Breaking Bad POV

Michael Slovis, ASC is behind the lens at the enormously popular and critically acclaimed AMC show Breaking Bad where he's shot four seasons and earned three Emmy nominations. Although his early work was in independent film in New York, Slovis has had a long, successful run in episodic TV including work on Fringe, 30-Rock, and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation for which he won an Emmy, among many others.

"There is a feeling of intentionality when you shoot film, at least for TV, that this is what the director wants you to see," says Michael. "In video or digital, you can turn your camera operators loose to shoot the scene and evaluate it later. For Breaking Bad, it's all about that methodical, intentional feel, and that texture is very important. This is something I feel strongly about, that the trust that you give us on the set and especially to Vince will not be betrayed."

Michael also speaks about shooting 11,000 feet of film a day, the post grading and finishing process, the amazing storytelling being done on TV these days -- and how his long journey on Breaking Bad began with him telling them he wasn't interested in taking the job.
