It’s just a pretty basic concept in terms of composition. If you can picture what the spiral looks like, it isn’t hard to make a nice looking shot.
Connor Williams
Literally nothing in that shot aligns except few overlaps so no.
Matthew Torres
Maybe sometimes if they have autism
Andrew Morgan
This, it's post-hoc wankery
Ryder Nelson
Yeah they take a transparent pic of the spiral and put it on the camera to see
Jeremiah Jenkins
Aye, it's just rule of thirds, aka framing 101. Anyone who's ever held a camera to film stuff or even just take photos of fucking flowers should know it and no need to over-complicate it.
Charles Powell
Maynard made a song going by the The Fibonacci sequence.
kino
Leo Gonzalez
1/3 shoots are always into fibonacci no matter what
Zachary Flores
for me, it's centered and symmetrical shots
Aaron Harris
Filling a frame neatly with a guiding eye is a practised, innate skill that is case by case; you can't boil it down to following stupid meme layover 'rules'.
Isaiah Reyes
Luke Reyes
directors using it are fucking hack
Jack Clark
All of them use it actually since the human eye is naturally drawn to the fibonacci shape
Chase Bailey
Came here to post this. It's just rule of thirds reskinned onto something that will always line up with it. So yeah, in a way, they do follow that, but only incidentally.
James King
So you're a Wes Anderson man eh?
Cooper Torres
Ahahaha, of all the directors in the world, Wes Anderson is the most geometrically conscious.
Aaron Cox
Look at this nigger forgetting Tati youtube.com
John Rivera
Oh is that what we're talking about? Thought we were discussing rule of thirds and this follow-on meme of fibonaccis? You are correct however.
Cameron Morales
I am becoming obsessed with aspect ratios and framing. Help me.
Easton Ortiz
no they don't
Charles Ward
Literally anything can fit the golden ratio depending on where you stop it.
The golden spiral can be a square, it can be a tall rectangle, it can be a wide rectangle. Completely meaningless.
Nathaniel King
Bullshit
Bentley Adams
it's just good old fashioned 1/3rd split of frame. putting golden spiral into various images is just silly meme
Jason Gonzalez
Can this fucking meme die? The point of fibonacci is that the spiral is endless. Lateralus only takes like the first eight numbers or so and goes back. Really no big deal.
Tyler Reed
Got something to add?
David Sanders
art, lol
Dylan Myers
Andrew Stewart
>practised, innate
how is it both of these? retard
Luis Carter
It's bullshit. As long as you are framing a scene properly. You will get aesthetically pleasing results.
Landon Murphy
I love tool but you should know that the idea for the timing on the lyrics came form them just shooting the hsit with a friend when he mentioned it so Maynard just oh thats cool I think Ill do the lyrics around it. It aint that deep, pham.
Logan Campbell
Whoa
Michael Robinson
It's mostly just post-hoc. The reality is that our eyes/brains inherently gravitate towards the rule of thirds, but you rarely go out of your way to make shots fit the criteria. It just comes naturally with what looks good, and a lot of shots look good without fallowing the rule of thirds anyway.
Aaron Bennett
why YTS crop out the image?
Ryan Morgan
they didn't, that's how the BR is cropped
Alexander King
why james cameron did that?
Justin Martin
Bruv, that's one of my favorite movies you got there. How dare you compare its subtle and supple form to the terse rigidity of Anderson? Are you really unable to distinguish between the shape of the objects in front of the camera and the shape of the film itself?
Nathan Sanders
Yeah, exactly. If you throw the rule of thirds on Anderson, it will work better than almost any director, because he is intentionally works to create highly geometric mises en scene. The point being, because the frame is a rectangle, it is literally impossible for a well-composed shot to appear to a pleb as though it breaks rule of thirds or the golden ratio.
Justin Hernandez
faggot
Xavier Gomez
Noice
Benjamin Hernandez
>do photographers use the rule of thirds
gee I wonder
Xavier Cook
It's funny. No one ever talked about this until that movie "Pi" came out. Then everyone who wanted to sound smart talked about it. There are other ways to compose a shot
Kevin Edwards
fibonacci was used and talked about for centuries not just in photography but in paintings too
you have to be an absolute mental midget if you think a film from 1998 was the first to use and popularize it

It's not cropped, it's the theater aspect ration. the bigger picture is for IMAX but the ratio is more square.
Isaiah Foster
really makes you think
Luke Martin
Unless you're wes anderson.
Aaron Martin
this is good
Ethan Myers
open matte vs cropped, theaters are usually wider than 16:9 whereas real IMAX are more squarelike
