Executive Producer Jason Banke comments, “Each year we strive to bring the most talented and innovative artists to the New York community of filmmakers and DP’s.  We are incredibly excited to host these conversations with such an amazing group of cinematographers.”  Banke adds, “We wouldn’t be able to throw this year-end educational event without the support of our generous partners.”
