Wide Screen Film Formats

Tell me your favorite episode for the 6th anniversary show!

You might have noticed that your television screen today is rectangular, but in the past, TV screens were more square. Yet, sometimes you might have seen black bars on either the top or the side of what you are watching. 

The width, or lack thereof, of a film or TV show is known as its aspect ratio.

Throughout the history of cinema, aspect ratios have changed drastically, as have the ways images were captured.

Learn more about wide film formats, how they work, and why they were developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
