One of my first scenes photographing @kingofbingo on “SING SING”, almost 2 years ago exactly.
SING SING was filmed in a way that gave our actors a lot of freedom to move, to improvise, to play, to feel.
The camera rarely approached a performance technically, but was always just sort of in the middle of it.
This could be potentially distracting to some, but Coleman treated me and the camera like another actor on stage. Moving and sharing a scene together, instead of one performing and one capturing.
In our larger scenes our whole cast fully embodied this spirit. It was like we were all participating in live theater each take and I felt then, and still feel, forever part of those performances.
🙏🏽🙏🏽 thanks for the experience.
If you look close you can spot the lenses that @dan_sasaki made for us on A Quiet Place: Day One. With an extra special Pig decal for luck. Thanks Dan, @m_p_carter Charlie, @nicky_slinn , @panavisionofficial Woodland Hills and London offices. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 your support was never ending.

IN THEATERS JULY 12 !!!!!
I don’t normally ask this on here, but please go see this in a theater. Bring everyone you know.
So many of the men in this film were formally incarcerated actors, playing versions of themselves.
It’s their stories we’re telling.
They got back into greens and went back inside to show the world there’s so much more behind the walls of any given prison in America.
They are some of the most wonderful people to be around, please please please get out and support them.
Trailer in bio.
