I'm not gonna lie everyone, I've given this AI "summary" program quite a few tries the past few weeks and it's been total ass, so I'm just gonna say enjoy this fantastic conversation with Nick Matthews, the DP off "Saw X". I absolutely adored this conversation, he's a fantastic DP and a wonderful man, and it was a privilege to talk to him.

---

NOW, a little inside baseball... I've been emailed too many times from this "podcast assistant" company about giving advice to them... so now having used their product (that I paid for) you tell me what you think of their work. Here we go:

"Listen in as I'm joined by the talented Nick Matthews, the Director of Photography for Song X, as we journey through the evolution of camera technology in filmmaking. From the days of traditional tube cameras to the digital cinema revolution, we reminisce on the progression and reminisce on the good old days of stacking ND filters and metal tubes. As technology continues to evolve, we share our insights on how filmmakers are becoming more camera agnostic and how to maximize resources even with limited budgets.

We continue our engaging conversation by sharing our experiences on transitioning from non-union to union work, discussing the nuances of false color and the unique approaches for DPs. Gearheads will love our chat about the gear I use and how I prove to people they'll love the results. We also fondly look back at the Nycore lenses and the T2i camera, which I bought as a hipster. We then move on to the essential aspects of workflow in shooting a scene, lens selection, and how a c500 can simplify the process.

As we conclude our discussion, Nick and I explore the exciting world of film lighting and color palette. From discussing the challenges of incorporating glamorization techniques into cinematography to creating a unique color palette for films like Saw X, we touch on various aspects that go into creating a compelling visual narrative. We even discuss the emerging Chinese lenses in the market and the challenges of working with international crews. Lastly, we share our experiences in color grading, the importance of hiring a colorist whose vision aligns with yours, and how to build a successful filmmaking career."

I'm sorry I subjected y'all to these show notes. I guess I have to do them myself. Again, I do this all for free, I've yet to recieve a cent for this show, so if one of you wants to be the first, you can support the show at

Join us for an enlightening conversation with the extraordinary Adriano Goldman, Director of Photography for Andor and The Crown. Adriano's distinctive insights illuminate the intricate details of digital IMAX capture, the profound depth of field in the format, and the singular challenge he faced while filming a commercial in the exotic Maldives Islands. We share an honest exchange on the unnerving uncertainties sparked by the sudden halt in production due to strikes, the necessity of investing in constructive downtime, and the undisclosed aspects of these strikes.

In this lively discussion, we address the complicated realities and widespread misconceptions of the film industry. Adriano and I take a deep dive into the trials of articulating the crucial yet misunderstood role of cinematographers to those unfamiliar with the industry, the deceptive glamorization of film work, and the deep-seated respect earned by cinematographers despite such misconceptions. We also explore the blurred lines between production design and cinematography, and the cinematic influence of the 'Bourne Trilogy' on public perception.

For all Star Wars aficionados out there, our conversation leads us to a meticulous examination of the subtle differences between shooting for Andor and The Crown. Adriano offers an insider's glimpse of the commendable effort to maintain the authenticity of the Star Wars universe and realities of the various eras depicted in The Crown, the collaborative dynamic between the cinematographer and production designer, and the painstaking endeavours to realistically portray the sets. Our chat covers a lot more ground, exploring the contrasting color palettes of the two series, and the strategies employed to create relatable sets. Tune in to our engaging banter as we cast light on the gritty reality and the artistic nuances of cinematography.

Get ready for an entertaining discussion as we embark on a roller coaster ride through the cinematic universe with Cinematographer Brandon Cox. Listen in as we kick off our chat with our personal experiences of recent movie viewings including Indiana Jones, John Wick 4, and Asteroid City, discussing how we should take film critics with a pinch of salt and enjoy movies for what they are. We also dissect the different rating systems of Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB, and Letterboxd, and their influence on viewer perception.

We then transition into a debate on the shift from film to digital production and its implications on the visual aesthetics of cinema. Discover our thoughts on working with low-budget video equipment, the unique characteristics of Canon 5D versus reversal film, and the influence of CGI on the modern look of films. We also discuss our experiences with different cameras and software, citing examples from movies like Chris Nolan's Batman and Gareth Edwards' latest project.

In the latter part of our discussion, we shed light on the importance of understanding and mastering lighting techniques in filmmaking. Hear about Brandon's journey from shooting music videos to high-budget films, his experiences on set with stars like Robert De Niro and Dave Bautista, and his love for action movies. We also touch upon the evolution of lighting technology, the benefits of modern LED panels, and how the use of different tools and techniques have transformed over the years. Don't miss out on our take on film restoration and preservation, the importance of archiving movies, and how streaming services have altered the movie release landscape. So, sit back, relax, and join us on this cinematic journey.

On todays episode of the Frame & Reference Podcast, Kenny talks with cinematographer John Brawley, ACS about LAKEWOOD staring Naomi Watts. In this episode, John goes into his journey to becoming a DP as well as shooting LAKEWOOD with the BlackMagic 12k. John built a reputation as one of Australia’s most talented, innovative and collaborative Directors of Photography before relocating to the US where he’s continued to build on that reputation, working nonstop on projects including Apple’s critically acclaimed hit series THE MORNING SHOW starring Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Steve Carell; the highly praised Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult led period dramedy THE GREAT for Hulu/MRC, and NBC’s upcoming true-crime limited series THE THING ABOUT PAM starring Renée Zellweger.

In 2017, John arrived in the US to shoot the USA drama series QUEEN OF THE SOUTH starring Alice Braga.

Other recent credits include the Fox pilot GONE BABY GONE for director Phillip Noyce; the Syfy/UCP series HUNTERS for producer Gale Anne Hurd and Matchbox Pictures; and THE BEAUTIFUL LIE, a contemporary retelling of ANNA KARENINA, starring Sarah Snook, for ABC Television (now on Hulu), which received considerable critical and audience acclaim and earned him an AACTA nomination for Best Cinematography in Television.

John began his career shooting many of Australia’s most beloved series including PUBERTY BLUES, where he used a ground breaking mix of cutting edge technology and period lenses to achieve the 70’s era look; the first six seasons of the award winning dramedy OFFSPRING; the well-known UNDERBELLY series; political drama PARTY TRICKS; and THE WARRIORS for acclaimed Australian producer Robert Connolly, amongst many others.

Other feature credits include 100 BLOODY ACRES starring Angus Sampson and Damon Herriman, cult favorite LAKE MUNGO and THE PERFECT HOST, starring David Hyde Pierce, which premiered at Sundance prior to its US release.

Each episode explores the ways each DP achieves the looks they're known for and the art that inspired them to make those images, as well as the assets that helped them succeed as cinematographers in the first place.

In our first episode, Kenny talks with DP Johnny Derango about shooting Mel Gibsons latest film "Fatman." Johnny also shot the new Hulu series "Everyone is Doing Great" and the feature film "Small Town Crime." You can check out his full filmography on his IMDb page: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0220214/
