About Cinematography Salon
A podcast about how films actually get shot. Every other Thursday, host Jared Levy takes one film or series and walks through it with the cinematographer who shot it: prep and testing, the camera and lens decisions and why, how the hard scenes were lit, what changed on the day, what the grade did. One project, start to finish, from the person who lit it. For a century people learned this from a stack of American Cinematographer and whoever on set would explain a setup. That is what this is. Free, no paywall, on purpose. Learning to light a scene should not depend on what you can afford.

And we talked about everything as a team, as department heads. It was really a cool experience. Yeah, that's quite interesting to have to go through that practice because obviously you're doing it so that you can... successfully get approval from the studio but in the end you also aligned yourself with your other department heads and I mean there must have been a lot of benefit too in regard was there a lot of set building on it and like were they incorporating it was like production designer was incorporating and was she incorporating or they um incorporating a lot of Like practical lighting and the design work for you and things like that.
