It is said that film is a director’s medium. That may be so. But without the skill and vision of a top-notch cinematographer, the director’s vision might never be realized.
Cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto burst onto the world film scene in 2000 with his eye-popping camera work on “Amores Perros.” His career soared with “Frida,” filmed in and around Mexico City, where his grandfather was once the mayor. In 2002, he worked with Curtis Hanson and the rapper Eminem on “8 Mile”; then with Spike Lee on the searing drama “25th Hour”; the following year on Alejandro González Iñárritu’s second installment of his Death Trilogy, the award-winning “21 Grams.”
Prieto was recognized for his work on Ang Lee’s nontraditional Western romance, “Brokeback Mountain,” for which he was nominated for an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award and an American Society of Cinematographers (Asc) Award.
