Bill Mitchell
Cinematographer Bill Mitchell is part of the International Cinematographers Guild, a Local 600 member. He started filming at the young age of 12 and won a student Academy Award in the Experimental category for his 35mm student film "Zebu". After finishing his BA in Communications at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, Calfornia, he worked as an IMAX projectionist, camera and post production assistant on feature films including the signature 70 mm film, "Baraka".
20 years ago he began to license his 35 mm footage for commercials, feature films, music video and other video projects and began his now extensive film and high definition stock footage library. Mitchell has lived the last 20 years in Los Angeles and Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Today, Bill is hired to film custom shots for commercials, feature films, and TV shows. His stock images have been seen in countless productions. He is considered an expert in the field of time-lapse, though his shooting style spans an array of techniques and he is highly adept at the multiple high end video formats and film and HD cameras. Bill is an excellent cinematographer, works really hard and provides high quality and abundant imagery to meet the high demands of broadcast productions.
