Research and analysis : Playful cinema

 Today, I discovered who was Brad Bird, an amazing film director who is known for animation movies such as The Iron giant, The incredible or Ratatouille.

His specificity is to avoid cuts between different camera angles, he doesn't switch between many camera but uses simple slides from a subject to an other. This keep the logic of the scene and create small story in each shot. The great majority of his work uses a 3 slides set up which makes hi kind of cinema to be playful.

 HERE is the link to the explanatory video about how to set up a playful cinema as Brad Bird.
