A conversation with Christopher Probst, ASC

In this episode, I am talking with cinematographer Christopher Probst, ASC. His work on the pilot episode for David Fincher’s Mindhunter earned him an ASC Award nomination. His work includes some of the greatest music videos of the past decade. In addition to his cinematography career, Christopher is a co-author of the Cine Lens Manual and serves as the Chief Innovation Officer of Synapse, a virtual production stage in Los Angeles, California. In this conversation, he speaks about the illusion of social media, the importance of community, the state of the film industry, the fears with AI, not feeling satisfied and the mindset of “It Must Be Me” when not getting work.
