Because of the two timelines – 2018 and flashbacks to the 1990s – the “Perfume” team used two different camera systems. “On the one hand the newest and most leading-edge format there is: the ARRI ALEXA 65. And we contrast this digital, incredibly sharp and imposing picture with the grainy shots of an analog ARRIFLEX on 16-mm film,” visual designer Jakub Bejnarowicz explains. “The idea was to represent the journey through time by means of the greatest possible difference in the feel of the images. Juxtaposing the two provides a fantastic contrast.”
