Adam Kimmel DP on set with Colin Quinn: Red State Blue State Balancing the visual and creative aspirations with the logistical and financial limitations are some of the most difficult challenges that Directors of Photography (DPs) have faced throughout their careers. The conflict between saving the production money or looking for the best way to capture the desired image and the choices made can often feel like they are compromising one or the other. Part of what defines a successful DP is how they respond to these challenges, how they use their experience and the resources at their disposal to overcome these obstacles without significant compromises made to either end. This was one of the primary topics discussed during Kimmel's visit at the NAB Show, as the conversation focused on how he and other guests have utilized DITs throughout their careers. They also discussed the role they have played in the success of any given project. While most agreed that a DIT's presence on set is valuable, Kimmel took a slightly different approach to the topic, pointing out one specific instance where that did not necessarily agree with other DPS. On a feature film he shot in Atlanta, the production had a shortlist of local DITs available when Kimmel came on board. After assessing the creative and financial challenges of the film, Kimmel opted not to work with a DIT at all and to do the work in-camera and with lighting that allowed him to get the look he wanted while saving resources that were much needed for other areas of the camera department. www.pressadvantage.com/story/34506-adam-kimmel-cinematogr... https://flic.kr/p/2izFUdH
