<p><b>Deep focus</b> is a photographic and cinematographic technique using a large <a href="Depth_of_field" title="Depth of field">depth of field</a>. Depth of field is the front-to-back range of <a href="Focus_(optics)" title="Focus (optics)">focus</a> in an image, or how much of it appears sharp and clear. In deep focus, the foreground, middle ground, and background are all in focus.
</p><p>Deep focus is normally achieved by choosing a small <a href="Aperture" title="Aperture">aperture</a>. Since the aperture of a camera determines how much light enters through the lens, achieving deep focus requires a bright scene or <a href="Long-exposure_photography" title="Long-exposure photography">long exposure</a>. A <a href="Wide-angle_lens" title="Wide-angle lens">wide-angle lens</a> also makes a larger portion of the image appear sharp.
</p><p>It is also possible to achieve the illusion of deep focus with optical tricks (split-focus <a href="Diopter" class="mw-redirect" title="Diopter">diopter</a>) or by <a href="Compositing" title="Compositing">compositing</a> two or more images together using <a href="Focus_stacking" title="Focus stacking">focus stacking</a>.
</p><p>The opposite of deep focus is <a href="Shallow_focus" title="Shallow focus">shallow focus</a>, in which the plane of the image that is in focus is very shallow.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> For example, the foreground might be in focus while the middle-ground and background are out-of-focus.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Deep_focus_and_deep_space">Deep focus and deep space</h2></div>
<p>When deep focus is used, filmmakers often combine it with deep <i>space</i> (also called deep staging). Deep space is a part of <i><a href="Mise-en-sc%C3%A8ne" title="Mise-en-scène">mise-en-scène</a></i>, placing significant actors and props in different planes of the picture. Directors and cinematographers may use deep space <i>without</i> using deep focus, being either an artistic choice or because they do not have resources to create a deep focus look, or both.
</p><p>Directors may use deep focus in only some scenes or even just some shots. Other auteurs choose to use it consistently throughout the movie, either as a stylistic choice or because they believe it represents reality better. Filmmakers such as <a href="Akira_Kurosawa" title="Akira Kurosawa">Akira Kurosawa</a>, <a href="Stanley_Kubrick" title="Stanley Kubrick">Stanley Kubrick</a>, <a href="Kenji_Mizoguchi" title="Kenji Mizoguchi">Kenji Mizoguchi</a>, <a href="Orson_Welles" title="Orson Welles">Orson Welles</a>, <a href="Masahiro_Shinoda" title="Masahiro Shinoda">Masahiro Shinoda</a>, <a href="Akio_Jissoji" title="Akio Jissoji">Akio Jissoji</a>, <a href="Terry_Gilliam" title="Terry Gilliam">Terry Gilliam</a>, <a href="Jean_Renoir" title="Jean Renoir">Jean Renoir</a>, <a href="Jacques_Tati" title="Jacques Tati">Jacques Tati</a>, <a href="James_Wong_Howe" title="James Wong Howe">James Wong Howe</a> and <a href="Gregg_Toland" title="Gregg Toland">Gregg Toland</a> all used deep focus as part of their signature style.
</p><p>For French film critic <a href="Andr%C3%A9_Bazin" title="André Bazin">André Bazin</a>, deep-focus visual style was central to his theory of realism in film. He elaborated in an analysis of how deep focus functions in a scene from Wyler's <i><a href="The_Best_Years_of_Our_Lives" title="The Best Years of Our Lives">The Best Years of Our Lives</a></i>:

</style><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>The action in the foreground is secondary, although interesting and peculiar enough to require our keen attention since it occupies a privileged place and surface on the screen. Paradoxically, the true action, the one that constitutes at this precise moment a turning point in the story, develops almost clandestinely in a tiny rectangle at the back of the room—in the left corner of the screen.... Thus the viewer is induced actively to participate in the drama planned by the director.<sup id="cite_ref-Bazin_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Bazin-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Deep_focus_and_different_formats">Deep focus and different formats</h2></div>
<p>The choice of shooting format affects how easy it would be to achieve a deep focus look. This is because the size of the <a href="Image_Sensor" class="mw-redirect" title="Image Sensor">sensor</a> or <a href="Film_gauge" title="Film gauge">film gauge</a> dictates what particular <a href="Lens_(optics)" class="mw-redirect" title="Lens (optics)">lens</a> <a href="Focal_length" title="Focal length">focal length</a> would be used in order to achieve a desired viewing angle. Smaller sensors or film gauges will require an overall range of shorter focal lengths to achieve any desired viewing angle than larger sensors or film gauges. Because depth of field is a characteristic of lens focal length (in addition to aperture and focus distance setting), it is easier to achieve a deep-focus look with a smaller imaging sensor or film gauge. For example, a 40mm lens will give a 30-degree horizontal angle of view in the Super35 format. To achieve the same viewing angle with a 1/2" 16:9 sensor, you would need a 13mm lens. A 13mm lens inherently has much more depth-of-field than a 40mm lens. To achieve the same depth of field with a 40mm lens would require a very small aperture, which in turn would require far more light, and therefore time and expense.
</p><p>Some filmmakers make deliberate use of the deep-focus capabilities of digital formats. <i><a href="Miami_Vice_(film)" title="Miami Vice (film)">Miami Vice</a></i> (<a href="Michael_Mann_(director)" class="mw-redirect" title="Michael Mann (director)">Michael Mann</a>, 2006), a movie that was shot digitally early in the conversion from film to digital formats, made use of this capability. Cinematographer <a href="Dion_Beebe" title="Dion Beebe">Dion Beebe</a> commented:
</p>
<blockquote><p>We also decided that there were attributes of HD technology we liked and wanted to exploit, like the increased depth of field. Because of the cameras' chip size (2/3"), they have excessive depth of field that we decided not to fight, but rather utilize.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Split-focus_diopter">Split-focus diopter</h2></div>
<p>In the 1970s, directors made frequent use of the split-focus diopter. With this invention it was possible to have one plane in focus in one part of the picture and a different plane in focus in the other half of the picture. This was and still is very useful for the <a href="Anamorphic_widescreen" title="Anamorphic widescreen">anamorphic widescreen</a> format, which has less depth of field.
</p><p>A split diopter is half convex glass that attaches in front of the camera's main <a href="Photographic_lens" class="mw-redirect" title="Photographic lens">lens</a> to make half the lens nearsighted. The lens can focus on a plane in the background and the diopter on a foreground. A split diopter does not create real deep focus, only the illusion of this. What distinguishes it from traditional deep focus is that there is not continuous depth of field from foreground to background; the space between the two sharp objects is out of focus. Because split focus diopters only cover half the lens, shots in which they are used are characterized by a blurred line between the two planes in focus.
</p><p>The diopter gave the opportunity for spectacular deep focus-compositions that would have been impossible to achieve otherwise. In the <a href="American_New_Wave" class="mw-redirect" title="American New Wave">American New Wave</a>, director <a href="Brian_De_Palma" title="Brian De Palma">Brian De Palma</a> explored the possibilities of the split-focus diopter extensively, as did other '70s films such as <a href="Robert_Wise" title="Robert Wise">Robert Wise</a>'s <i><a href="The_Andromeda_Strain_(film)" title="The Andromeda Strain (film)">The Andromeda Strain</a></i> and <i><a href="Star_Trek%3A_The_Motion_Picture" title="Star Trek: The Motion Picture">Star Trek: The Motion Picture</a></i>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Use_in_modern_films">Use in modern films</h2></div>
<p>Starting in the 1980s, American cinema has developed a trend that film scholar <a href="David_Bordwell" title="David Bordwell">David Bordwell</a> calls intensified continuity.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Bordwell claims that:
</p>
<ol><li>The average length of each shot in a film has become shorter over the years</li>
<li>Scenes are built up by closer framing</li>
<li>More extreme focal lengths are used</li>
<li>The scenes include an increased number of camera moves</li></ol>
<p>This trend has led to deep focus becoming less common in Hollywood movies. As mentioned in Bordwell's second point, master shots where two or more characters hold a conversation have gone out of fashion, lessening the need for deep focus. In a contemporary Hollywood movie a dialogue scene may consist only of tight close-ups, with the master shot abandoned. If more than one plane in the image contains narrative information, filmmakers switch focus ("rack focusing") instead of keeping both focal planes sharp. In addition, modern sets tend to have less lighting for more comfortable working conditions, and use of deep focus tends to require more light.
</p><p>The development of intensified continuity may be due to directors' desire to capture the action or dialogue from many different angles and views. Getting these shots is called <i>coverage</i>. The film critic <a href="Dave_Kehr" title="Dave Kehr">Dave Kehr</a> explains it this way:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>If there is a single word that sums up the difference between filmmaking at the middle of the 20th century and the filmmaking of today, it is "coverage". Derived from television, it refers to the increasingly common practice of using multiple cameras for a scene (just as television would cover a football game).<sup id="cite_ref-kehr-2006_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-kehr-2006-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>To stage a whole scene in one shot is no longer common. Director <a href="Steven_Soderbergh" title="Steven Soderbergh">Steven Soderbergh</a> claims:
</p>
<blockquote><p>That kind of staging is a lost art, which is too bad. The reason they no longer work that way is because it means making choices, real choices, and sticking to them. (...) That's not what people do now. They want all the options they can get in the editing room.<sup id="cite_ref-kehr-2006_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-kehr-2006-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote><p> An extreme case of filming in one-shot is the feature-length film, <i><a href="Russian_Ark" title="Russian Ark">Russian Ark</a></i> (2002), recorded in one take.
