- Academy Award®-winning Director of Photography Greig Fraser, ACS, ASC, returns to the podcast to discuss his work on “Dune: Part Two.” The film is a stunning achievement, from both the technical and artistic standpoints, which benefitted greatly from being a continuation of his work from part one:
“Whenever you do a movie, you've got to solve a series of problems... And a lot of the technical stuff had been solved for us in advance, because we'd done part one. So this allowed us the opportunity to dream a little bit. And I wouldn't say, ‘dream bigger.’ But it allowed us to dream with more opportunity… We felt empowered that we were doing the right thing. At least, people were appreciating the job that we had done. And instead of having that paralyze us... We were able to make bold decisions and bold choices. Like the infrared photography on Giedi Prime and the eclipse scene. So we were able to do that a little bit more boldly.“

Greig Fraser has already solidified himself as one of the greatest cinematographers of the modern age. What he's accomplished with Dune: Part 2 is just beyond incredible. Once in a lifetime talent.
yep! His c.v is ridiculously good!!
Greig Fraser and Roger Deakins are my favorites
Once in many lifetimes..
Hoyte, Fraser, Deakins, Lubezki. In no particular order 🙂
I love that he is interestingly lit in his little room 😂
love that meticulousness to him! i bet his selfies take hooooours
One of the only DPs who can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Roger Deakins. He's ridiculously precise.
big time! Kinda ridiculous he did not win with Batman too. The man is a Master!
Hoytema and Lubezki should also be included in this group.
@@BankMoviegoer big time!!
He talks about how when filming the 'riding the sandworm' scene, they made a rule that the camera had to present a real camera perspective. That rule has such a massive impact on the realness of these films. When cameras are flying around in ways that can only be done with CGI, it immediately throws me into "playing a video game" mode and takes me out of the immersion of the movie.
Yes! I saw the film yesterday afternoon and couldn't put into words what this feeling was, so thank you.
Such a great point, thanks for sharing. Makes me realize that's one of the year reasons why that sequence was so spectacular
Love this! Def get that fly on the wall feel.
That shot when you experience riding the worm in first-person perspective, wow!! And the audio was immaculate!
Absolutely. The troll cave chase in the first hobbit movie being the prime example of what not to do.
I loved the lighting during that opening when the eclipse was happening. Definitely had an eclipse feel to it.
It turns out it was a real eclipse and they took advantage of the opportunity to shoot it and add it into the movie
When he walks back and forth across the top of the dune as the worm approaches…..that is the most amazing shot.
I watched the movie in legit IMAX. And Paul riding the sandworm was just an absolutely incredible sequence especially with the shift to first person view. It is truly a new iconic scene in cinema history. The whole experience is still lingering in my mind even days after. It is truly an incredibly well made movie.
This is the next Oscar winner for best cinematography. 0 doubt about it even if it's only march
I saw it yesterday in Dolby theatre. I experienced something I cannot forget forever: Riding the sand worm for the first time with the messiah.
he absolutely fucking nailed it with the worm scene. just takes your breath away.
I actually enjoyed it , my seat was shaking because of the waves , The audio experience was just jaw dropping. I never experienced like this in big films too. It is a visual masterpiece too ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Watch dune , it is once in life experience
A big thanks for NOT UNDEREXPOSING! I hate not being able to see an exiting scene because it’s been deliberately obscured.
Dude will get an Oscar for dune 2
Let's agree to give him his second academy award pre-emptively. Such bold and creative choices. He's at the top of the game.
And let's give Denis and Timothée theirs too btw
I just saw it in Imax. It may be my new favourite movie. I will see it again before its out of theatres. Its truly amazing.
Wow, what a filmography. Congrats 👏👏
We have several options when it comes to watching the film Laser IMAX, IMAX, Laser at AMC, Dolby, etc... I would love to hear about what makes Dolby special and unique especially for theatrical. I have worked with it for TV. Thanks again!
14:53 the moment which Greg mentions Hans Zimmer's note elevating the scene. Replayed it multiple times. Really does transform the image tremendously.
This man is really in an entirely different plane of existence
I’ve never seen such grandiose scale portrayed as well as he was able to do in both parts of Dune
Love how the room he's in looks colored similarly to Dune lol
Dolby is the best way to watch this masterpiece!
Just found this podcast - fantastic! Thank you for the entire team for these interviews! :) Its really interesting to hear the personal stories behind these majestic works :)
Simply visionary!
In Brazil we have people that surf trains and buses, maybe that was a good reference for them 😅
Did the film-out process happen after final grading or before? It would be nice to see how highlights and shadows were affected by going out to film and scanning it back in.
Yeah film out to intermediates have extremely low granularity, what you get instead is a complex spatial fidelity between dye layers which is also density dependent. Due to the multi-layered scattering properties of the emulsion. Since digital capture employs one layer of photosites with bayer filters, the resolving power is consistent between channels, so doesn't render detail to the same complexity as film.
Dolby Gênio ❤
Loved this. Deserves more thumbs up given the 150k views!
🙌absolute cinema
This movie 🔥
Information for Greg & Dolby: You don't need to film-out only on 1 ASA stock. You can use the same Vision stocks you'd shoot on normally. The lab just needs to configure their ArriLaser.
Will Hans Zimmer be releasing the longer versions of the songs for dune part 2, like the sketchbook album for Part 1?
Roger Deakins, Greg Frasier, and Hoyte van Hoytema are the best of the best DPs right now
The Greig Fraser look… “Rogue One” is still by far my favoirite Star Wars, not least because it’s got Greig Fraser look.
DOn't see a link to Part 1, Can't find it googling.
Great interview, thank you. I wonder what filter they used to filter out the visible RGB light for the IR scenes? Was it a strong ND? or 2 Polas together? Very cool technique. I would have guessed they used used a special camera
“Dual footage was captured with a 3D rig, one in color, one in IR.” - first caption, pp 108-109 of the Kindle Edition of “The Art and Soul of Dune Part Two - written by Tanya Lapointe with Stephanie Broos”
@@davidolden971 oh very interesting technique. I would have never guessed that. Thanks a lot for the info and I will check out that book!
Sounds like they just dropped the RGB in post and used the remaining light spectrum
19:04 interesting how he uses the character names when naming the crew instead of the actors’ real names 😁
imax 70mm is much sharper than digital IMO
I wonder if he purposefully made his video look kinda like dune
Yamaha NS-C444
If when shooting in IR camera sees what human can't then how Giedi Prime scenes are visible for us?
IR is probably captured and “translated” (mapped) to visible light in the process?
@@johannystrom-persson2966 if it's true then they could just use colorgrading IMO
14:53
Dune Part II deserves to clean house with just about every relevant Oscar award next year. They were massively cheated on Part One & a repeat of that would be horrible.
Im gonna, watch this in dolby and imax in my 2nd and 3rd watch saw it in screen x already don't love that gimmick
Is it me or is the audio and video really out of synch? Slightly ironic on a video about film making lol
Greg strikes me as a guy with the problem solving mentality of an engineer.
It should be forbidden to make interviews with Air Pods.
😜
How dare you open this with cheap corporate music...
Same😂 I was about to click out expecting some corporate training video about how to use Dolby products.
Not the music you put on actually good interviews like this one😂
@@joetheperformer Haha yeah same! Its just not the right tone for a Dolby video!
uninspired and sterile
