CINEMATOGRAPHY

"Cinematography is the art and technology of motion-picture photography. It involves such techniques as the general composition of a scene; the lighting of the set or location; the choice of cameras, lenses, filters, and film stock; the camera angle and movements; and the integration of any special effects."

Below are some screenshots from a short film I was hired for as cinematographer. 

Cinematography is where I feel most at home and I would like to explain how I got here - Mr Tievoli

Inspiration from movies has played a huge part in developing my artistic personality and style. This came much later in my life, as despite watching my fair share of movies I wouldn't have considered myself a movie buff. The impact watching movies eventually had on me didn't become apparent until my 30's when I began to be drawn deeper and deeper into the world of cinematography. I began to appreciate the skill involved in turning a movie set into a story using a limitless number of techniques that up and until now I had been naturally drawn to in my own art. I love the way colour, shadows, lights and composition work in harmony to carry a feeling of emotion to the audience watching. It's a visual expression of something deep and this is what I knew I wanted to do. I express myself through my art and I now have the best medium with which to do this. Film.
