I am very touched by your support and your interest for my work.
We have just begun the shooting strictly speaking in the best of the atmospheres. It is a pleasure

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Awesome. He's really good. Defiance was a brilliant movie. So was Blood Diamond. All of the movies he's done are pretty dramatic and action packed so it's great that they got a cinematographer who's experience in that because Deathly Hallows is DEFINITELY action-packed, suspenseful, dramatic, scary (that part with the snake and bathilda still scares the crap out of me)!

WB has gotten many well respected DOP's for the films. They've all done a wonderful job, but I have to say, Eduardo Serra will have one tough act to follow after Bruno Delbonell's brilliant work as the DOP for HBP. But Serra is an excellent choice.

I also have to add that the director tells the Director of Photography what he wants, so when you see HBP and praise it's cinematography, remember David Yates had a hand in it too. And he was always great with cinematography. Even in his T.V. films. Eduardo Serra will do a beautiful job in DH.
