This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

The show is worth watching, just as a show, even if you disagree with the message. It's unique in its presentation. The single cut style looks like it might hide some subtle cuts (I don't think so), but it's actually quite impressive. The topic is interesting and can spawn interesting conversations.
Every long oner has hidden cuts. These range from really simple, like something moving across the foreground to hide a wipe, to really difficult (expensive) like fully CG doubles to merge shots (probably too expensive for this TV show).
I would suspect that at least 80% of the time, when something (or more often someone) moves accross the whole frame in front of everything else, its obscuring a wipe to the next shot.
There is at least one (art house) thriller done in one cut, Victoria, rather impressive for a future length movies that includes several locations and driving in a car.
He could be lying, but the cinematographer for it says each episode was a single shot
“There’s no stitching of takes together," cinematographer Matthew Lewis told Variety. "It was one entire shot, whether I wanted it to be or not."
I dont see why he'd say that if it wasnt as he'd look pretty stupid if some else came out and contradicted him.
Seems rather poetic then factual statement - what does " whether I wanted it to be or not." in this context even mean?
I think it's refering to that they were only using a single camera and that the episodes were performed all the way though (up to 16 times per that article) on location without stopping. With those constraints there isnt really a way to make cuts.
I read it up and every episode is indeed one take. Nice, I think there is basically only a few one take featured films.
It is a well done series. Can't talk about content because of spoilers. But the single take from start of the episode to end is an amazing accomplishment-with all the camera movements.
