The Experimental Cinematography Of POOR THINGS - Petzval Lenses, Mixed Formats, And More‪!‬ Show Don't Tell: Micro-Budget Filmmaking

    • TV & Film

In this episode, I share a breakdown of some amazing and unconventional lens choices on the feature film Poor Things.


While many lenses were used throughout production, there were 4 in particular that I believe contributed most critically to the distinct look of this film - Including a pair of Lomography Petzval lenses, and a 4mm lens adapted from Super 16. 

Throughout the episode, I cover each lens in depth, explore how they were used, and share other key takeaways from the film.
