The Cinematography Podcast Episode 76: Suzie Lavelle Irish
cinematographer Suzie Lavelle loves to be very hands on and
involved in visual storytelling. From a young age, Suzie had an
interest in photography, went to art school and was accepted into
the renowned National Film and Television School in London. She
began working on short films and features, one of which, The Other
Side of Sleep, was shown at the Cannes Film Festival. Shortly
after, Suzie landed her first television job shooting an episode of
Dr. Who Season 7, an amazing opportunity that led to a long career
on large scale shows such as Vikings, His Dark Materials, A
Discovery of Witches, and Sherlock. Sherlock: The Abominable Bride
is a single 90-minute long episode which takes place during the
Victorian era and Suzie was Emmy nominated for Best Cinematography.
Suzie was excited to work with director and fellow countryman Lenny
Abrahamson on the new Hulu series Normal People. Normal People is
about the often rocky, romantic relationship between Marianne
(Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell (Paul Mescal) who grew up in the
same small town in Ireland. Abrahamson and Suzie worked together to
create very beautiful, close up and intimate scenes between the
actors, which required a small footprint, few lights and the use of
a single handheld camera. Normal People is currently streaming on
Hulu. Find Suzie Lavelle: http://www.suzielavelle.com/ Instagram:
