Director Of Photography Wally Pfister Talks The Dark Knight Rises!
Director of photography Wally Pfister talked to the wrap where he denied the recent rumor that the next Batman film The Dark Knight Rises will be shot entirely in IMAX as well as talking about 3D...
On Whether The Dark Knight Rises Would Be Shot Entirely in IMAX: Pfister said he and Nolan hope to shoot much of the new Batman film, "The Dark Knight Rises," for IMAX -- as they did for sporadic parts in "The Dark Knight." But they won't shoot the entire film for IMAX, he said, citing cost and the inability to capture sound as just two of the impediments. On 3D: "I'm not a big fan of 3D, I think one of the biggest problems for Chris, and I would second this, in doing a film in 3D is it has to be shot in a video process, and we're film people to the end. You'll have to pry that film camera out of my dead hands, Chris wasn't interested in doing post-effect on the film in 3D." "The so-called digital revolution is great. If you have no money and you want to shoot it on your Canon 5D -- fantastic. If that's the only way you can make the movie, great. But if we're putting movies up on a screen this size … we need to deliver the best image quality there. And there's nothing better than film." On Filming in New Orleans: He brushed off online speculation that the film would shoot in New Orleans.
