EmailThe Night Of is a miniseries that just ended on HBO and has recieved critical acclaim accross the board.
In our Video of the Day we are posting a video that examines the framing of shots throughout the series. This supercut of some of the best shots from the series was assembled by Zackery Ramos-Taylor and shows us The Night Of and its relation to 3x3 framing.
