BONUS - "A Tale of Two Ryans: The Art of Picking a DP"

October 08, 2015

Today we have a very special bonus episode of the show. A couple of weeks ago we had Ryan Connolly of Film Riot fame talking about the disasters he encountered making his short film “U.F. Oh Yeah.” Ryan's DP on that shoot was the talented Mr. Ryan Booth. Ryan Booth is the creator of Serialbox.tv, a cinematic sensation whereby Booth and his team record one-take acoustical performances of indie bands, shoot them with multiple cameras, and edit it music video style. If you’ve never seen them, go check ‘em out at Serialbox.tv.
But here’s the thing, Ryan Booth’s style of cinematography is very different from the type of work Ryan Connolly usually puts out. I was curious as to why Connolly chose Booth to DP this film. In today’s bonus episode we hear from both of them regarding that decision.
