This level of movie making and care that was utilized throughout warms my heart. The world needs escapism but with a dose of heart and truth. These legacy characters are shown to be human, real and totally loving. My 61 year old jaded heart loves Jon M. Chu, Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande and the rest of the production and workers. Looking forward to part 2 of Wicked and thank you Alice Brooks ❤❤💚💚💛💛💙💙💜💜
This is SO fascinating! I wish the cinematographer Alice Brooks were on the press tour with the actors in some of the group interviews, the way Jon is. In other interviews I've heard her discuss cinematographic choices that highlight the intimacy between Elphaba and Glinda, and of COURSE in interviews we should be focusing on the chemistry between the actresses, yes, but I wish we ALSO focused on the lighting and camera choices a bit more in group interviews. I'm now binge-watching Alice Brooks interviews in addition to Cynthia and Ariana interviews!
I agree they need to also bring cinematographers to the limelight more(which they are - hence this video) but she didn’t deserve it based on this movie. She totally disappointment me
Honestly, it annoys me so much when people criticize the lighting in this movie making the colors feel muted. That was a CHOICE and not a technical flaw! Critics who speak negatively about this I guess wanted a cartoon like the 1930s movie and disregarding that this movie feels like a living, breathing world that took lots of technical skill to create. These should be easy Oscar wins for lighting, cinematography, and directing.
"The film look lifeless flat and dull because I wanted it to." "The beloved original Wizard of Oz which still looks incredible after almost 100 years actually looks like a cartoon." ... "Give me Oscars - including for lighting - a category that doesn't even exist!" .. DELUSIONAL!

the lighting is spectacular because they had an enormous budget. They had 9000 lights. what films this year had similar results with less resources?
I didn't like the choice. Some of the scenes looked flat

The lighting often looked FLAT! And the incessant lens flare was OBNOXIOUS and UNNECESSARY!!!! It constantly took away from the insane set design!
this movie is so stunning... all of the aspects of it...
Gosh that Ozdust dance sequence did look so wonderful
The best scene in wicked
I want to know everything about the making of this movie. Its all fascinating and inspirational
This woman is a beautiful genius. Every minute looked so beautiful and fitting. Let the award season begin and just hand everything to her.
omg this is complicated. these peole are talented
She can be good at cinematography (like in the movie in the heights) but she flopped hard with this movie 😢.
The lighting in this movie sucked!
