DOP’s Perspective

This was a fast-paced project, moving rapidly from prep through shoot and post, and wrapping almost as quickly as it began. We intentionally kept the crew lean. The director and I wanted a strong sense of fluid, free-flowing movement across every shot.

Shooting on the Ronin 4D felt like the most direct and efficient way to achieve that. Within this weight class, the Cooke SP3 lenses offered the strongest optical choice.
