Had to sneak this in before the end of the year! 25 years ago I was very surprised to find myself with so many cinematographers that I adored and respected. I still feel the same way when I get to catch up with them in person! Many have also made the move to directing, and I hope they love it as much as I do! I am so grateful for getting to do this for a living, and just now having visited the rural countryside of my childhood, I am reminded by how much I thought getting to tell stories the way we do was a very … very long shot. Here’s wishing all the fellow dreamers (do we ever stop?) a creative and prosperous 2026!!!!!

A very late post of the moment we realized @dejan_georgevich_asc had a doppelgänger portrait at the Lotus Club just before the wonderful NYC ASC celebration. Big shout out to everyone who supports The ASC, from members with their time to all the amazing sponsors who help with events like these!!! @the__asc #cinematography #nycphotographer #filmmaking #nyccinematographer
In case my post yesterday was too mysterious, I was super happy to get to chat with the wonderful Alice Brooks, ASC about not just the technical aspects of shooting a massive musical, but also her approach to creating a team of creatively motivated folk that are all working to make a story. The conversation is live on youtube, look for "Shotdeck: shot talk" and I'll include the link in the comments.
Hey gang! Hosting a free webinar on Monday 12/8 at noon PST with the editor of Bosch: Legacy ep 308, Rafael Nur! Big thanks to him for taking the time to talk about working on the Director’s cut on a series!!!
In this Clubhouse Conversations episode, cinematographer Kasper Tuxen, DFF @kaspertuxen joins interviewer Patrick Cady, ASC @pcadyasc to break down his work on Sentimental Value @sentimentalvaluefilm , a family drama from director Joachim Trier. Tuxen discusses shaping a visual language inspired by Nordic light and Tarkovsky, balancing realism and poetry through handheld work and varied film stocks, and crafting key sequences in the theater, on a train, and on Deauville Beach. He also details how in-camera effects, bleach bypass, and evolving palettes helped convey decades of emotional change, grounding the entire approach in empathy and collaboration.

I need my film historian pals to chime in… I have acquired some old filters and Camera items in great metal (Kennedy) tool chests labeled “Technicolor”. Here’s the first question which I know is going to be an easy one. What camera used these wratten gel holders? Formerly used by Landon V (“Don) Senick! Google his history, especially as a Movitone News Cinematographer in the Pacific during WWII, impressive stuff!
Friends old and new. @pcadyasc Patrick Cady as nice and talented as they come as a DP, director and producer and Juju Green aka @straw_hat_goofy who has taken the podcasting world by storm, a hard working brotha whom Tom Cruise and Ryan Coogler have on speed dial for behind the scenes featurettes! We had a great time at a screening at reception for Ryan Coogler’s smash film, @sinnersmovie . Two great guys!! #sinners #imax #movies
