Shogun Ep3 was intense.
One thing I noticed (and something I hope some of you film nerds might be able to shed some more light on) is that they are using a very interesting focus technique/style.
In each shot, only the actor or action that should be the centre of attention is in focus, and everything outside of that is out of focus. I don't think it's a depth of field thing because even things on the same plane are out of focus. It's like they've applied a circular filter so that only the important parts are in focus.
Anyone else notice this? Is this just some visual style I'm unfamiliar with?
