The Sculptor was one of the first Australian feature films to be filmed using the Red One camera.[5] The film was described as a Supernatural Thriller.[6] Cinematographer Jason Thomas said, "The hype is to be believed. The workflow, resolution, weight, camera features and the rest are unmatched. Forget the whole Film vs Digital debate; this capture system is something again and more." Despite this, the camera was not well understood and the film was shot with blown highlights and other cinematography errors.
