Steven Soderbergh’s PRESENCE is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Shot entirely on the SONY a9iii mirrorless camera, this psychological horror movie puts you in the POV of a ghost, silently observing a family in their new home -and discovering they’re not alone.
In this video, I break down exactly how Soderbergh pulled this off, from using a compact mirrorless camera with a global shutter, to creating a minimalist setup with just practical lights, a 14mm lens, and a gimbal. Plus, I chat with some of the cast and even test the gear myself to see how close I can get to the look of PRESENCE all by myself.
