Sports Illustrated Photographer Bill Frakes was recently interviewed by the "British Journal of Photography" for their Features column online. "I got a good grounding in cinematography by shooting small projects like music videos," comments Frakes.
An easy fit, Frakes' photojournalism background gives him an eye to translate stills into videos. "Video will never replace the still image," Frakes says. "The still image is a beautiful thing and does something that the eye cannot do -- study a split second in time.
