American Cinematographer - May 2020 - 20
Young goes handheld while shooting the period drama Selma (2014), directed by Ava DuVernay. During
the production, "I found myself growing up, not only as a cinematographer, but as a human being," the
cinematographer told AC. "Selma helped me understand how important selflessness is." Of DuVernay
(above, with Young), he noted, "Ava is a maverick filmmaker, but she's very precise - she's not
interested in making experimental films."

American Cinematographer - 100 Years
concerns as everybody else.
Every time that I'm blessed to
roll a camera, or have someone roll a
camera for me, I don't take it for
granted. It all starts with a single
frame, and then 24 frames per second,
and I understand the implications of
that. I'm hoping that young people I
cross paths with - and my elders -
understand that I take every moment
seriously when we're constructing
these ideas and images.
Many aspiring cinematographers who have been able to meet
established professionals in the
field - and have a candid conversation - come back with a similar
impression: "I can't believe they
have the same problems I do." Do
you still face the same problems that
you did in the beginning?
Young: I think that goes back to
what I was saying about authenticity
- [and the related idea of] vulnerability. [Vulnerability is] the thing we
have to access in order to open up our
