DOP David Bolen on his lens choice:
“ My favorite lens set by far is the Cooke’s Anamorphic/i Primes. They combine the perfect mixture of bokeh and shallow DOF that anamorphics are known for, while also keeping the warmth and texture associated with the “Cooke Look”. For this documentary project, we wanted the images to feel cinematic and larger-than-life. The Cooke Anamorphic/i Primes were my first choice.“
