🌟 HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY SUSANNE SALAVATI WHO HAS BEEN LISTED AS A SCREEN STAR OF TOMORROW 2022 🌟
“Salavati says the time she spent in non-fiction “had a huge influence on my work. It’s a privileged situation where I get to experience other people’s lives, but it’s also very changeable and demanding. So it taught me to push myself.”
“That proved particularly helpful on Then Barbara Met Alan, a BBC feature based on the true story of disabled artist activists Barbara Lisicki and Alan Holdsworth, scripted by Jack Thorne and 2021 Star of Tomorrow Genevieve Barr. “It was about thinking logistically and creatively about the best way to capture the world of disability, to show their perspective,” says Salavati. “Barbara and Alan were driven by punk and anarchy, so there was a lot of energy, a lot of movement. It became clear that using a tracking dolly was going to be obstructive, and not in the spirit of the film. We used Steadicam, which gave us the freedom to move around, and we ended up shooting on lots of different formats. You never quite know when you’re in archive or recreated footage, and I’m proud of that.”
