Although cinematographers are vital to the filmmaking process, they
don't always get the recognition they deserve. Directors of
cinematography often are responsible for the look of a film and its
lasting impression on the viewer, but their skills are not as
readily appreciated as those of directors or screenwriters. David
A. Ellis had the privilege of meeting with a number of accomplished
cinematographers to discuss their art and craft. In Conversation
with Cinematographers features interviews with 21 directors of
photography--as well as two notable camera operators--most of whom
still work in film and television today. In this volume, readers
are taken behind the scenes of some of the most successful films
and shows of the last several decades. Interviewed in this book
are: * Sue Gibson (Hear My Song, The Forsyte Saga) * Gavin Finney
