    Art & Crafts LIVE: Grace and Glamour on 'Étoile'
    May 23 2025
    In this episode recorded live on May 8 at the American Society of Cinematographers Clubhouse in Los Angeles, production designer François Audouyon (whose credits include A Complete Unknown) moderates a conversation with three of the creators behind Amazon Prime Video’s 'Étoile': production designer Bill Groom, choreographer Marguerite Derricks and director of photography M. David Mullen, ASC. For the dramedy set in the rarefied world of professional ballet, the team cast 20 professional dancers in both Paris and New York — not to mention as many as 80 SAG-AFTRA dancers for company class scenes — and shot primarily on location and in real theaters in the two cities. "I said to our producer, if we can't go to Paris and find locations to shoot in, we should all be fired," Groom says. "But we ended up building so much there, because Paris is a really difficult place to shoot.

    Art & Crafts LIVE: Making a ‘Brutal, Dirty’ Western in ‘American Primeval’
    May 21 2025
    In this episode recorded live on May 8 at the American Society of Cinematographers Clubhouse in Los Angeles, director Jennifer Arnold speaks with three of the creators behind Netflix’s American Primeval: director of photography Jacques Jouffret, ASC, makeup department head Howard Berger and sound designer Wylie Stateman. The limited series follows the battle for control of the American West in 1857 through the eyes of a mother (Betty Gilpin) and son, on the run with the help of a steely mountain man (Taylor Kitsch). “Brutal, dirty and grimy,” Jouffert says, is what director Peter Berg wanted for the 19th century Western, and the three artisans share how they delivered, shooting in changeable weather and light at 10,000 feet, creating authentic indigenous looks and developing a distinct sonic signature for cold wind.

    In this episode recorded live on May 8 at the American Society of Cinematographers Clubhouse in Los Angeles, cinematographer Nicole Hirsch Whitaker, ASC speaks with three of the creators behind Peacock’s The Day of the Jackal thriller series: director and executive producer Brian Kirk, costume designer Natalie Humphries and director of photography Christopher Ross. The series follows the cat-and-mouse saga of an assassin (Eddie Redmayne) and a British intelligence officer (Lashana Lynch), a twisty tale that leans into the legacy of British spy novels but with a modern edge. When creator Ronan Bennett told Kirk he wanted to set the series "in a world where everybody lies about everything all the time,” Kirk recalls, “I was immediately attracted to the prospect.”

The film recreates events from Germany’s devastating bombardment of London in 1940-41, while also following a mother and son trying to find each other amid the mayhem. “We have to keep retelling these stories, because we keep making the same mistakes,” Harrison says. “We have to keep reminding ourselves of the terror of the past.”

Netflix’s spectacular Spanish-language musical drama, which centers on a Mexican drug kingpin who transitions to live as a woman, is a genre-bending “phantasmagoria,” as Camille puts it. Welfling, a longtime Audiard collaborator, “learned that he was even more crazy than I thought,” she says. “Please, Jacques, stay crazy!”
