Ahead of Call of Duty: Vanguard's release on November 5, Activision and Sledgehammer Games have released a new video that reveals Oscar-nominated cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema worked on the game. Van Hoytema is known for working with Christopher Nolan, and he was the cinematographer on Nolan's Interstellar, Dunkirk, and Tenet, and he also worked on the James Bond movie Spectre. He earned an Academy Award nomination for Dunkirk, and will re-team with Nolan for the movie Oppenheimer, which has been in the news lately.

For Vanguard, van Hoytema helped bring a new level of cinematic artistry to the WWII shooter. Specifically, van Hoyteman said he provided input in the area of helping the developers turn some dials down in an effort to make the atomosphere feel more genuine.

"We had a lot of discussions about how can we make things feel more real, and how can we make things feel as if they are a part of our real world," he said. "Sometimes you can create a beautiful sunset--just because you can--but maybe that sunset you should just tone down; make it grayer, make it a little more depressing, make it a little less flashy."
