## Caption

In Sunday’s episode, Team Deakins has the pleasure of speaking with Bill McDonald of the UCLA Cinematography Department. In this episode, we discuss Bill’s dual career, one of shooting professional and teaching and the similarities in the qualities of an instructor and cinematographer, and how cinematography is a field of mentorship. We learn why he loves shooting second unit and teaching first-year students. Bill breaks down UCLA’s program and gives us the lay of the land, telling us what his colleagues look for in applications and what degrees and specializations UCLA offers. A very informative episode! Tune in! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
