Team Deakins sits down with first assistant director Peter Kohn (LA LA LAND, BIRDMAN, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN) for a conversation. In this episode, Peter tells us how his father’s career in the industry influenced his aspirations and his taste in films– he loves watching and working on musicals. Peter shares stories from working on the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy and Birdman, working with Gordon Willis, and doing smoke on the set of Ridley Scott’s The Duellists. Together we talk about what makes a successful assistant director, having a big first day on set, the many factors that dictate the shooting schedule, and even car work. Peter also sneaks in a few questions about 1917! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #teamdeakins #teamdeakinspodcast #rogerdeakins #jamesellisdeakins #jamesdeakins #collaboration #cinematography #PeterKohn #AssistantDirector #FirstAD #AD #LaLaLand #Birdman #SevenPsycopaths #ThreeBillboards #TheGreatestShowman #BladesofGlory #FiftyShades #DGA #PiratesoftheCaribbean #po...
