If you haven't seen Birdman yet, do yourself a favor and go see it as soon as you get the chance. It's hands down one of the best films of the year, and I really want to see Michael Keaton take home an Oscar for his role in the film. He gives one of his best performances ever. One of the things that made this movie so unique, is that it looks like the movie was shot in a single take. Of course it wasn't really shot that way, and movie magic played a part in how that seamless effect was accomplished. Thanks to Variety Artisans, we have a video that explains how they accomplished this feat. The video came with the following note:
On Birdman, Birdman, director Alejandro Gonzales Innaritu and cinematographer Emmanuel Chivo Lubezki achieved something very unusual: A film that looks like one continuous shot. But of course, it’s not really a single shot. Digital colorist Steve Scott shows Variety's Tim Gray how they did it.
