Co-writer/director Gareth Edwards details the revolutionary new technology he used to film his sci-fi movie The Creator with John David Washington.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Gareth Edwards unveils the revolutionary technology used to film The Creator. Edwards is in the director seat for the upcoming science-fiction movie, which depicts a post-apocalyptic future where a war breaks out between humans and A.I. and centers on an ex-special forces operative tasked to kill the A.I.'s elusive architect that could put a stop to the war.
While appearing on Collider's Directors on Directing panel, of which Screen Rant was in attendance, Gareth Edwards shared some insight on the revolutionary new technology he used to film The Creator. The co-writer/director revealed they used a new camera known as the FX3, which anyone can buy at Best Buy, but that offers the movie a film-like appearance in IMAX resolution.
How The Creator's Technology Could "Change Cinema" The news of Edwards having shot on this FX3 camera should excite creatives in the industry. With cinema-quality footage, there is typically this idea that one pays for what they get. That is, if IMAX-quality footage is desired, one has to buy a top-of-the-market IMAX camera to film at that capacity.
From the sound of it, The Creator may have just thrown a wrench in that with Edwards claiming to have achieved the high-resolution effect with immensely cheaper technology. According to the information about the FX3, not only the camera is cheaper, but the whole production process is cheaper because the FX3 does not need complex lighting or sound equipment to support its successful operation.
However, this potential opportunity may hinge on the success of Edwards' first movie since Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. While The Creator’s technology sounds fascinating and cutting-edge in theory, its look in the full movie will have to match the hype in order for the FX3 to be viable for other large-scale productions.
