With Life Of Pi cinematographer Claudio Miranda aboard
Things are reportedly changing both in front of and behind the camera for the third outing of the rebooted Star Trek cinematic universe. With Roberto Orci seemingly locked in place, Trekmovie’s sources have heard that he’s hired respected cinematographer Claudio Miranda to work on the new film, with the pair planning to shoot digitally.
That’s a marked change from both the 2009 film and last year’s Into Darkness, which were both shot on film thanks to J.J. Abrams’ preferences. Still, Miranda is a smart choice for anyone looking to get the best out of digital photography – he won the cinematography Oscar for Life Of Pi and worked on Tron Legacy and The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button.
It’s perhaps not surprising that Orci would want to bring in fresh faces, but it’s also a factor of Abrams taking many of his key team members to work on Star Wars: Episode VII. Another change is the shooting locales. While Abrams for the most part stayed in California, Orci is instead looking to shoot in Vancouver for the majority of the film, with some additional work in Seoul, South Korea. Production is reportedly set to gear up in February ready for a 2016 release date…
