Suki Medencevic ASC and the Art of Cinematography
I have found over the years that cinematography is one of the biggest technical issues in independent film. Someone borrows a friends RED Camera or Arri Alexa and thinks that's all you need. Cinematography is not only a mystical art but imperative in today's gluttony of indie films in the market place.
Just because you own or have access to a RED Camera or Arri Alexa does not make you a cinematographer. Many first time directors get fooled by this time and time again.
Good cinematography can really make your independent film project rise out of the gluttony of poorly produced indie films. Today on the show I interviewed Suki Medencevic ASC (American Society of Cinematographers).
Cinematography over Espresso
I've known Suki Medencevic for many years and I loved talking shop with him over an espresso at Starbucks on the Westside of Los Angeles. I wanted to bring that experience to the Indie Film Hustle Tribe.
He's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to cinematography, lights, cameras, lenses, and so on. He also is shooting on film, yes 35mm film on the hit FX Show America Horror Story: Hotel.
He works along side the show's lead cinematographer Michael Goi, ASC, a legend in the business. He also has a new Walt Disney film "Invisible Sister" coming out Oct 9th, 2015. He's a busy guy! Prepare to be enlighten on the art of cinematography.
