Lens Distortion
Lens Distortion in film aesthetics can be used on purpose to give a scene a special look or feeling. When a wide-angle lens is used, straight lines at the edge of the frame can appear curved, making spaces look bigger or faces look stretched. This effect can help tell the story by making a scene feel more dreamlike or intense. Filmmakers sometimes use lens distortion to make the audience feel closer to the action or to show a character's point of view in a unique way. By choosing the right lens, designers can control how real or unreal a scene appears, which can change how viewers feel about what they see.
