A mathematician and a stand-up comedian filmed the platform’s first YouTube video on 35mm film, only occasionally switching the format to 16mm to illustrate a point.
Stand-up Maths’ explainer video is not a short film or an art project. It is specifically YouTube-style educational content. In his exceptionally expensive ($2 per second, not counting the crew fees) video, Matt Parker explained various film formats and aspect ratios, including anamorphic lenses and IMAX. His team did film some anamorphic footage, which you may get as a gift (on a strip of film) if you subscribe to his Patreon account under an appropriate option.
This video was so impressive (just for its sheer audacity) that I half-expected some of it to be filmed on an IMAX camera. That didn’t happen — which I suppose opens the door for someone else to claim YouTube’s first. Maybe Marques Brownlee can afford some?
