WHAT I DO

 

The cinematographer is responsible for all the visual elements of a film. He or she makes every creative choice related to composition, lighting and camera motion - everything an audience can see in a given shot. The Cinematographer determines all aspects of color, depth-of-field, choice of film stock, gate format or camera sensor.
