We’re back for the second season of the Cinematography Salon podcast, and we are thrilled to welcome our new co-host Ava Benjamin Shorr alongside returning host Peter Pascucci. Kicking off this season is a deep dive into the filmmaking process of "The Creator", with special guest, cinematographer Oren Soffer. Oren shares a treasure trove of insights about working on the film directed by the visionary Gareth Edwards, known for his groundbreaking work on "Star Wars", "Rogue One", and "Godzilla". The team brought a distinctive touch to "The Creator", opting for a mental shot list which provided a fresh and novel element each day, and fostered the courage and environment to embrace imperfection.
