The 2016 Cinema Touch Awards - CINEMATOGRAPHY

by

Julien Faddoul

5. Kubo and the Two Strings – Frank Passingham

For action set-pieces that move so vividly they are emotionally overwhelming.

4. Arrival – Bradford Young

For his exquisite rendering and lighting.

3. Moonlight – James Laxton

For a bold minimalism. Those blues and oranges will stick with you, trust me.

2. Jackie – Stéphane Fontaine

For mastering the art of stark lighting and swirling hand-held. It's a brilliant decision both on he and Larrain's part to convey Jackie's grief at such a personal vantagepoint.

1. Hail, Caesar! – Roger Deakins

For recreations of the cinema of the time that are flawless.

Runner Up: The Love Witch – M. David Mullen
