Hey! You should come to a screening tonight. I’m projecting 3 episodes from the 1993 neo-noir anthology series, FALLEN ANGELS. There will be a discussion with the lovely @rodman.bsky.social, who wrote the teleplays for the 3 episodes. cinema.usc.edu/events/reser...

5 years ago I left everything I knew and moved to LA - I would say that changing your entire life at the cusp of a global pandemic resulted in some mild trauma 🤪

Apparently they used it for only 2 minutes or so, for the accent. When I wrote my tweet I had read that they might have used it for buildings and structures within the film world.

Yes - I realize now that AI wasn’t used but I’m still curious as to why they would chose VistaVision. I love defunct formats but not sure what the benefits are in the 21st century. Unless the filmmaker is like, fuck it I just love VistaVision. And to that I would say, hell yeah

I made a tweet asking why a filmmaker would shoot on a defunct film format and make film prints, just to use AI at some point in the process. This was one of the responses.
