The opening moments of the film are a visual ride, from a blood-soaked chimp inside a TV studio to Keith David on a horse as debris starts falling from the sky. Hoytema and Peele knew the sharp resolution would bring audiences into this world. Wincott, Hoytema says, would shadow him learning how to use cameras, but also talked around lighting and the technical nitty-gritty of cinematography to ensure when he was using the hand-operated camera on screen, he was doing so with accuracy.
