      35 mm film stock is fantastically expensive to buy and process. $10 million for a cheap movie. Most of it ends up on the editing room floor. Digital = economic freedom from having to grovel to the big money.

    • @Ferocious_Imbecile
      @Ferocious_Imbecile 4 ปีที่แล้ว +122

      Also, Lynch said Inland Empire cost him something like $125,000.00 to shoot and edit and process to 35 mm finished cut. Thus anybody can afford to make a feature length movie if they have a dedicated small crew. Throw in a 4k quadrocopter and skilled pilot and you've even got magnificent moving shots any boom operator could envy.

      He's an interesting old guy people can learn from guys like that it's just sad were he not a respected artist people would probably just dismiss him as crazy or tell him smoke less drink less coffee be quiet etc. not let him live his life and share his perspectives. He would be interesting if he just stayed a carpenter or painter I think also but he likes film and music making too very creative and credits meditation for much of that also.

      "Arguments about digital video aside..." What argument? Lynch, who loved (still loves) film finds a practical, creative, and economical need to shoot in digital. He makes no argument. George Lucas notoriously makes arguments in favor of digital because he's invested, but I don't find that Lynch does.

    It is not about film vs digital. It is about shooting interlaced vs shooting progressive, in particular 24p. The DVX100 was released in October 2002. David Lynch shot Inland Empire in 2006. Why did he shoot interlaced with PD150 instead of shooting 24p with the DVX? Oh, right, because he fell in love with the PD150.

      I have no idea why it isn’t universally seen as a masterpiece. I watched it alone at 10 on VHS. It was an almost spiritual experience. It also further opened my sensibilities to design and music.
      As a fan of Jean Giraud, I would have loved to have seen Jodorowsky’s version. But can’t 2 masterpieces exist at the same time? A potential, yet unmade masterpiece and an actual masterpiece.
      I honestly think most people just jump on a films reputation without giving themselves to it. Or maybe it’s only for some people. Heck, I thought Clan of the Cave Bear was a great film experience.

      I think he's more trying to say that you cannot make a film with an specific audience in mind. Rather you just make something and then an audience finds it instead of trying to make something an audience is going to like. For instance something by marvel, dc universe or sequels to great movies that don't need it. That stuff is made for money and people pleasing.

    As someone who too uses the Sony PD150 model he used back then, it makes perfect sense why he fell in love with that workflow. The camera itself is very fun to use thanks to all the easily accessible function keys and buttons. And the 3CCD Image sensor of that camera (and that goes for most sony videocameras in general) is very light sensitive so you can shoot wonderful shots even with low light and mostly available light conditions. The fact that you instantly see what you get is also very rewarding and for a visual artist VERY encouraging and motivating to do more in a lot less time since you don't really depend on a huge crew. The only downside is the DV material of the PD150 doesn't look as good if upscaled to HD. Unlike material shot on the similar Panasonic DVX100 which looks much better if upscaled to HD & Full HD. Still thou, thanks to that carefree workflow we got one of his most unbound and interesting films that is "Inland Empire" because the digital workflow can indeed be very liberating. Especially since digital Video only uses either inexpensive videotapes or solid state storing mediums, you are not wasting precious filmstock but just use digital filespace that can be easily deleted and used again. Something you cannot do with filmstock. Shooting film really isn't for everyone and David clearly found his perfect workflow thanks to that camera. And i'm very happy for him. Personally i realized that i'd much more prefer to shoot on film rather than digital video.

    • @ConsumerDV
      @ConsumerDV 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The DVX has insufficient resolution for widescreen, but it has 24p. The workflow is the same. Choosing between the two, the DVX is the clear winner for movies, and it was available for FOUR YEARS prior to Lynch started shooting Inland Empire. Unbelievable.

    In my opinion, one of the greatest benefits of seeing a film shot on celluloid in a digital medium like a 4K disc or digital projector is that when the film is scanned from the original negative, all the grain one sees is what originated on the negative. When a film is projected on celluloid, additional grain is introduced, even if the print is a second generation away from the negative. So ironically, when a filmmaker like Tarantino champions that his films should be seen on celluloid, digital projection can in some ways represent more accurately what the negative captured. One advantage celluloid has had over digital projection for a long time is in contrast and resolution. But with 4K laser projectors I think that advantage will slowly disappear. Especially considering that 99.99% of all movies shot on celluloid today are finished using a Digital intermediate. Which means that even if celluloid prints are being made, they will be struck from that DI and be limited to the resolution of the DI, which most likely will be lower than the resolution of the film print. If you then add on the extra grain and softness that get introduced from the print I think that a film that was shot on celluloid and then receives a 4K DI will look better on a 4K laser projector than on a film print. But I do believe celluloid has the advantage when it comes to older movies that were finished photochemicly and shoot on large formats like 65mm and VistaVision. Because then the true resolution of film is being taken advantage of (as long as the print doesn't come from a digital restoration of that movie, even 2001 a space odysseys 8K restoration probably don't take full advantage of a 65mm print, but digital restorations has of course other benefits, like damage removal.) After the introduction of the Digital intermediate the full potential celluloid has been lost when it comes to resolution, but has also given the filmmaker more freedom with color grading and special effects. I look forward to the day when 8K,10K,12k DIs are the norm.

      One look at a Blu-Ray Lawrence of Arabia or Doctor No from original negative shows me the perfect marriage of film and digital. Tarantino shoots on film then transfers to digital, losing nothing.

    Two thoughts
    1a- digital works because it's accessible, and there's a lot of potential with post processing
    1b- film is probably better because it forces you to buckle down and pay attention to what you're doing.
    [ these thoughts are based on my experiences with photography. I have yet to develop film on my own]
    2- Tunde Adepimpe had this to say about dreams "Most people don’t want to hear about the weird dream you had. It may be interesting or bewildering to you, but really no one else cares." Don't believe me, try telling your coworkers about a vivid dream you thought meant something, and see how long it takes them to laugh at you.

    I do agree with your points, but you must consider the fact: would you rather watch a movie that spent 95% of it's budget on film? Or would you watch a movie that spent 95% of it's money on the actual film itself? Shooting an entire film on 16mm is would amount to $4000 plus transfer to digital tapes, and that's at a 2:1 ratio.

      @@vitors9198 intention is not art or even close to the definition. Art requires skill and is in the form of things like movies, shows, paintings, and sculptures. Basically anything that is visual and requires skill and effort is art. It's not just visuals, also sound.
