‘It all starts with the script, and I get a sense for the style through that. And then the initial conversations with the director to gauge which direction they want to take it. Most directors usually have a strong idea of what they want the film to look like — they reference other images and films, and Nicolas was absolutely prepared. He handed over a whole bunch of French new-wave films with these really interesting colour palettes.’ Beth Mickle
