Remember when movies used to look good?
Rich shadows, bold colors, and depth. But now? A lot of films and shows look flat, dull, and lifeless. In this video, I break down why modern cinematography feels so uninspired, and it’s NOT digital’s fault. Let’s talk about dynamic range, lighting, and why intentional choices matter more than ever.
What you’ll learn:
• Why older movies look better than modern ones
• How dynamic range & contrast affect the cinematic look
• The role of VFX, lighting, and production design in the decline of movie aesthetics
