Behind the Look: SHORT CLIP | Griselda | DP Armando Salas, ASC and Director Andrés Baiz

"The 1.66:1 allowed us to isolate her (Griselda) without having to get too close to the camera… When you want to do a close-up… the 1.66:1 is a much more comfortable format and the closest to the golden ratio in nature.” -Cinematographer Armando Salas, ASC
