Cinematographer Quotes

Every cinematographer I worked with had his own way of solving problems Picture Quote #1

I have always wanted to be either a cinematographer or a veterinarian Picture Quote #1

The eye solicited alone makes the ear impatient, the ear solicited alone makes the eye impatient. Use these impatiences. Power of the cinematographer who appeals to the two senses in a governable way. Against the tactics of speed, of noise, set tactics of slowness, of silence Picture Quote #1

An action choreographer is kind of like a dance choreographer. You choreograph the moves and you let the director, cinematographer take into positioning their cameras Picture Quote #1

The way I work with my cinematographer is not based on general principles, but the ideas are triggered by the locations where we shoot Picture Quote #1

I was very glad later when I was directing that I wasn’t in the hands of a cinematographer and hoping that he would do it well. I would know what he was doing, and we could discuss how that scene would look Picture Quote #1

When I was in pre-production for Trees Lounge, I was hearing the cinematographer talking with the production designer about colours and this and that, and feeling like I was losing control Picture Quote #1

I think I learned a lot on Beaches. A guy I worked with Dante Spinotti is a wonderful cinematographer and it was his first picture and he went on to be nominated for an Academy Award for LA Confidential which was great Picture Quote #1

I think people just see cinematography as being about photography and innovative shots and beautiful lighting. We all want our movies to look great visually, to be beguiling and enticing, but I think that what really defines a great cinematographer is one who loves story Picture Quote #1

I’ve kept the people who’ve been in my career who I feel are my family. Kathy [Kennedy] had been with me since 1978. Janusz Kaminsky, my cinematographer, has made every movie with me since Schindler’s List. Michael Kahn has cut every movie I’ve directed since 1976 when we made Close Encounters together. Rick Carter has done more than 15 of my directed films as a production designer Picture Quote #1

So we got there at 6 a.m. We’d be shooting by 6:45. We wouldn’t break for lunch, we’d just pass food around all day. And we would just rock and roll ‘til 4, then Matty Libatique, our great cinematographer, would say, ‘Outta light, guys’ - and that was it Picture Quote #1

My favorite part of the whole filmmaking process is working with a fantastic cinematographer, a fantastic actor or actors, and then just creating emotions and stories. I get so excited by that. That’s the part I’m utterly addicted to Picture Quote #1

Everyone his own cinematographer. His own stream-of-consciousness e-mail poet. His own nightclub DJ. His own political columnist. His own biographer of his top-10 friends! Picture Quote #1

As the cinematographer is usually more visual than the director is and full cooperation is really the answer and to make a great film, you need a good director and you need a good cinematographer Picture Quote #1
