"In my mind, once a cinematographer starts working on a film and begins a collaboration with a director, they should never actually stop being a part of that film, ever. This is because cinematographers provide a unique function. 1/2

"I think that the best films have been made through great director/cinematographer collaborations and a good collaboration will usually elevate the work of both the director and the cinematographer."

"Doing good work in day exterior situations means that you must be able to make great images all day long, even when the light isn't ideal for pretty pictures. You must make choices that will allow you to take advantage of natural light in existing conditions. 1/2
