Paul Nordin has been signed on as Cinematographer for director, Sam Hancock’s, sophomore feature film “August Falls”. The murder/suspense genre film, co-written by Hancock, is scheduled to go into production July 2014. “I was lucky to shoot Sam’s first feature, ‘Being Us’, and am really thrilled Sam has asked me to join him for his next film. Sam and I have a great short-hand and we trust each other’s creative and story telling sensibilities.” said Paul. This will be Paul Nordin’s 20 film as Cinematographer.

“Interesting is Paul Nordin’s cinematography. On the one hand, dark and gritty but with a digital polish and crisp sharpness. The dichotomy between the clean visual texture and the subject matter creates a palpable uncomfortableness that allows for the emotional tapestry to come to the forefront. Similarly, the contrast in lighting after Margaret has had a particularly dark episode to then come out into the world the next day to harsh, overlit brightness, shocks the senses, making US a full sensory experience.”
