The Old Movies and Their Secrets 👉 Spielberg Also Used Them 👀
I explore how the look of old Hollywood films, techniques and details like the Kodak 5247 influenced my passion for photography. Since I was little, I was always fascinated by the look and feel, that unique aesthetic of old Hollywood movies. In my early days, I used to think that it was solely due to old televisions or the lack of advanced technology in their filming. However, today, with a deeper understanding of photography, I can't help but be grateful for having had that interest since I was young. Those films not only marked my childhood, but also shaped a large part of what I do and am today. Here I tell you the magic behind what we all see, but few really notice. For example, the legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg, who repeatedly used the same filming techniques to create his unmistakable style: aperture, objectives, lenses, depth of field, etc. Additionally, he had one film in particular that was his favorite: the Eastman Kodak5247, a key choice that allowed him to achieve that unique look in his productions. 😱 The small details make all the difference! 😱
