Jake on the set of "Love & other drugs"

    Jake Gyllenhaal running on The Set of 'Love And Other Drugs' in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on 30th September 2009.

    Look at the cameras they are using on the set of "Love and other drugs": Panavision. In Hollywood, Panavision became the industry leader with the appearance of the new Panaflex camera in 1973.

    George Lucas with his Panavision set up."Jaws" was made one year before the introduction of the Steadicam and scenes on the water were shot by director of photography Bill Butler and his operator Michael Chapman with a hand-held Panaflex. They declined to use the Steadicam system for the shaky effect hand-helding creates.Steven Spielberg was fond of saying that "Jaws" was "the most expensive hand-held movie ever made". Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss bonded together in search of the Great White Shark filming in 35 mm Panavision anamorphic.

    Paul Newman in "Cool Hand Luke" (1967).

    "Cool Hand Luke is one of the great must-see Hollywood classics from the last Golden Age of filmmaking and one that deserves serious rediscovery.
    The 1080p 2.35 X 1 digital High Definition image was shot in real anamorphic 35mm Panavision by the great Conrad L. Hall, A.S.C., who shot several of Newman’s Westerns and other great films like Fat City, Electra Glide In Blue and Road To Perdition and was a master of the scope frame".

    MA: "Oh, man. My honest answer is I wouldn't have changed a thing. It turned out exactly how I wanted it to turn out. We talked about trying to cast somebody who was a famous actor, and we realized that would just take away from the story we were trying to tell and it would be "it's that video with Jake Gyllenhaal and that guy" it would just be about that instead of being about the story.

    WCT: So is that your roundabout way of saying "Jake Gyllenhaal?"
    MA: That said, I definitely wouldn't have minded a few rehearsals with Jake Gyllenhaal. I definitely would have gone to those rehearsals". Source: www.windycitymediagroup.comSource URL: https://americanendeavor.blogspot.com/2009/10/jake-on-set-of-other-drugs.html
