Academy Award-winner Autumn Durald Arkapaw ASC on why great cinematography starts with the crew.

From managing complex formats to preparing every tool in advance, she explains how her team makes it possible for director Ryan Coogler (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Sinners) to move freely — whether that means going handheld, Steadicam, or crane in the moment.

For Durald Arkapaw, the goal is simple: never limit the director, and always be ready to capture the emotional truth of a scene.
