TY MIGOTA
VISION DIRECTION PRODUCTION
I hate talking about myself.
DP's are an interesting breed, we try and make ourselves look as cool as possible, because you clearly have to be cool and mysterious to make fantastic images. I’ll admit I still try to be like that, my wife and daughters constantly remind me that I’m not there yet.
The pictures below feature me in a beer cooler, stuck in the mud, and questioning my Director’s choices. The reason I’ve chosen these as my defining pictures in an “about” section that 10 people will read is simple, when I’m your Director of Photography this is what you’ll get. I’m a goof, I’m energetic, I'm easy to work with and I truly believe that I’m the funniest person in the fucking world (no proof). I'll do my best with what I'm given, whether I’m a one-man band or I’m running a full crew, I have tons of experience with both. I strive to shoot what makes sense to the story and to the edit, all while creating the prettiest picture possible. I’ve worked with all the cameras and lenses out there and in another life I’d be a Director. If you’re looking for a super technical guy that geeks out over dynamic range and flange distances, then probably keep looking, but if you need a DP that’s down to hang out the side of a minivan with a gimbal rig or ruin his new boots for a shot, then holy shit look no further.
I'm currently the Director of Photography at COLOR, that’s where I do my Corporate and Commercial work. If you’re looking for someone to shoot your next Short, Feature or Music Video, or need an excuse to grab a beer on a Tuesday, then please feel free to contact me.
