American Cinematographer - July 2013 - 61

Hunter shoots a
pool scene with
the camera
protected in a
Plexiglas case.

Panavision Hollywood provided
the camera gear. “Rik DeLisle helped
us tremendously,” notes Hunter. “I
think we had every Primo prime in
existence, but we tended to stick with
the 21mm, 27mm, 35mm and 50mm.
Our classic close-up lens was the
100mm, and we used that quite a bit,
but whenever we could get away with
it, I’d push for the 150mm, especially on
the B camera.”
C-camera operators Mick
Froehlich and Adam Tash took turns
shooting with the Canon. There was no
monitor for it, but Hunter “had implicit
trust in those guys that the exposure
and focus would be fine.” Hunter tried
to maintain a stop between f2.8 and f4.
“We could only afford one Preston
Remote Focus,” he notes. “My first AC,
Clint Kasparian, is my brother-inarms. And B-camera first AC Vessie
Kazachka did a great job with no
remote.”
In general, Hunter captured
wider shots, while Valentine focused on
close-ups. An early scene in the film
finds Hero and her maid, Margaret
(Ashley Johnson), standing in the

kitchen discussing Benedick’s crush on
Beatrice. It’s all part of their matchmaking ruse; they know Beatrice is about to
enter the room and will hear their
conversation. In a long oner, the camera
leads Beatrice, who enters on the other
side of the room and abruptly turns to
go down the stairs. When she hears her
name mentioned, she tumbles headfirst
down the steps. Hunter crouched down

as Beatrice’s head popped up from the
stairs, and he paralleled her as she
crawled up the stairs and sneaked into
the kitchen to eavesdrop from underneath a counter. The camera remains on
a medium wide of Beatrice as she
listens. The other women’s legs protrude
under the counter.
“I shot that by putting the camera
on a furniture pad and sliding it along
