the storytelling is very selfsame. Not a creative, open studio at all. The fact they have many genres of films (terror, suspense, comedy, action) does not imply variety of filmmaking and artistic project at all. True differences run deeper than genre distinction.

I think it's important to note that a lot of old production houses (and streaming platforms) had and currently have camera requirements to upkeep a high level of production. I think A24 just bought it back, and honestly they distribute and produce a lot of scripts everyone else would ignore, so I'm glad they're giving a lot of first timers a chance and making newbies get some awards.

An incredibly weird decision to say all A24 movies are made to look similar at 1:05, but then show three films, two of which are by the same director and cinematographer. They look similar because they’re quite literally the same creative team. It’s not the studio. I just put out a video a few days before this one specifically about the “A24 look” and how it’s not real. It doesn’t exist. A24 isn’t mandating aesthetics. It is the work of the filmmakers. Sure, they lean towards a certain style when they buy and distribute, but A24 isn’t the mastermind behind the look of the films and giving them all that credit is a disservice to the filmmakers who usually make these films without the help of A24 in the first place. I’ve grown very tired of this A24 look phenomenon. It’s not an A24 look. There are tons of films by A24 that do not look like “A24” films, and tons from other studios that do.

@procrastinator1727 3 ай бұрын

I'm confused... where in the video did he make the point that A24 deserves all the credit for the look/style of the movies it distributes? He literally explains how it all works, they obviously choose carefully which films fit their desired style... that's just a fact. And since they've started also producing films, they do also obviously mandate aesthetics of the films being produced by them as well. He covered literally everything about A24 accurately. Did you even properly watch the video before going off on your little tangent?

I think it's key that they're a studio that (so far) have let filmmakers create a coherent artistic vision. Nothing feels designed by committee. And audiences respond to that, if given a chance to. Something similar happened with the Andor TV series. Disney had little confidence in it because it didn't feature any characters shoehorned in from the original Star Wars films, so they let Tony Gilroy just run with his artistic vision. The result is something that could easily, oddly, have fit right into the A24 catalogue. Hope we see a lot more of this. (Back in the day the Miramax logo usually signified a great film was about to begin. And today New Line Cinema can be pretty creative and daring.

Toni Collete's dialogue in the movie Hereditary (2018) by the film studio A24 was one of the best acting I've ever seen in my life. I was just mind blown she didn't even get an Oscar nod for that scene. Since then, I've been a fan of A24 movies. Then they produced "Everything, Everywhere, All At Once" and swept the Oscars. Just amazing what they could do on such small budget just simply by giving talented people the opportunity to be creative.
