Stop trying to convince me that portrait mode is the new format for entertainment.

I hate it too but there’s a reason books have a portrait resolution, it’s easier to scan when you’re holding it in front of your face

Okay, let’s do an autopsy of your reply:

  1. Books don’t have a resolution. They’re paper.

  2. “Portrait” is an orientation, not a resolution.

  3. Movies aren’t books.

My guy, books were portrait-oriented because you can get more words on paper that way. They were literally made before phones were even a thing.

Actually super well done and an interesting concept.

These are all static shots from the film that suit the format and method well, so definitely could not do the whole film like this.

I think it looks neat, it’s not viable for a whole movie, but it’s cool!

I’ll enjoy this the moment our eyes are built vertically.

I love when AI is used to give us different perspectives, belying the impact to artist’s original intent. More of a curiosity in this case, a “what if?” Of sorts

This is cool as a proof of concept but I tend to agree with the ‘dissenters’ that the composition is much stronger in many of the unaltered scenes.
