As it tends to go with such projects, there were of course additional tools used during the shooting such as professional lighting, a camera-mount for stabilization, and probably others too. That being said, throughout the whole process it was the cameras on the Galaxy S23 Ultra that were recording everything.
The two artists shared their opinions about working with Samsung’s latest high-end flagship, with Labiano admitting he was worried at the beginning that the phone would restrict him. Once he got used to working with the Galaxy S23 Ultra, however, he was surprised by the versatility of the camera system, mentioning its image quality and dynamic range.
Sir Ridley Scott, on the other hand, shares that this was a great and interesting challenge for him and his team. He also hints that it is scary how good small objects like our phones have become at recording footage, adding that this small form factor is also very useful as you can get in small spaces more easily.
Of course, there is probably no need to remind you, but it is good to keep in mind this is all promotional. The Galaxy S23 Ultra could very well — and most probably is — capable of such heights, but this was achieved with the support of a whole team of professional film makers. That being said, though, it is exciting to see how much Samsung has pushed the envelope with its latest high-ender.
