Poor Things - PETzvAl Lens test
This shot was deeply inspired by Poor Things. The whole film is gorgeous and has such interesting and inspiring cinematography, but there were these shots that I just couldn't stop staring at. The bokeh seemed to be almost swirling around the edge of the frame. With research I learned this effect was created with the Petzval lens, a 19th century portrait lens that has been retrofitted for film! I just had to try replicate it in 3D!
