The discussion revolves around the artistic use of the binocular shot technique in videography, which some commenters consider more of a stylistic choice than a necessity. There are mixed opinions on its relevance. One comment reflects on the subjective nature of truth in art, illustrating this with a reference to George Lucas's approach to sound in film. The conversation touches on how creativity is sometimes prioritized over strict realism in film and media, citing specific movies and stylistic choices that can evoke certain emotions or atmospheres. However, there's also acknowledgment of a broader spectrum of creative techniques that filmmakers employ, raising questions about when such choices elevate the narrative versus being purely aesthetic.
