DOP Matt Sakatani Roe on his lens choice:
“Cooke Anamorphics render humanity. They shape the environments we see in a organic way that feels accessible to the viewer. They embrace the falloff, distortion, and aberrations which helps captures mediums achieve a harmonious quality between technology and nature. The 65mm has the ability to capture beautiful portraits and the mechanical ability to quickly record macro details without the need for diopters. We chose Cookes because they take the harshness off images which allows the eyes to relax and absorber the story without being distracted. “
