Our Role

As director of photography, we help plan the shots, operate the camera, and stay available through pre production and rehearsals so the look is settled before the first take. We also worked with the director to gather the crew that made each film happen.

Behind the Scenes

We documented the shoots as they happened. The goal was to show the work behind the finished films, the crew, the locations and the choices made on set, so the look on screen is understood as something built with care.

Worked out before the cameras rolled

Every move was rehearsed ahead of time, so the action could be shot safely and on schedule.
