DOP Ashley Barron on her camera and lens choice:
“Considering that this is a character driven piece that also called for a cinematic feel I felt that the quality and characteristics (the ‘Cooke look’) would be appropriate. Though the character and his world is dark we wanted the audience to be drawn in and relate, to him, and using the Cookes in combination with the Alexa was half the battle. I also felt that creating a visual contradiction between a rounder and softer image, and the hard and dark character would underline the surreality of the comedy in this piece. The zoom allowed us to reveal his world, especially as it evolves, and create a tension and unease for the audience regardless of what location we were in (and we had many).”
