But coming up with the right\u00a0story proved tricky. Adding to the three-qual&#8217;s development woes \u2014 a revolving door of writers and directors who experienced\u00a0immense frustration with a studio that was too meddlesome\u00a0with its prize jewel of a franchise. After a long search for an inexperienced-yet-talented director that they could control and micro-manage, Fox settled on Fincher \u2014 a rising star with a professed love for the Alien franchise and its founding director, Ridley Scott.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Cameron has been embarking on a second Director Series focusing on director <a title=\"P.T.

The film was presented in the 2:35-1 anamorphic aspect ration but it appears this was achieved via a matte in post-production layered onto full 1:85-1 Academy frame. This plays into Fincher&#8217;s reputation as a visual perfectionist, who uses digital technology to exert\u00a0control over the image down to the smallest detail.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3 id=\"from-the-game-to-panic-room-via-fight-club\">From The Game to Panic Room via Fight Club<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/128163934?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>With a triplet of some of my personal favorite Fincher movies &#8211; I know <a title=\"Panic Room\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0258000\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>Panic Room<\/em><\/a> isn&#8217;t amazing, but I love it for what it knows itself to be &#8211; this part of the series covers his next three feature films starting with <a title=\"The Game\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0119174\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>The Game<\/em><\/a> (1997), then <a title=\"Fight Club\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0137523\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>Fight Club<\/em><\/a> (1999) and finally <em>Panic Room<\/em> (2002).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Fincher&#8217;s music video work often explored the boundaries of the film frame, transgressing arbitrary lines to see what was being hidden from view. Most of the time this meant the artifice of the production process was made known\u00a0to the viewer. The Game is an appropriate\u00a0avenue to explore this\u00a0idea\u00a0in feature film form because\u00a0the story concerns itself with what happens when Nick is essentially placed inside of his own movie.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3 id=\"fincher-goes-digital\">Fincher Goes Digital<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/133463115?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Zodiac<\/em> (2007) and <a title=\"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0421715\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>The Curious Case of Benjamin Button<\/em><\/a> (2008) are the first &#8216;all-digital&#8217; filmmaking experiences for Fincher and potentially <strong>some of his most personal work<\/strong>. It&#8217;s interesting to note how much of Fincher&#8217;s technical abilities and grasp of the potential for digital filmmaking came off the back of his experimentation in his commercial work.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Curious Case of Benjamin Button furthers Fincher&#8217;s foray into the digital realm. Working with the new visual collaborator and cinematographer Claudio Miranda, Fincher once again utilises the Viper Film Stream camera to establish an all digital workflow&#8230; For a lot of people, the Curious Case of Benjamin Button doesn&#8217;t feel like a Fincher film, mainly because of its optimistic and sentimental tone that stands at stark odds with the rest of his\u00a0emotionally cold and nihilistic filmography.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3 id=\"the-bleeding-edge\">The Bleeding Edge<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/139955174?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The final part of the series covers <strong>the harder edge of Fincher&#8217;s filmmaking catalogue,<\/strong> stretching from <a title=\"Social Network\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1285016\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>The Social Network<\/em><\/a> (2010)\u00a0to <a title=\"Gone Girl\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2267998\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>Gone Girl <\/em><\/a>(2014) and encompassing <a title=\"The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1568346\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(2011) and <a title=\"House of Cards\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1856010\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><em>House of Cards<\/em><\/a>\u00a0(2013) and more of his recent commercial and music video work. One of the (many) impressive things about Fincher&#8217;s directorial work is the output, with almost every year producing a remarkable piece of work. The biggest &#8216;gap&#8217; in his feature film career are the five years between <em>Panic Room<\/em> in 2002 and <em>Zodiac<\/em> in 2007.<\/p>\n<p>You can also check out my lengthy round up of post-production-related articles on <a title=\"making of gone girl\" href=\"http:\/\/jonnyelwyn.co.uk\/film-and-video-editing\/the-making-of-gone-girl\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">the making of <em>Gone Girl<\/em> here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Editors Kirk Baxter and Angus Wall are key collaborators within Fincher&#8217;s filmography. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo would become their second consecutive Oscar win under the director&#8217;s supervision. They readily utilised the advantages that\u00a0digital filmmaking has to offer, creating a tone that&#8217;s moody, but yet unlike conventional missing person thrillers. Angus and Wall establish a patient, plodding pace that draws the audience deeper into the mystery\u00a0before they&#8217;re even aware of it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>What are your favorite David Fincher moments on screen?<\/strong> Share your thoughts in the comments below!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enjoy this insightful five-part video series that covers the ups and downs of David Fincher&#8217;s acclaimed filmmaking career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":68898,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4519,3843,715,79],"tags":[1093,1455,1473,1511,211,3573,4611],"class_list":["post-class-post-68761","post-class-post","post-class-type-post","post-class-status-publish","post-class-format-standard","post-class-has-post-thumbnail","post-class-hentry","post-class-category-cinematography-2","post-class-category-filmmaking-2","post-class-category-industry","post-class-category-inspiration","post-class-tag-cinematography","post-class-tag-david-fincher","post-class-tag-directing","post-class-tag-directors","post-class-tag-editing","post-class-tag-fincher","post-class-tag-video-essay"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v21.5) -
