‘Black Swan’ Cover by Sarah Mosher
This is something I shot and technical directed with Sarah last April, almost a YEAR ago today.
I had a few issues in post and other projects that overlapped…and so the project sat on my drive for a far too long.
Really happy how this turned out. Thank you to my incredible team.
We had four hours to shoot and wrap the whole day. I think this came out phenomenal.

CAMERA TEST, 16mm 500T 7219
While I’m waiting to release a few projects, I thought I’d share a test that was sitting in my archives for a little while…
Had the pleasure to join @joaquim.pujol on his feature shoot. Needed a good excuse to shoot some tungsten stock.

It was an absolute pleasure to shoot the @hanszimmerlive show. This epic conglomeration of musicians, led by the greatest composer in the world, was truly a spectacle to see!
A big THANK YOU to @moonsmartfocus@sonyprofilmmaking and @25hour_rental for equipping us to capture this dynamic show - we could not have done it without you. We loved shooting on the @sonycine Burano, and the @moonsmartfocus was an incredible tool for maintaining sharp focus.

It was incredibly thrilling when Jonny @jonny.shaheri and @shaherimusic asked me to shoot the ‘DOKHTAR SHEKAR’ music video. Working with Jonny and his band was a huge pleasure, and I felt honored.
I am unbelievably grateful towards my wonderful crew who dedicated immense amounts of energy in creating these shots. Truly, thank you to my team for such brilliant work!
A special thank you to Janet @janetrostondance for her beautiful choreography and ability to work with the camera department.

Also, I know there’s a random audio click towards the end…I gave up trying to remove it.
Max Zimmer Cinematography Reel 2023:
This year felt very quick. I think my knowledge and love for film grew immensely, however.
I feel that being surrounded by such tenacious yet effervescent crew members allowed the work to flow so smoothly (with a few reputable war stories ever so often). It is imperative to have such fantastic people to work with.
I look forward to continue into next year with the brilliant people beside me, and fascinating productions to capture.
