Life Check: 

Ashley O’Shay returns a Sinner!!! This week we’re talking about Autumn Durald Arkapaw’s recent historic Oscar win as the first woman to win an oscar for best cinematography. We get into what that means for all of us and some predictions Ashley has as a cinematographer in the industry. 

Ashley will definitely be back once her film, Southmont Drive is out, but we did get a lil gem that it will be releasing with PBS in 2027!!! Absolutely cannot wait to get into this piece of work!

Gear Don’t Matter But: 

• Sigma art 18-35mm 1.4  technically a still lens but she uses it cinematically

• Honorable mention: Holga 120 toy cam

  
  

🖤PLC Playlist🖤:
