Today, we\u2019re watching a video essay on subjective cinematography.&lt;\/em&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<hr\/>\n<p>First thing\u2019s first, let\u2019s get the obvious out of the way: all cinematography is subjective. Calling something \u201csubjective\u201d just means that it is influenced by particular opinions and ideologies. And because <em>people\u00a0<\/em>operate cameras, and\u00a0<em>those\u00a0<\/em>people are usually working in the service of someone else\u2019s creative vision, to say that a camera can be truly, entirely objective is a bit of a stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, cameras, by their very construction, capture a specific perspective. And the question we should be asking is not \u201c<em>is<\/em> this cinematography subjective?\u201d but rather \u201c<em>whose<\/em> subjectivity is this cinematographer representing?\u201d When we, the audience, look through the camera lens, whose eyes are we looking through? What are the subjective aspects of the cinematography trying to tell us about this story?<\/p>\n<p>Some shots (most obviously point-of-view shots) literally capture a character\u2019s perspective. This can also manifest more abstractly, as in\u00a0<em>Frida<\/em>, where the camera resonates with the output and artistic fantasy-tinged worldview of its subject. These details can also be minute, like in <em>Argo<\/em> where differences in film perforation lent Tehran the grainy aura of a Western movie. Unpacking the depth of subjective cinematography is most rewarding when you\u2019re talking specifics. So in that spirit, here\u2019s cinematographer <strong>Rodrigo Prieto<\/strong>, on his process with infusing his work with subjectivities:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Watch_%E2%80%9CWhat_is_Subjective_Cinematography_DP_Rodrigo_Prieto_on_Working_with_Scorsese_Inarritu_Ang_Lee%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Watch \u201cWhat is Subjective Cinematography?
