[@pglazzari1]

I get the look and feel. The spiral blur on the edges in certain scene were to heavy. I would of used more of a dark vignette with the blur. Keep up with the story telling

[@Johnpatru]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@mj3846]

Quit projecting what someone else should do with their art. If he followed your blueprint it would be your art and not his.

[@the_allens_]

I love the spiral bokeh effect, it elevates a lens that otherwise is one of the most boring ever made

[@iamthecommentman]

​@@mj3846 it's not projection it's more so a differing creative pallette. You can find something remarkable and want to change it up a way that only you can see... doesn't mean you hate the source content.

As a big The Batman fan, I LOVED this. Bravo, man

[@Johnpatru]

I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you!🙏🏻

[@sotas4609]

Lovely artwork! Gotham-like color scheme, deep-based cinematic music, narration, slow motion, and the characteristic lens flare of the Anamorphic lens. Everything is of such high quality, I can't believe it was all shot on an iPhone. What I am most interested in is how you recreated the characteristic spiral-shaped bokeh. The lens that produces this characteristic bokeh, such as the Helios 44, is well-known, but I am very interested in how it was recreated, since it was taken using only an iPhone. I look forward to your tutorial videos! Great work!

[@Johnpatru]

Thank you so much for all the kind words! I am planning on releasing a video about my editing process. Be sure to stay tunes as I will talk about how I get the anamorphic effect and how I colourise my projects! Thank you again for your comment, it is highly appreciated!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello John, nice work, Can you please put up a color grade video ?

[@Johnpatru]

I’m actually working on it as we speak. Thank you so much for the support!

[@zach_blackburn]

This was so epic. Beautiful work for never actually showing Batman. What radial filter did you use for this?

[@Johnpatru]

Thank you🙏🏻! I have used an anamorphic plug in for fcpx. I’m working on a small tutorial so stay tuned for that one!

[@katlis]

@@Johnpatru I would call it more of a vintage Helios 442 type of effect with the radial swirl (instead of vertical). What's funny is, the Helios 442 was actually used for a few shots in "The Batman" movie (specifically car chase scenes). At any rate, it looks great! Nice job!

[@Noahs_Photography]

The color work and editing is great! If i could offer some constructive criticism the radial blurring in the corners could probably be dialed back a small amount. I don't think the effect should be removed entirely though. If you want a reference I noticed some of this effect applied pretty heavily in the new Rebel Moon movie. Great work!

[@Johnpatru]

Thank you for the feedback! I can say that the reason the anamorphic effect looks lime it needs to be toned down is because the sharpness in the centre. I can say that because I found a way to blend the anamorphic effect better without reducing the effect. You will get to see that pretty soon in my next video. Stay tuned! 🙏🏻

[@PerlinerDudes]

it's so damn good bro, keep it up and more of these Gotham Videos pls (i watched it like 100 times)

[@spincity850]

Not sure about the faux swirl anamorphic look personally its pretty overpowering, You can get 1.33x adapters for it on the cheap and then add a little subtle swirl blur in post would look much nicer imo.

[@Johnpatru]

This was my first attempt on using the plug in. At that time I thought it was perfect as I was trying to emulate The Batman look. I have learned to better use it since then. Also, the point was to shoot everything with just the iPhone. Once you start to ad all these adapters and lenses there is no point of shooting with the phone anymore. That is when you just get a cinema camera.
