Rodrigo Prieto AMC ASC receives Kodak Mentor award

Nov 5, 2016

DP Rodrigo Prieto AMC ASC (The Wolf Of Wall Street) received Kodak’s Cinematography Mentor of the Year award, at the recent International Cinematographers Guild (ICG) 2016 Emerging Cinematographer Awards, held at the ASC clubhouse in Hollywood.

Mexico-born Prieto came to the attention of Hollywood for his cinematography on Amores Perros for director Alejandro González Iñárritu. His other films include Frida, Brokeback Mountain, and Argo. His Silence, directed by Martin Scorsese, is set for release in January 2017.

In giving the award to Prieto, Kodak’s motion picture and entertainment president, Steve Bellamy, remarked that the imaging company had turned the financial corner, moving from “staggering losses to the black last year,” and that “the next generation of motion picture artists are seeking out film as their shooting medium of choice”.

Dolby Laboratories received the Canon Award for Advancement in Digital Technology, for research into high dynamic range (HDR) standards, and for developing Dolby Vision, a technology for professional displays and cinema projectors.
