This podcast features Director of Photography Elie Smolkin CSC in conversation with Carolyn Wong of the CSC.

Elie’s formative years in sports came to the fore when an elective gym course in high school was full and anded into a TV Production course where his love for cinematography was born. This led to meeting Kamal Derkaoui csc who generously mentored him. Elie loves the balance of technical, creative - the personality of lenses and customizing them for projects. Words of wisdom: Have your basics, try things, take risks when confident and don’t get complacent or let yourself get bored.
