American Cinematographer - October 2014 - 32

While charting
her attempts to
reinvigorate her
acting career,
the film also
documents
Burre's
mounting
identity crisis
and crumbling
relationship with
her husband.

you accept that the entire concept of a
documentary is a staged construct, then
maybe the best thing is to re-enact something in order to tell the emotional truth
more clearly so that the audience understands something deeper. Imagine if I had
shot that scene live from behind the bushes;
that might be truer factually and observationally, but it would be completely untrue
emotionally, because the point of that
moment is for her to be transported into
another place that is in direct contrast with

the rest of her life. So here, the emotional
truth is truer. That's why I bristle a little at
the idea that there is manipulation in the
negative connotation of that word. Obviously there is manipulation - my job is to
tell the story, and therefore manipulate.
What sort of camera rig were
you using?
Greene: It was very simple. I fell in
love with the Panasonic AG-DVX100B, a
MiniDV camera that I can't get enough of.
I've shot everything I've ever made on it,

and I want to keep shooting on it until the
thing falls apart. To me, that camera has a
very specific expressive quality that is warm
and loving in a unique way. The slow
motion and wider landscapes were shot
with the Panasonic AG-HPX170, which is
basically the HD version of the DVX100 [and
records to P2 Cards]. For sound, I had a
shotgun microphone mounted on the
camera and a wireless lavalier.
Do you have the camera's image
settings configured a certain way?
Greene: Having used [the
DVX100B] for so long, the settings are all
very specific. I like deeper blacks and more
contrast. I did very little color correcting
because I get the look I'm really after incamera, which is satisfying and also saves a
lot of money.
What did cinematographer Sean
Price Williams' work entail on Actress?
Greene: Sean is a very good friend,
and he shot Kati With an I and most of Fake
It So Real. He has an eye for beauty, and I've
always felt like I have depended on him, but
with Actress' schedule, I couldn't. A long
