reviving this real quick…
I went and saw the new Star Trek movie last night. I like it well enough and maybe it’s just me, but the cinematography was not my cup of tea… The cockeyed angles, chopped close ups, and camera distortion made me dizzy at times!
There was one scene where Spock and Sulu were the only ones in the frame… it was pretty close up, Spock was standing and Sulu was sitting, and they were pushed to the farthest edges of the frame… well, every time the focus shifted based on who was talking, you could notice the lens distortion. That weird curling of the edges that you see on many wide angle lenses (I’m not sure what it’s called). It was super distracting to me because I couldn’t unsee it!
Has that happened to anyone else?
