Great look to this video for Hot Flash Heat Wave by Portland-based director Noah Porter (previously featured here). “Grudge” is about the allure of withdrawing from reality in favour of a simulated world. While the West Coast fires earlier this year caused delays that almost prevented the team from being able to use film, the video was ultimately shot on 16mm by cinematographer Scott Uyeda. Both Uyeda and Porter felt strongly that the 4:3 aspect ratio was crucial to the early 2000s, turn-of-the-millennium era they were trying to capture.
