RE: 'F1: The Movie' Review: A cinematic thrill

Hey Namiks, I saw the film with the same vibe as you. By the way, you didn’t drop the link to that video about the film’s photography — I’d love to check it out. Honestly, I had a great time with all that action. As for Sonny Hayes, there were a few things I liked about him… but mainly his freedom. He and the young pilot are so different, and together they really make you think about life and how to be happier and better. Now, every time I go out on my bike, I copy what Sonny used to do when he went running.

The guy doing the interview tends to make these 'promotional' sorts of videos where he sits down with the filmmakers and just talks to them about the process, it's definitely catered more to other filmmakers as it's about the gear used and how. Very interesting to see. I've managed to actually learn a lot from listening to and watching such things. Makes you realise sometimes how much photography and filmmaking can be problem solving without needing to spend thousands, or even millions, on gear and big crews. Sometimes it's as easy as rigging a small consumer sports camera to a helmet ;^)

Didn't think anyone would actually be interested, but here you go!
