After watching the film 'No Country For Old Men' again, I decided I wanted to find out who does all their 'Cinematography' work. Going through all the credits I stumbled across a guy called 'Roger Deakins' who infact has done all of Coen Brothers cinematography work apart from 'Burn After Reading' where they employed 'Emmanuel Lubezki'. Roger Deakins was born 24th May 1949 in Torquay, Devon and attended Torquay Boys Grammer School. He later enrolled at Bath school of Art and Design where he studied Graphic Design but soon developed a huge love for still imagery. He then decided to have a change in study path and got transfered to the National Film and Television school in England. Not Long after Roger Deakins finished education he jumped straight into a job working as a cameraman and assisting in the production of documentaires for around seven years. His life is pretty much self explanatory from there on, still working in and around films mostly known for being the photography director.
