I forget where, but Pete said that when they did Obama, alphacats head movements changed how they had to film. I think he meant that they originally, before the battle, did all the full body stuff, then the half-body, then close-up. After that, they moved to using two cameras at the same time to get the same movements in a close and full, and thus more fluid cuts between movements. Those camera were in 1080p HD. Peter said they got a new camera from Canon, and went back to only using one camera for this half. I think it is just one 4K camera. They would use this method so they can get the acting in one big shot, and then adjust the scale of the shot in post without it getting blurry and pixelated. Just a thought, not really important, but it's an interesting way to think about what they do to film.
