This year Cine Gear pays tribute to Academy Award®-winning cinematographer Claudio Miranda, ASC for Visionary Achievement in Cinematography. A pioneer in digital filmmaking, he embraces the latest technology to capture some of the big screen’s most groundbreaking imagery. He shot the first entirely digital feature, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button for which he earned Best Cinematography nominations from the Motion Picture Academy, BAFTA and the ASC. His use of enhanced environment LED technology gave life to ultra-real lighting and out-of-this-world vistas on Oblivion and Tomorrowland. Breathtaking visuals on Life of Pi garnered Miranda a 2013 Best Cinematography Oscar® and top accolades, worldwide.
Gold and Silver all-access passes for guaranteed priority seats at Premier seminars and Screenings may be purchased at http://www.cinegearexpo.com/la-expo-passes-and-tickets.
