Cinematographers Share Their Secrets

Monday, January 27, 2014
Discussion & Audience Q&A: 7:30pm - 9:00pm

The Cinefamily - 611 N. Fairfax Avenue, LA, CA 90036


Your cinematographer will make or break your film. No other relationship is more central to the success of your project than this one, and, yet, the skills, tools, and insights of cinematographers are somewhat mysterious to the rest of us. No more. Whether you are a shooter yourself or a documentary filmmaker who has never picked up a camera, your work will benefit immensely from this Doc U spotlighting the art and craft of cinematography from the point of view of some of the top shooters in documentary today.

Join us for an eye-opening and free-ranging discussion with these highly talented and articulate cinematographers moderated by Emmy award-winning filmmaker Greg Barker (Manhunt, Koran by Heart, Sergio). Panelists include: Nick Higgins (The Crash Reel, The Short Game, First Position), Arlene Nelson (Valentine Road, The Beaches of Agnès, A Mighty Wind), Andrew Droz Palermo (Rich Hill, A Teacher, Black Metal), and Emily Topper (Baltimore, After Tiller, Ain’t in It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm).
