Replying to Filming feet
what do you think of strobeck style filming in skiing? specifically heavy zooms from just the head to the feet.
personally, i really like skate style filming, but what i don't fuck with is only being able to see someone's feet. skiing's a full body expression and i feel like you miss out on the trick and the feature when you only see boots, skis, and knees. it's not like skating in the sense that the footwork isn't the main emphasis of a trick. so why cut off the swag of the arms, hips, and head? why cut out being able to see the scale of the feature? though i do really like the face zooms before and after the trick though - seeing some personality in the moment is really sick as opposed to just supplementing it with broll.
