Cinematography Has More Than Five C's (with guest Eric Oh)

On this installment of The PAPER STREET Podcast, Becky and Shawn chat with veteran Director of Photography Eric Oh about his background, career, and all things cinematography: what it is, what it isn't, and why it's more than just knowing the technical aspects. Some folks may have heard of The Five C's of Cinematography (Camera angles, Continuity, Cutting, Close-ups, and Composition), but Eric suggests a few additional C's that are equally important to a DP's success: Collaboration, Compassion, and Communication. The hosts also talk with their globe-trotting guest about filming around the world, shooting during the pandemic, and some of his upcoming features, including recent Fantasia Festival selections THE FIGHT MACHINE and THE BREACH, as well as Paper Street Pictures' horror-comedy SORRY ABOUT THE DEMON. Plus, a fun round of 'Rapid Fire 15' with Eric, Becky's Deep Cut Slasher of the Week, THE SOUND OF MUSIC, the chiaroscuro of Caravaggio, the tastes of Toronto, and more!
