track that


- as I gain continued inspiration from cinematography, some techniques stand out as extraordinary. CGI and other special effects are one thing, but when combined with intricate analog camera movement, prolonged time sequences and credible acting, the tracking shot sequence can take on epic proportions. check out this article at trueslant, which outlines some of the better tracking shots in films through the ages, as well as this story at fxguide, going behind the scenes on the set of Children of Men, where the above one-take shot is from.
bloody, but bloody awesome.
