Director Gareth Edwards turned to cinematographer Greig Fraser ASC, ACS for “Rogue One,” and together they looked at different camera format options. Edwards was initially interested in shooting on film, but while visiting ARRI in Los Angeles, Fraser was given a preview of the ALEXA 65. Available exclusively from ARRI Rental, ALEXA 65 is a large format camera system that offers a true digital version of the historic 65 mm film format.
“When I was first shown it I wasn’t sure what I was looking at,” says Fraser. “I was expecting to be shown something smaller than the standard ALEXA, not a bit bigger. But then I looked in the lens port at the sensor and was just completely gobsmacked by the size of this thing. It was one of those moments where the dominoes instantly start falling in front of you; I remember thinking, ‘Right, here we go – this is the beginning of a new era in cinematography’.”
