In a newly released video from Kodak, acclaimed filmmaker Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed) discusses the visual language behind his upcoming horror film, Sinners. The movie not only continues Hollywood’s recent return to celluloid, seen recently in The Brutalist, but also pushes the boundaries of what’s possible with analog formats and aspect ratios.
Shot entirely on film cinema cameras, Sinners makes bold use of two distinct large-format film systems: Ultra Panavision 70 and IMAX 15-perf. While both formats use 65 / 70mm film stock, they differ significantly in how the film runs through the camera, the number of perforations per frame and their aspect ratios.
