Camerimage history is made primarily by eminent artists, the true masters of camera and light that shape the essence of our festival. We are deeply saddened to hear about the passing of one of the greatest \u2013 Michael Ballhaus, the 2010 Camerimage Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, our long-time friend and supporter.<\/strong><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n
Michael Ballhaus<\/strong>\u00a0was born in Berlin in 1935. He was well known for his stunning camerawork for such directors as\u00a0Rainer Werner Fassbinder<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cThe Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant\u201d, \u201cThe Marriage of Maria Braun\u201d, \u201cMartha\u201d<\/em><\/span>),\u00a0Mike Nichols<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cWorking Girl\u201d, \u201cPostcards from the Edge\u201d<\/em><\/span>),\u00a0Francis Ford Coppola<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cBram Stoker\u2019s Dracula\u201d<\/em><\/span>) or\u00a0Volker Schl\u00f6ndorff<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cDeath of a Salesman\u201d<\/span><\/em>). His long-term collaboration with\u00a0Martin Scorsese<\/strong>\u00a0gave us the wonderful\u00a0\u201cAfter Hours\u201d, \u201cThe Age of Innocence\u201d, \u201cGoodfellas\u201d, \u201cGangs of New York\u201d<\/em><\/span>, and\u00a0\u201cThe Departed\u201d<\/em><\/span>. Michael was also known for his photography in music videos for\u00a0Bruce Springsteen<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Madonna<\/strong>. He was nominated for three Academy Awards and BAFTAs, and was the first German cinematographer to receive the American Society of Cinematographers\u2019 International Award.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Michael Ballhaus<\/strong>\u2019s contribution to the art of cinematography was truly outstanding. His ideas and filmmaking methods, the innovative ways of framing and lighting the set, influenced motion picture photographers around the world. He will go down in history as the creator of the legendary 360-degree tracking shot first used in\u00a0Fassbinder<\/strong>\u2019s\u00a0\u201cMartha\u201d<\/em><\/span>. Together with\u00a0Rainer Werner Fassbinder<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Volker Schl\u00f6ndorff<\/strong>, he helped to build the so-called New German Cinema and later on became highly successful in the United States.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
His passing is a great loss for the cinema world. We will miss you dearly, Michael!<\/div>\n
