Digital Filmmaking

Films and digital both have their plus and minus points. Digital’s greatest plus point is its cost effectiveness. Filmmaking was eponymous with large canisters. These are a matter of a gone-by time. No cans with stickers are being taken from one location to another. It is a card. It is a code. It allows cinematographers to shoot in a higher definition, letting viewers take in more of the amazing work in set design. There is a shift to digital editing too. Formerly films were edited with a scissor in hand, snipping and slicing film together. Some elements of digital like 3 D are great if the film warrants it. Virtual reality has got traction in the West. If digital helps the storytelling, it must be harnessed. India is a land of emotional content and so computer graphics is widely used. Even film distribution has been impacted by digital.
