I think all cinematographers, at least most of them, would love to do everything on location because you cannot cheat on location. It's there, it's part of the story usually. You have to deal with the elements. You have the sunshine, you have rain, you have fog - it really makes you work harder to try to match things during the day to make it look like it was shot within five minutes, movie time.
Vilmos ZsigmondThere are many, many different kinds of movies and directors and styles. I don't mind that a movie looks like a movie.
Vilmos ZsigmondEach story has a different approach for me and I try to work with lighting that will tell you visually the story better than if it was shot in available light.
Vilmos ZsigmondI like to work with talented people, I must say that. That's my weakness. I really like to work with good directors. That doesn't mean I don't like to work with starting up young directors, that's fun also.
