Gordon Willis has died aged 82.
戈登威利斯日前去世,享年82歲。
The cinematographer served as director of photography for The Godfather, Annie Hall and Manhattan.
作為著名攝影師,他曾經(jīng)擔任影片《教父》《安妮·霍爾》和《曼哈頓》的攝影導演。
“This is a momentous loss,” American Society of Cinematographers President Richard Crudo told Deadline. “He was one of the giants who absolutely changed the way movies looked.”
“這是一個很大的損失,”美國電影攝影師協(xié)會主席Richard Crudo說道,“他是攝影界的巨匠之一,是他改變了電影的觀感。”
His style was characterised by his ability to use shadow and underexposed film, and his preference for filming just before twilight – when light is often warm and golden. Fellow cinematographer Conrad Hall consequently dubbed him the “Prince of Darkness”.
威利斯的風格在于他擅長運用陰影和降低電影曝光的能力,他偏愛的影片光感就是黃昏前的感覺——光線很溫暖,金黃。他的電影攝影技師Conrad Hall因此將他譽為“黑暗王子”。
Although is perhaps best known for his work on The Godfather, he most extensively worked with Allen – with whom he made eight films, including The Purple Rose of Cairo, Interiors, Stardust Memories and Broadway Danny Rose.
盡管他可能是因為《教父》這一影片而為人所熟知,他合作最多的伙伴就是Allen——他和Allen合拍了八部電影,包括《開羅紫玫瑰》《內(nèi)心深處》《星塵舊事》和《丹尼玫瑰》。
