Today, on the newest episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we’re joined by fellow cinematographer and the Co-Head of Cinematography at the National Film and Television School (NFTS) Oliver Stapleton (THE CIDER HOUSE RULES, THE GRIFTERS, MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE). We discuss how, as a cinematographer, one’s job is to help the director execute their vision rather than impose your own on a film, and Oliver reveals how he grapples with finding the best way to introduce young directors and cinematographers to each other in film school. We ask Oliver what his most important takeaway was from his time as a student at the NFTS and whether he would, in retrospect, change anything. Towards the end, with a look to his past, Oliver remembers how he once animated Spiderman in his youth, and, with a look to our future, he predicts the future of filmmaking and moviegoing. ⁠ ⁠ It was great speaking with Oliver, and we hope you enjoy the episode!⁠ -⁠ This episode is sponsored by Fiilex⁠ Instagram: fiilex...
