Shaky / handheld camerawork loses it for me
25 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
We all love a good zombie apocalypse story, no problem there. For me the biggest, most distracting issue with this production is the camerawork. If you are showing an alarm clock on a nightstand next to someone sleeping, is it really necessary to use an unsteady camera? Shaky-cam, hand-held camera techniques and quick-cuts should be used sparingly, if at all, and certainly not in almost every scene of the production -- even still shots where nothing is moving at all! It makes the viewer feel dizzy and disoriented.

The production is also heavily laden with "The Message" -- I made it through to the middle of episode three. When Frank and Bill starting kissing and climbed into bed together, that was it for me. DNF. Have fun all -- moving on.
