At the 2020 virtual Camerimage festival, ARRI hosted an online discussion with cinematographer Roger Deakins and his collaborator James Deakins. Stephan Ukas-Bradley from ARRI in Los Angeles, who has helped support the Deakinses over many years and projects, covered topics such as the “Team Deakins” podcast, collaborations with different directors, creative processes, and the impact of technology developments.

ARRI established the  Volker Bahnemann Award for Outstanding Cinematography to inspire future generations of cinematographers. Congratulations to this year’s winners: Alfonso Herrera Salcedo Serrano and Stefan Nachmann. 

The Golden Frog went to Chloe Zhao for Nomadland  who directed, wrote, coproduced, and edited the film.

Director Matteo Garrone and DP Nicolai Brüel shot the film on ARRI ALEXA Mini.
