Thank you for checking us out and joining the “League of Hustle” the listeners of this show, that is now 25,000 strong and growing!!  Make sure to leave us a review and comment on Apple Podcasts and/or Stitcher and share this show with other amazing hustlers in your life so that we can continue to grow this community!  “A Cinematographer is a visual psychiatrist, moving an audience...making them think the way you want them to think, painting pictures in the dark.”  This quote easily applies to our guest today, who helps create worlds in ways that bring a certain feeling and tone to their audience, the cinematographer or DP of shows like Riverdale and Katy Keene on the CW, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina on Netflix and the most recent reboot film Child’s Play, we’re talking about Brendan Uegama.   We were lucky enough to meet Brendan when we interviewed Actress and Director Nicole G Leier and he agreed to come on the show.  After traveling in Canada and New York we finally were able to sit down and chat.  Brendan discusses his journey into cinematography,  the skills that are a must to be successful, how to collaborate with a revolving door of directors for a series, while keeping the tone and look for the show consistent overall and protecting the work of the actors.  He shares how he has adapted to and approached each project a bit differently and what it was like to take on a horror classic like Child’s Play and a horror icon like Chucky. Brendan shares so much knowledge about a side of  production that is seldom heard from, minus an awards speech here and there.  We were incredibly excited to sit down with Brendan and learn more about how Cinematographers approach their work and move from project to project, world to world.  This is a unique look into an important art form so let’s get to it ….
