Pierre Gill conducts technical session at IFFI 2018

Panaji, Nov 26 (UNI) The budding cinematographers and students of photography were in for a treat as International Film Festival of India (IFFI) 2018 had a wonderful session with two-time winner of American Society of Cinematographers, USA (ASC Award) Pierre Gill on Sunday.

The Canadian cinematographer is best known for his work on films such as Black List, The Art of War, Lost and Delirious, The Rocket, Polytechnique, and Upside Down. He served as the second unit director of photography on Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049, which won the Academy Award for Best Cinematography.

The session gave the audience members a technical insight into the world of cinematography. Pierre spoke about the various factors that make or break ‘a perfect shot’, such as the type of lens to be used, the light arrangement, the camera angle, whether to use monochrome or colour, and many more.

While stressing on the importance of making the actor or actress look good, Pierre said, “The actress has the power to ask for a specific cinematographer when she knows that she’s going to look good.” The talented lensman then highlighted the importance of lighting up facial features of the actor, such as the eyes. Pierre said, “The eyes are critical for me. The soul of the person is behind his or her eyes. It is important to choose the lens based on the facial structure of the actor.”
