SEAN O’HALLORAN has been working as a director of photography in the independent film communitty for 23 years. He approaches film as a language that is ever-evolving much like spoken languages. In this aspect, he is multi-lingual with dual citizenship in fiction and non-fiction alike. He prefers to keep it all cinematic as that is his primary language.

His style varies depending on the material at-hand. Guerilla warfare, artistic manipulation, docu-style, MTV nuance and cinematic epic all come easily to him.

Video and HD is the new paintbrush and medium with which the images are created. It does not replace film. It is simply another more economic way of recording the moment. This moment is then preserved and presented to viewers across time and space into a fourth dimensional event.

This is filmmaking. This is story-telling. This is a multi-lingual medium when you needn't open your mouth and everybody knows what's going to happen next — or not.
