KEANU REEVES Side by Side Q & A @ Berlin Film Festival 2012

In February I went to the 62nd Berlinale film festival in Berlin to see the premiere of SIDE BY SIDE, a fascinating documentary by Chris Kennealy (director) and Keanu Reeves (producer) about the impact of digital filmmaking on traditional photochemical cinema. This event took place on 15/02/2012 and clips have been available on YouTube for months. This is my personal material, shot on Sony HX9 point-and-shoot digicam. I also managed to sneak my way into the second event on 16/02 when Keanu discussed interview techniques with director Marc Cousins and a bunch of film students. Fascinating stuff, I have to admit. Why have I never thought about studying film? You can see the full Side by Side trailer here but I suggest you go and see the whole documentary. If you love cinema and you ever wondered what a cinematographer does, this is definitely something you should watch.
