Cinematography:
Linus Sandgren is a Swedish cinematographer who has worked on many films such as ‘La La Land’ and ‘No Time To Die’. He’s best known for his work with director Damien Chazelle, having won a handful of Grammy’s due to his incredible work on ‘La La Land’.
Sandgren’s work on ‘La La Land’ uses a variety of different lights, often using contrasting colours in order to enhance what’s happening on screen. “If you don’t have a contrasting colour, you can get a little too muddy with smaller lights or practical’s. Cyan’s kind of nice to counter with some reds, for instance”. He did research into what the director wanted before choosing a camera to help achieve the saturation and old Hollywood style that the director wanted. Sandgren also made sure to make everything as realistic as possible, filming most of the film in real locations rather than using a green screen,
