Though I have mixed feelings about Restless City, I have much respect for the film’s cinematographer, Bradford Young. Check him in out this video:
We use jazz…as a mantra on how we want to make films…the collective responsibility of how you cannot make jazz alone. And that is sort of what we are trying to bring to the table of filmmaking. – Bradford Young
How can I not have a crush? The analogies to Jazz. The focus on the idea of collaboration and community. The mentions of his inspiration. He’s talking about his work and never says “I”. Amazing.
