On the latest Dolby Creator Podcast, Academy Award-nominated cinematographer Darius Khondji discusses his work on “Marty Supreme.”
In the episode, Khondji talks about his visual approach with director Josh Safdie, from shooting on film with classic anamorphic lenses and expressive close-ups to building a richly textured 1950s world through production design, lighting, and color. Khondji states that anamorphic can be very minimal, but the important thing is the way it renders close-ups; it makes people bigger than life, as black and white does. He goes on to say that he wanted to create a feeling of the old classic anamorphic of the fifties.
“Marty Supreme” is now available for at-home purchase or rental, as well as in select theaters, in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. https://a24films.com/films/marty-supreme
