film and digital. Each director's perspective



Nolan doesn't choose good old film out of nostalgia, but rather sticks to film shooting from a technical standpoint. In that sense, you could say that his approach to technology is the same as director James Cameron, who pursues the latest digital technology in films such as Avatar , even though the methods are different.


Director David Fincher (`` Seven '', `` The Social Network ''), who, like Nolan, is a very strong writer, looks at his style and tone at first glance and seems to be particular about shooting on film, but in fact it's quite the opposite. He is always shooting with the latest digital camera. His reason is also very simple. Apparently, this is because "the tone can be checked on-site."

As you know, you cannot see what you have captured on film unless it is developed. When shooting a movie, there is a ``rush'' in which previews are held the day after filming to check the content, but Fincher can't stand it. There seems to be a big difference when you don't get the image you want, thinking things like, "Why is it so bright!?" It's more stressful to shoot with a digital camera, where you can check the tone to some extent on-site. It looks like it's definitely better without it. I see, I agree with his opinion, but each director seems to have their own reasons for the points they are particular about.
