Masanobu Takayanagi (Warrior, The Grey, Out Of The Furnace, Silver Linings Playbook)

[EMMANUEL DELPECH]

I'm a huge fan of his work and am frustrated not to find any lengthy or interesting interviews of him and his approach. I watched all making ofs and b-rolls that I could find, but they practically never touch on the cinematography aspect. It seems to me like he uses mainly natural lighting, or uses practicals to light the scene.

I wonder if anybody on this forum knows him personally or would know his process better, I wonder if he uses diffusion filters or else, and would like to know his personal approach on lighting, etc.
