Bros before Hos

The third film from director’s duo Steffen & Flip. And for me, in a way, my coming of age as a d.o.p. Totally different in style than the first two features we did, this one is about the typical romantic comedy, but for boys. So nice to be able to try all the genre conventions and turn them into your own style. Creating that, together with production designer Elza Kroonenberg and my longtime gaffer Eugene Sprik was the best. After this one,  it was a whole lot easier to leave the rulebook behind and go on instinct. On top of that, this film was my first encounter with the color Yellow in light and I’ve been intrigued by it ever since. it can add so much meaning to a scene and i’m still learning from it.
