Watch: Every Best Cinematography Oscar Winner Ever
The technology of cinematography has come a long way since 1927, the inaugural Oscars ceremony, which awarded Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans the Academy Award for Best Cinematography. F.W. Murnau's German Expressionist film is notable for its distorted art direction and groundbreaking cinematography by Charles Rosher and Karl Struss, featuring visually-striking tracking shots and forced perspective. Last year's Best Cinematography winner, The Revenant, was the first film shot on the ALEXA 65; the camera's 65mm digital sensor lent the footage a filmic look and enabled cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki to shoot using mostly natural light.
But while technology can certainly bolster a film's aesthetic, cameras are ultimately tools—they are only as strong as the humans behind them. This fact has never been more clear than in an exquisite new video by Burger Fiction that showcases the Best Cinematography winners throughout Oscar history. Though the movies featured in the supercut traverse nearly the entire history of cinema camera innovation, artistry remains impervious to time; some of the greatest aesthetic achievements in cinematography belong to films of another era.
Here's the complete list of Best Cinematography Oscar winners from 1927 to 2016:
We know, we hear from Apple-heads all the time about how iPhones are the best and only smartphone brand in the world and that texting with your non-iMessage friends is the worst. We’ve also heard from all the Android users in the world pining about how iPhones dominate both news coverage and usually get the more creator-focused apps and features first—or sometimes exclusively.
To make everyone happy now, Blackmagic Design has let us know at NAB 2024 that they’re finally rolling out an Android version of their popular Camera app. Here’s what you need to know.
Blackmagic Camera App for Android
Speaking with folks from the Blackmagic Design team at NAB 2024, they certainly had quite a bit of news to share with the world this year. From their new URSA Cine 12K to the new box-style PYXIS 6K, to a whole suite of new updates coming to DaVinci Resolve 19, they’ve had a lot of news to cover.
However, perhaps just missed in the mix, Blackmagic has also shared that Blackmagic Camera will be available on Android here soon. Like the iPhone version, it’ll be free and should be available on Blackmagic Design’s website here soon.
