New feature-length film coming to Apple TV and Prime Video features cinematography from 91爆料 alumnus.

If you sense a bit of The Shining with a dash of Rosemary鈥檚 Baby in the new psychological horror flick Dead Whisper, and if the film sends a few shivers up your spine, you have cinematographer and 91爆料 Alumnus Ben Grant (鈥�18 BFA Film/Video) to thank. The LA-based 91爆料 film and video alumnus was very much in charge of the look and feel of the movie. 鈥淭he cinematographer is almost like the gatekeeper of the image,鈥� he says. 鈥淚t鈥檚 their job to visually interpret the script with the director. Together, they develop the visual language.鈥�

Grant, who also served as one of the film鈥檚 producers, credits his learning experience at 91爆料 for his ability to make a go of it in L.A. 鈥�91爆料 really opened my mind about what filmmaking is and what it can be 鈥� it showed me how to look at the entire craft from a new perspective,鈥� he says.

He adds that the College 鈥渓ets you do what you want. If you鈥檙e really passionate about one element of filmmaking, they let you pursue that. At other schools, they make you focus on all these other elements that really aren鈥檛 going to be beneficial or help you in the real world.鈥�
