The American Society of Cinematographers has revealed the film and TV nominees for its 33rd annual ASC Awards, set for February 9 at the Ray Dolby Ballroom at Hollywood & Highland.
The marquee Theatrical Release prize certainly is an international contest, with the five nominees all hailing from different countries: Mexico’s Alfonso Cuarón for Roma, American Matthew Libatique for A Star is Born, Irishman Robbie Ryan for The Favourite, Linus Sandgren of Sweden for First Man and Poland’s Łukasz Żal for Cold War.
It’s the same story for the Spotlight Award, which recognizes cinematography in smaller features that might not receive wider theatrical release or awareness. Vying for that prize are Briton Joshua James Richards (The Rider), Georgian Giorgi Shvelidze (Namme) and Frank van den Eeden of the Netherlands (Girl).
Check out the TV nominees below.
The ASC said last month that Robert Richardson will receive its ASC Lifetime Achievement Award and Jeff Jur is set for the Career Achievement in Television Award. The 2019 trophy also will celebrate the group’s 100th anniversary.
