I'd love to hear everybody's pet peeves in movie and TV production. (sh.itjust.works)

Actors not sweeping correctly when somebody broke a glass or somebody's ashes were spilled on the floor or something like that is infuriating hahha.

They're always having some serious conversation with heavy relationship complications, but whoever has the broom is literally tapping at the mess on the floor because they know that the production crew is going to clean it up for them after the shoot, so they, the ac-tors, don't have to actually sweep the mess into the dustbin.

I f****** hate that.

That blurry fisheye lens that's come into fashion. Sabrina used it a ton and that's where I first really noticed it, but I've seen it a few other places now and it annoys me. I just think it looks dumb.

Which Sabrina, the teenage witch?

I agree that blurry fish eye lenses is a cinematic trick that needs to be done away with, I think it's down to production budget usually.

Ya, new Sabrina on Netflix.

Exception: Peep Show does fish eye lens shots well.
