ALT Members Event. Directors UK x British Society of Cinematographers: Jim Field Smith and Ed Moore on Hijack Networking Drinks
Our beloved #RedDwarf Lighting Designer John Pomfhrey has passed away. What an amazing human being. To watch him and 'The New Guy' @edmoore ('Bucky') exchanging stories was a treat. Everyone had mad respect for him. The way he went beyond the COD (& Zero Budget) was Genius! RIP🚀
Striking in this clip how after however many years of Tommy Schlamme steadicam oners from TWW, Brad Whitford noticeably times his dialogue to better fit when he's in frame than Matthew Perry (RIP!)

This morning I spoke to the Commons Culture Media & Sport Comittee about the difficulties actors & creative freelancers are facing in the uk. I asked for their support to secure statutory payments for film & television work that we are losing out on post-Brexit @BECS_Performers
simply put, it was added to the SMPTE spec because it acts like a superset for both 4:3 TV shows, 1.85 and 2.39 movies
here’s a derivation if you’re interested
I froze for a moment, confused, then started swimming. At some point I turned around to see that seaweed had returned, except it wasn't seaweed. They were garden eels.
Make me a horror film about garden eels this memory haunts me
People give sharks too much credit. Once I went solo diving in the Maldives. I jumped off the boat and looked down to see a huge amount of seaweed 90ft down.
I slowly let myself sink to the bottom and then look around. There was nothing, no seaweed just white sand all around.
"It’s important to have characters with heart. Otherwise, you've got nowhere to go emotionally." #Hijack co-creators George Kay and Jim Field Smith spoke with our @nicolemichele5 about crafting the Apple TV show's incredibly stressful, suspenseful ride: trib.al/DX597eC
Right now our industry is at a crisis point. It’s not just the striking actors and writers, it’s our talented technicians and world-class facilities all of which contribute so much to everyone’s entertainment and of course to the economy, which are suffering.
Here’s one of my favourite frames from #HIJACK, which sums up how I feel as the last ep drops. Bowled over by the reactions and love from all around the globe. Thank you for watching, and sorry about your fingernails and your weekly waits.
