We Need to Talk About Emmy #15: The fever dream - like tragedy of ‘Lady in the Lake’

We Need to Talk About Oscar

For a few years now, Apple has been consistently building out its streaming platform with the help of great artists and prestigious projects. Their new release, Lady in the Lake is a limited series starring Natalie Portman and Moses Ingram. Áron had the pleasure of welcoming the show’s cinematographer Lachlan Milne, and production designer JC Molina to the show.
As Lady in the Lake takes place in 1960s Baltimore, there were plenty of topics to discuss about the visuals of the project. Having the cinematographer and the production designer on at the same time provided a great opportunity to dive into their collaboration and talk through how the teams and departments worked together to create this stunning period piece.
Lachland and JC were also kind enough to give us an insight into the research process, and even shared what emotional scenes were particularly hard to shoot or create for them.
(Plus they teased their upcoming projects: Michel Gondry’s Atlantis, and Mimi Cave’s Holland, Michigan.)
