Working to someone else's brief can ignite creativity through its restriction. The natural boundaries placed on photographers shooting on film sets can sometimes facilitate an unexplored direction for a photographer's own work and a plethora of new ideas. And the collaboration, or lack of collaboration, between a director and a photographer can either hinder or help that process. What the photographer chooses to focus on, and whether that focus is in line with the director's vision or opposed in style and tone to the filmmaker, will also determine its outcome.
Portfolios include the work of Robby Müller, Jack Davison, Parisa Taghizadeh, Agata Grzybowska, Gregory Crewdson, Yorgos Lanthimos, Daniel Arnold, John Waters, Donata Wenders, Bryan Schutmaat, John Hilcoat, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Pieter Hugo, and Casper Sejersen, alongside an extended Q&A. The Crude Metaphors section features writing by David Campany inspired by the photographs of Robert Cumming. Plus reviews of four newly released photo books.
