What does it mean to carry someone else’s artistic legacy forward? Bianca Cline joins the Cinematography Salon Podcast to share a rare and deeply moving look behind the lens, stepping into the unfinished production of Rust following the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, ASC. Bianca discusses the moral and emotional calculus behind accepting the role, her consultations with Hutchins’ family, and the quiet determination to preserve Halyna’s memory. 

A memorial scholarship has been established in Halyna's name at the AFI Conservatory. Donate here it you wish to contribute to the scholarship fund.
