Shot of the week, cinematography wise.

Hey guys, I know your mind howls at you regarding my title above, how can he say its the best its just the first day! Pipe down and listen, chaches, the point is so far I think this shot is going to be the best there is this week and trust me my seer work is definitely not rusty. This scene suddenly gifted with fame is from the hit AMC show, Mad men. The men of Madison avenue!...and so forth and ahem, on to the scene!

Context update! We are at the third episode of the current season 4 and we have just found out that Ana Draper, the one who ball and chained her self to the real Don Draper, has been inflicted with Cancer. we are about 22 minutes into the scene(well when you watch it on DVR from com-cast) and Don sits down and lights up one. it is about a thirty second shot and a single one as well but the color and graphics used in that thirty second shot is phenomenal! we have a few different shades migrate with each other. depending on your favorite genre of movie or whether you might be a comic fan, whatever tickles your fancy optically could be seen in this shot. i personally saw a pastel painting, comic page scene, flintstonesy house look , you get my point. We can see this is the main feature of the shot as John Hamm( portrays pimp Don Draper) stays still looking down. once again, hats bowed to the Director who created that monster of a shot.

Well till then friends, keep watching TV, smile and watch a Guy Ritchie movie once a while, aye?

tata then,
