Next Wednesday, in a new episode of the Team Deakins Podcast, we speak with director Fernando Meirelles (THE TWO POPES, BLINDNESS, CITY OF GOD). Despite growing up with a filmmaking-loving father, it wasn’t until Fernando graduated from architecture school, smuggled film equipment into Brazil, produced television and commercials through a video production company, and met cinematographer César Charlone (Season 2, Episode 174) that he finally directed his first feature. Throughout the episode, we discuss the making of CITY OF GOD, Fernando’s career since the film’s release, and how he likes to work during production.⁠ ⁠ Hear more next week!⁠ -⁠ Recommended Viewing: CITY OF GOD⁠ -⁠ Photo Credit: Josh Telles⁠ -⁠ #teamdeakins #rogerdeakins #rogeradeakins #sirRoger #bywaysBook #reflectionsBook #reflections #jamesellisdeakins #teamdeakinspodcast #fernandoMeirelles #director #directing #stillPhotography #visualarts⁠
