The director of photography for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Greig Fraser, has won the Academy Award for his work on Dune. He also worked on three episodes of The Mandalorian, chapters 1, 3 and 7.
Greig Fraser’s lensing of Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi epic Dune won the busy DP, whose latest work can be seen in Matt Reeves’ The Batman, the Oscar in cinematography.
Accepting the award, Fraser thanked “Master Denis” and the team including production designer Patrice Vermette, who also won an Oscar on Sunday, and his crew. Fraser also thanked his wife, Jodie, and kids for “allowing a middle-aged man to go out and play with his friends in the sand dunes for six months.”
Congratulations to Greig from everyone at Fantha Tracks.
