Mike Farino is a talented cinematographer with a wide range of work filmed all over the world. For Mike the story always dictates the style and his ingenuity with equipment and broad knowledge of lighting help him craft a unique look for each project that he’s brought on to film.
For Mike, being a cinematographer is more than just filming with a camera, it’s the ability to use the camera and lighting to capture the subtext of what the story is telling the audience. Doing all this while collaborating with other departments to achieve a final frame that will immerse the viewer within the world you’ve created. When all of that aligns thats when you get cinema gold.
