RONIN (1998) A sneaky 'hidden cut' occurs when an extra walks past the camera to wipe the frame. The first shot is one location and the second shot is in a completely different part of the French town. A cool way to seamlessly connect different real-world locations.

Testing out the Generative Fill feature of Photoshop (beta). Took an iconic film image and did a little set extension to see what AI thinks lives beyond the frame's edges. Impressive results in one minute. Very realistic shadows, textures and lighting. #Firefly #possibilities

DUNKIRK (1958) - A well-crafted example of a 'deep focus shot' that looks like a 'split diopter shot'. The focus was set between the foreground and the first man in the chair. By using bright lights and a high f-stop, almost everything is in focus.
