Academy Award®-winning Director of Photography Greig Fraser, ACS, ASC, returns to the podcast to discuss his work on “Dune: Part Two.” The film is a stunning achievement, from both the technical and artistic standpoints, which benefitted greatly from being a continuation of his work from part one:
“Whenever you do a movie, you've got to solve a series of problems... And a lot of the technical stuff had been solved for us in advance, because we'd done part one. So this allowed us the opportunity to dream a little bit. And I wouldn't say, ‘dream bigger.’ But it allowed us to dream with more opportunity… We felt empowered that we were doing the right thing. At least, people were appreciating the job that we had done. And instead of having that paralyze us... We were able to make bold decisions and bold choices. Like the infrared photography on Giedi Prime and the eclipse scene. So we were able to do that a little bit more boldly.“
