In this Cine Gear 2025 wrap-up episode of CineD Focus Check, Johnnie is joined by acclaimed cinematographer Markus Förderer, ASC (Red Notice, I Origins, Stowaway) for a rich and thoughtful conversation. Set against the cinematic backdrop of the Universal Studios lot, the two dive deep into the current state of lens technology, digital cinematography, and the importance of preserving the emotional core of storytelling amidst rapid technological change, and the state of the filmmaking industry in general. This Cine Gear 2025 wrap-up episode is sponsored by FUJIFILM. Check out this week's educational One-Minute Tip from them at (08:40)! Markus joined us once before over a year ago in a prior episode of the Focus Check podcast, talking about his project CineFlares after it launched, and his work on Constellation. Check it out here if you missed that episode. From discussing metadata integration in modern lenses and the rise of affordable anamorphic glass, to reflecting on the potential and limitations of AI-generated visuals, this episode offers a grounded and inspiring perspective from one of Hollywood's most thoughtful DPs. Markus also shares insights on his lens test platform CineFlares, custom LUT workflows, and how he chooses optics based on narrative needs, not specs.

In recent years, the rise of vertical video shooting has grown significantly. We recently conducted a poll asking our community how they handle this during their productions. Do people tend to crop into horizontal videos, or are they flipping the cameras to shoot dedicated vertical shots? What needs to be considered when shooting vertical? We dive into this topic and, of course, bring you the usual gear updates in this week's episode. Tune in and get all the insights from this week's discussion!

Individually, they present fleeting tableaux of precise personal incidents. Taken together, they provide a wider understanding of how universal youth resiliency really is. If from the mouth of babes comes the truth, then this metaphoric photo album speaks to the will and tenacity of human beings.

Clarke, and the Making of a MasterpieceThis is the definitive story of the making of 2001: A Space Odyssey, acclaimed today as one of the greatest films ever made, including the inside account of how director Stanley Kubrick and writer Arthur C. Clarke created this cinematic masterpiece. Author Michael Benson explains how 2001 was made, telling the story primarily through the two people most responsible for the film, Kubrick and science fiction legend Arthur C. Clarke. Benson interviewed Clarke many times, and has also spoken at length with Kubrick's widow, Christiane; with visual effects supervisor Doug Trumbull; with Dan Richter, who played 2001's leading man-ape; and many others.A colorful nonfiction narrative packed with memorable characters and remarkable incidents, Space Odyssey provides a 360-degree view of this extraordinary work, tracking the film from Kubrick and Clarke's first meeting in New York in 1964 through its UK production from 1965-1968, during which some of the most complex sets ever made were merged with visual effects so innovative that they scarcely seem dated today. A concluding chapter examines the film's legacy as it grew into it current justifiably exalted status.

Then, we delve into the roles on a film set and the dynamic art of filmmaking.

Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and Goodfellas are regularly cited as being among the finest films ever made. This lavish retrospective is a fitting tribute to a remarkable director, now into his seventh decade in cinema and showing no signs of slowing up. Leading film writer Tom Shone draws on his in-depth knowledge and distinctive viewpoint to present refreshing commentaries on all twenty-six main features, from the rarely shown Who's That Knocking at My Door (1967) to the latest release, The Irishman (2019), as well as covering Scorsese's notable parallel career as a documentarian. Impeccably designed and copiously illustrated with more than two hundred stills and behind-the-scenes images, this is the definitive celebration of one of cinema's most enduring talents.

Another year, another Cinegear! Though I honestly haven't seen anything worthwhile since Cinegear 2018/2019, this year the turn out was definitely more than last year but the majority of booths are Cinegear already had their time to shine at NAB so nothing "new". The one thing that stood out was the amount of budget friendly equipment from stabilizers, support rigs, lenses etc which is opening up avenues to still create great images at any budget level.  If you enjoyed this episode please rate it and let me know how i'm doing!
