How Jomo Fray’s Work With “Sentient Perspective” On Orion’s ‘Nickel Boys’ Changed His Point Of View On POV Filmmaking – The Process

As seen in Deadline:

Long drawn to filmmaking as an artistic medium cultivating “a radical form of empathy,” cinematographer Jomo Fray took that concept in an immersive new direction with Nickel Boys, the first narrative feature from Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker RaMell Ross.

The drama for Amazon MGM’s Orion Pictures, he explains, was an experiment with the concept of “sentient perspective,” where he and Ross would look to craft first-person images that captured “the feeling of sight and the feeling of memory, the feeling of moving through space.”
