KH,
When I pitch stories to PR folks, they seem to still place a higher premium on print content when deciding whether to grant an interview request, even though an online story would seemingly have a much longer shelf life. I have a digital only subscription to ASC Mag so when I do a story for them I at least know I'll get to download a PDF of the story. I get PDFs of ICG Magazine as well as a member of 600. So while I don't have physical copies of a lot of my print pieces, I do have PDFs of most of them. Might be something to ask for in the future - seems like I get a better follow-through ratio when asking for PDFs as opposed to getting an outlet to ship me a mag I have a story in.
Cheers,
Matt

Kim,
A handful of them have run in the print version of Filmmaker Magazine, but most are online only.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks Miguel! Appreciate it.

Daniel,
There is audio of the interviews just for transcription purposes, but they're all phone interviews so there's not really a usable audio or video component. So sorry, just text.
Thanks,
Matt

Like the title says, I've reached 100 entries in the interview column I write for Filmmaker Magazine, which seemed like a good time to share the link on here again. The last few months have featured talks with Matthew Libatique (A Star is Born), Sean Porter (Green Book), Joe Anderson (Old Man and the Gun), Linus Sandgren (First Man), and Michael Simmonds (Halloween).
In the new two weeks I'll have new interviews with Lukasz Zal (Cold War), Sean Bobbitt (Widows), Robbie Ryan (The Favourite), James Laxton (If Beale Street Could Talk), and Greg Gardiner (Elf).

Wanted to share these interviews I did recently for Filmmaker Magazine - one with Roger Deakins about Blade Runner 2049 and the other with gaffer-turned-dp Erik Messerschmidt about his work on the Netflix series Mindhunter.

Wanted to share this interview I did with Greig Fraser for Filmmaker Magazine about his work on Lion and Rogue One. Lion was shot on the Alexa XT M (at least the India-lensed portion) with Panavision PVintage lenses. The Star Wars prequel is the first movie shot entirely on the Alexa 65 and used some of the same Panavision Ultra 70 lenses employed on The Hateful Eight. He also talks about using Digital Sputnik LEDs extensively on both films.

Wanted to share this interview I did with Roger Deakins for Filmmaker Magazine.
I've been writing a weekly interview column for them - weighted toward cinematographers - if anyone's interested in checking it out.

Put together this interview with Gone Girl DP Jeff Cronenweth for my blog. He breaks down his thinking behind a half-dozen shots from Gone Girl, talks about the Dragon compared to the Epic and reflects on spending time as a kid on the set of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Here's the link if anyone's interested.

Thanks for checking out the interviews, Stephen. Love your blog as well. Those "personal document studies" detailing the work of individual DPs are incredible.

Five new entries in my series of DP interviews, with more on the way. There's a link for each below.
Short Term 12, shot on Red Epic

An interview I conducted for my blog with cinematographer Seamus Tierney about his work on the film In a World. Shot on RED Epic with Hawk C-series anamorphic lenses. Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out - http://bit.ly/1f7temj.

Just posted an interview with cinematographer Hillary Spera about her film Black Rock on my blog, Deep Fried Movies.
The movie is in the vein of a gender-reversed Deliverance and stars Lake Bell (In a World), Katie Aselton (The League) and Kate Bosworth. It was shot on a remote island in Maine on an Arri Alexa.
The interview includes Spera breaking down the decision making process behind several individual frames from the movie.

I recently put up an interview with the cinematographer of the horror film You're Next - Andrew Palermo - on my blog Deep Fried Movies. The movie - which is still in theaters - was shot on a Red One MX with Zeiss Ultra Primes back in the early months of 2011.
It's not an American Cinematographer Magazine-level of technical detail, but I thinks its specific enough about the craft that some of you folks might find it worthwhile. There aren't really that many sources for DP interviews out there and I'm hoping to add many more to the blog. Check it out here.

Thanks for sharing this. I need to track a lot of these down. I've only seen 62 and have huge gaps in the 1930s and 1960s. I have watched all the winners since 1986 except Pan's Labyrinth and Life of Pi.
