Too many to decide upon one from cinema, but The Twilight Zone had some episodes with George T. Clements behind the camera that were fucking ravishing.
Cool, I’m meant to understand he’s quite a lush too, just to complete the image. That run with WKW is just sublime, and his touch of anarchy makes it really just sing in a way that I don’t get from the usual “masters of light” without ever feeling pretentious.Patrick H wrote: Sun May 22, 2022 1:57 amIn the late 2000s I got to work on a commercial with Christopher Doyle (I was the 2nd AC). Rock star is an apt description as it felt like working with Keith Richards, down to the impenetrable accent. He had a half dozen film stocks, all mapped out shot-by-shot, and was a pro. But very funny and a gentleman.zorg wrote: Sat May 21, 2022 11:46 am As much as I hate a lot of movies, directors, actors, writers, fx guys, I don’t think I mind any cinematographers, but Chris Doyle is a bit of a rock star. And Nykvist and Ballhaus for their indispensible contributions to their respective collaborators films.
