In this new podcast, we spoke at length with the legendary Daniel Pearl, ASC. Mr. Pearl is the artist who nearly fifty years ago (in 1973) shot his first feature film, the masterpiece “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” — which changed the face of horror cinema forever. In the years that followed, Daniel also pioneered the music video genre — lensing videos for artists including The Police, U2, Billy Idol, Duran Duran, Guns N’ Roses, Van Halen, Michael Jackson, and Bruce Springsteen. In our talk, we learn about his early days and unique path to becoming a prolific, award-winning Director of Photography. Enjoy hearing from the master himself…
