You may have certain way that you like to work and may have certain expectations of your cinematographer. Maybe you like to frame your own shots and have strong opinions on lighting and camera movement. Maybe you honestly don’t want to think about those things and want to devote your time to your actors. Or maybe you are somewhere in the middle.
Whatever your preferences, I want to adapt to you. It's your movie.
On I Am Not A Robot. Brian, the director, was confident about the coverage he wanted from the beginning. My primary role was lighting, lens choice, and composition.
On a recent performance video, Beatles Symphonic, Nick, the director, had me find and frame coverage live, like a documentary cameraman.
In the first meeting I had with Chris Dias, he told me he wanted to film his entire movie, Monster in a House, in one shot. I collaborated with Chris to determine which compositions our steadicam operator would nail and figured out how to light his movie from the ceiling.
Every film is different. Every director is different.
However you’d like to work – let me know. If you have preferences – let me know.
I'll adapt to your style and we'll knock it out of the park.
