Quick Chat: Dictionary Films director/DP Michael Ognisanti
Q: You recently joined the roster of Dictionary Films. Can you talk about that and why you made the move? A: I’ve always loved the idea of merging the production and post worlds closer together. One of my first jobs out of college was as a videographer for a local news station. Between the reporter and myself, we would write, shoot and edit pieces daily. Being that close to the whole process of putting a project together was important to me. That is what I’ve found at Dictionary and Cutters Studios. Editing, effects, graphics, it’s all under one roof so those channels of communication are more available. I can feel more connected to the project and give my input along the way. I’m sure the editors will love that (smile)...
