The footage with the film's director James Gunn and director of photography Henry Braham, BSC, see the two discuss their vision for the movie and the experience they wanted to give viewers. Their desire to display a larger-than-life adventure is punctuated with intimate human moments made the compact form factor and large sensor size of the WEAPON 8K VV the perfect camera to capture the immersive experience they desired.
