AND THE WINNER WAS…?

Congratulations to Lol Crawley BSC on his Oscar, BAFTA and BSC wins during the 2025 awards season for his work on The Brutalist. We’re equally elated for Ed Lachman ASC, and his ASC win for Maria.

What’s also truly-thrilling was the quiet triumph of KODAK, especially at this year’s Academy Awards. Along with Lol’s Best Cinematography gong for The Brutalist, Anora (DP Drew Daniels), the winner for Best Picture, I’m Still Here (Adrian Teijido ABC), which
earned Best International Feature Film, and I’m Not A Robot (DP Martijn Van Broekhuizen NSC), this year’s Best Live Action Short, were all variously captured on KODAK film. So too Maria!

These visually-distinctive movies were produced on small budgets, which is testimony that shooting on film can be realised for less than you might think. With the right story, if you can be equally discerning, creative and daring in your aesthetic choices, you might be a future winner too!

Stay safe. See you again soon!
