‘’ Sometimes I wish nobody would talk about how the movies are made.
The idea would be that the audience goes to the theatre and they don’t
even notice how it’s shot. I want the audience to just become immersed
in the movie and feel the anxiety that the character goes through while
his life implodes. That would be ideal.’’ by Emmanuel Lubezki

The Deakins quote is from an interview with Screencrush (the website). Roger Deakins on Sicario, September 2015. Thanks for visiting the website.

I couldn’t find the origin of this one either:
“The biggest challenge of any cinematographer is making the imagery fit together of a piece: that the whole film has a unity to it, and actually, that a shot doesn’t stand out.”
Deakins

Hi Joana, the quote’s from the book Cinematography: Screencraft by Peter Ettedgui (Focal Press 1999). Highly recommended for any cinematographer.

May I ask where this quote is from?
“There’s always the intention to create visually stunning images, but ultimately, my greatest concern is to stay true to the drama of the scene”?
Thank you!

Hi Steve

The quote is from the book Reflections: Twenty-One Cinematographers At Work by Benjamin Bergery (Chapter 11 – Beauty and the Beast, Page 86).

The book is well worth purchasing for the Alekan interview alone.

Thanks for stopping by. David
