I would like to start off by thanking everyone for your wonderful comments and support on the BLOG, for we gratefully appreciate the feedback.
The Director of Photography plays a huge role in capturing the visual reality of the story a director is trying to tell. Michael LaVoie was a great collaborator and huge asset to this production. Here is his “take”.
A Cinematic Eye
It’s always a big responsibility when you have to accurately represent someone’s vision on the screen, but even more so when it’s a script that they feel very strongly about. Shooting in NY is rough but you find locations that are hard to come by in other cities. We got some great spots and it all came together. I usually advise against weekend shooting but when you’re wrestling with NY, the calm of the weekend can become your ticket to getting in and out fast and easy and that was the case on this film. “It’s Me, Matthew!” is an intimate story of love, loss, and transformation and I was glad to be a part of bringing those difficult themes to the screen visually.
