It's almost unbelievable how inspiring this movie has turned out to be. BTW, you seem very passionate about cinematography and it elevates this video so much. Great work! I would love to see more videos like this.

@theqazman 2 года назад

Thank you very much.

Bro this type of content that you bring it's incredible! I grew up so much with your channel, but this is on another level, thank you so much... can't wait for the look recreation!! I saw "The Batman" yesterday and as soon as I went out from the cinema I checked in IMBD, and I was 100 % sure that the work was very similar to Dune and it's excatly how I was expecting. I was so shocked about how accurate was my intuition and to be honest without you I'd never be able to do it!! Again great job!

@14:33 there is complimentary colors too, way less saturated but still in the green family and the light in the red family.

@thornnorton5953 Год назад

I’m always confused by this. This is technically a complimentary color in a red yellow blue color system (which can be argued with technically) vs a positive color system(rgb) and how color schemes fit in this.

Seeing this makes me wanna see the rec709 vs graded comparison, I guess they did a lot on set but I'm very curious about how much was done through colorgrading too :D (especially for the shots at 25:08)

Yes, I always get itchy about that too. 709-Grade is always so gratifying and eye opening.

@theqazman 2 года назад

That's so awesome. Yeah man, I loved doing it. There will be many more in the near future.

@LukeMackie 2 года назад

I definitely agree about it being bold, I would be in two minds through the whole color grading process thinking about it from other people's POV's.. It does have that LOG feel to it, a lot has been done to the image, but to the untrained eye it would seem that not a lot has been done. I'm all for crisp, clear images personally, but I love how ballsy they got with the grade.

@theqazman 2 года назад

Completely. Much harder to create exciting looks with low con and sat.

You may download some of the trailers from 'The Digital Theatre'. They provide lossless quality footages which could make a world of a difference to the scopes.

@madhavkrishnan9251 2 года назад

You probably got the mindhunter vibe coz it was also shot on a custom RED and Fincher prefers using more green and yellow in his films as they were losy primarily in the digital age

@swancoffeehouse5983 2 года назад

I loved the film. Ever since that second trailer, I knew the look was going to be very different from any of the other Batman films and this is more fitting in terms of mood and tonality. I don't think I've ever seen anything similar to The Batman, not in recent years at least 🤔

@ianpatricks 2 года назад

This was really cool! I have come to realize that every film has it's own color life force and you are not creating, you are only letting art come out, your holding the hand of a narrative. I sincerely love this video Qazi. The Batman was dark, and I won't lie, I went to watch it in the cinema with a cinematographer friend of mine and he was blaming some things on the fault of the cinema, till we noticed it was the way it was 😅😅😅. Good to know mad men still walk amongst us 😂😂 For me, The Batman wasn't colorfully beautiful, but it was powerful, every frame had a particular powerful emotion it transmitted to us. The Batman is what I call cinema. Thank you 🙏

@theqazman 2 года назад

So true man. That's the best part about filmmaking. It's forever evolving and open for interpretation .

@praveenpanicker265 2 года назад

Dear Qazi, I've been following you more than 3 years ,not just to learn resolve but to hear from you a lot .You are so different, you go out of syllabus but still keeping within the borders.. But to say, this video (sorry, Class) has gone all its limits, OMG! None can explain the hidden secrets, the film makers do while filming, because they want to be it with them. But here...great dear...hats off ..being a cinematographer from India, I could learn a lot from this single episode alone...I love you dear.

So how different was the colour grade for the trailers than the movie? Or was it different at all? You’re saying that if something dark like this showed up during a football game it wouldn’t make sense. Did they punch things up for ads?

@logiknotlogic6586 2 года назад

it must be a mix. because they used the same panaromic 3d panels that were used in the Mandalorian set for all the scenes with the batsignal. So, yeah must be cgi.

@Piercybach 2 года назад

What I loved about seeing this in the cinema is, they made you feel as if you were Bruce Wayne. He lived during the night, and he was sensitive to any sort of bright light. He walks in to talk to Alfred in the morning and the morning sun is too much for him. I found, in the cinema, that every time there was a really bright bit of the film, I would be very sensitive to it also. It was so clever.

@theqazman 2 года назад

Couldn't agree more. This was the most vulnerable batman portrayal yet. In other films we knew he was human and can get hurt but we didn't believe it would happen in this one you feel scared for him.

@felipe-yang 2 года назад

Great analysis. Just a note, it says he "considered going", he didn't actually go to all the local restaurants.

@theqazman 2 года назад

You're studying several shots in this that are of LED screens behind the actors. Batman looking over the city or Catwoman looking at him. Those city skies behind them are LED screens.

I think it is the first batman that is actually loyal to the comic book, so the blueprint was there, they are just the first to do it. There are also alot to Korean films that have grades like the batman, but cause not mainstream they Don't get seen. Like they say " nothing is original, everything has already been done , you just try to do it differently " people get to tied to rules , scopes etc. For film, I think more people need to start breaking the rules. I personally hated the joker grade ,

@seekeroftruth101 2 года назад

@familygonzcartwright 2 года назад

The shot you call a day shot can't be because the bikes have their lights on. Also, when you say The Dark Knight has a dated grade, maybe you say it because it's different from the new look, the look of grades today. But, that being truth doesn't mean that the new look will look dated eventually while The Dark Knight will look atemporal where you can't place in a period. Finally, on the car chase scene, Greig said that he use vintage spherical Soviet lenses so he could crash and break stuff without worrying about breaking the custom glass so it's not anamorphic.

I loved "The Batman". I thought it was the best Batman movie in regards to the cinematography and look. It made Gotham an immersive and engaging world unlike any previous Batman movie. And story wise I thought they did a great job of showing Batman's humanity and vulnerability as a non-superhero human being.
