Boyle tells Ign Despite not being shot on the suit of large -forming cameras, their upcoming zombie apocalypse will be presented in a very comprehensive 2.76: 1 aspect ratio.
“We thought we would benefit from the restlessness that the first firm created about speed and velocity, the way the infected, was painted (aspect) of his intestine (aspect). If you are on a widescreen format, they can be anywhere … You have to keep scanning, look around for them.”

Shooting of several cameras at a time also means that, in editing, it is easy to choose a specific perspective that is slightly different from the rest. It can also be used for timing and switching between cameras during manic action.
“As it is a horror film, we use it to emphasize their impact for violent scenes,” Boyle says.
