Welcome to this episode of Visual Intonation, with Aaron Tucker, an acclaimed director, cinematographer, and producer whose vision has shaped some of the most powerful narratives in media today. Hailing from the vibrant DMV area, Aaron has built a reputation for weaving human-centered storytelling with high-end branded content. Whether crafting visually stunning ads for global giants like Amazon, Capital One, and Google, or directing cinematic moments for prestigious brands such as Hanifa and NASA, Aaron brings a rare blend of artistry and precision to every project. In this episode, we dive deep into the journey of a director who thrives on collaboration. With a knack for working across disciplines, Aaron excels in the art of producing results-driven content, consistently delivering on time and within budget. From leading dynamic teams through complex production processes to guiding clients through the intricate world of media investments, Aaron has mastered the delicate balance between creative vision and strategic execution. As an in-house media and production director, he continues to elevate productions from start to finish, ensuring that every project not only meets but exceeds expectations. Aaron's path to the spotlight wasn't a straight line. A graduate of the University of Maryland with a degree in finance, he began his career at Deloitte. But the call of creativity was too loud to ignore. Armed with a camera, a relentless drive to learn, and a self-taught mastery of photography, Aaron traded in the comfort of a corporate job for the uncertainty of a film career. He didn't just make a leap – he made a choice: the fear of failure wasn't an option. “Not making the change would be failing to believe I can do the thing I enjoy for a living,” he says. And it's that belief, that courage to pursue his passion, that's led him to become one of the most sought-after cinematographers in the business today. From the pages of Vogue and The New York Times to features on Complex, Aaron Tucker has left a lasting imprint on both the commercial and artistic worlds. The accolades are impressive, but it's the raw, human element in his work that truly sets him apart. As a 2023 HBO Short Film Awards finalist, Aaron's dedication to storytelling goes beyond the lens, transforming each frame into an experience that connects deeply with audiences around the globe. We'll hear about the driving force behind his vision and the invaluable lessons learned working with world-class clients.

In this week's episode of Visual Intonation, we dive into the world of Christopher Emanuel Smith, a filmmaker whose journey from Florida to the bright lights of New York City is as compelling as the stories he tells. A former Floridian with a knack for avoiding "Florida Man" infamy, Christopher swapped gators for a camera and pursued an MFA from NYU Tisch. With a career that blends screenwriting, directing, and videography, he has earned his place in the industry, crafting visuals that captivate and stories that resonate. His current gig as a Senior Director at Condé Nast Entertainment has only sharpened his unique cinematic voice, a voice that has already captured the attention of major publications like Vanity Fair and GQ.  But Christopher isn't just a director; he's a storyteller at heart. His goal? To create coming-of-age narratives that seamlessly weave together comedy and drama, stories that capture the awkwardness, beauty, and struggle of growing up. From his work on music videos and documentaries to his upcoming episodic series, Christopher's ability to blend humor with heartfelt moments places him in a class of his own. The silent storytelling technique he mastered with a 16mm Bolex camera continues to inform his work today, ensuring that every frame he shoots is packed with meaning.  We also explore Christopher's ideal projects—shows like 'Atlanta' and 'Dave', which mix razor-sharp wit with emotional depth, and action-comedy films like 'Tropic Thunder', where humor and adventure collide. His blend of sharp social commentary and visual storytelling makes him a standout in an industry often overcrowded with cookie-cutter projects. Whether it's through the lens of a camera or the page of a script, Christopher remains steadfast in his mission to tell stories that matter, stories that go beyond the bizarre encounters of a life lived in Florida.  Don't miss this episode of Visual Intonation, where we talk about Christopher's experiences, creative processes, and his exciting future projects. We'll also discuss his latest short film, 'Male Pattern Boredness', which follows a self-sabotaging musician on a hilariously rocky path toward self-discovery. Tune in to hear how one filmmaker is pushing boundaries and creating headlines that don't involve any alligators. Christopher Emanuel Smith's Website: https://www.culturewax.com/Christopher Emanuel Smith's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/c.emanuelsmith/?hl=enChristopher Emanuel Smith's Coverfly: https://writers.coverfly.com/profile/writer-541ab3bff-195734Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

Join us for a timely conversation and, as always, Laura's commentary.“I think what we're going to see is an escalation of the potential for violence . . . Project 2025 is a great example of the sort of broader consensus among the conservative movement around what to do once they regained power . . .

In this conversation with Flanders, recorded just prior to Trump's inauguration, Premo describes how the film came to be and what he found, including the surprising diversity within the Right-wing groups he followed. How do political ideas turn to political violence? What is the path forward? Join us for a timely conversation and, as always, Laura's commentary.“I think what we're going to see is an escalation of the potential for violence . . . Project 2025 is a great example of the sort of broader consensus among the conservative movement around what to do once they regained power . . . People feel increasingly emboldened in a way that I think is somewhat similar to 2016, but there's a different sense of urgency.” - Michael PremoGuest:  Michael Premo: Journalist & Filmmaker; Director & Producer, Homegrown Watch the episode cut airing on PBS stations across the country at our YouTube channelSubscribe to episode notes via Patreon*Note: This interview took place on January 15th, 2025 prior to the inauguration.

We were incredibly saddened by the loss of 1st Assistant Director and producer, Adam Somner. You can hear his fantastic energy, enthusiasm and entertaining storytelling as a guest on The Cinematography Podcast. Here we have re-posted his 2021 episode in memorial and tribute to his blockbuster career. He will be greatly missed. The job of the assistant director is to work in concert with the director and the DP to get everything done on a movie set. As a 1st AD, Adam Somner is trusted by the industry's top directors to anticipate their needs, motivate the crew, figure out the schedule, and drive the entire production forward to finish each day on time. He finds the best way to keep everything moving smoothly on set is though humor, high energy and uniting everyone as a group, persuading people to do things on the schedule and timeline needed to complete the job. Adam's father, Basil Somner, worked for MGM Studios in England, and through him, Adam got a job as a runner/production assistant at age 17. He began working on movies in the late '80's, like Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Superman IV, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He worked under many assistant directors, observed how they took charge on set, and decided he was really interested in becoming an AD. Adam has worked on eight Ridley Scott films to date, as well as several of the late Tony Scott's films. He was first hired on a Ridley Scott film as a third assistant director on 1492: Conquest of Paradise and White Squall, then moved up to second assistant director on Gladiator, (with DP John Mathieson) where he learned how to manage a huge crew of extras and background action from the 1st AD, Terry Needham. On Black Hawk Down, Adam was promoted to first assistant director for the second unit. Black Hawk Down was shooting in Morocco, and the second unit was responsible for most of the helicopter sequences, with lots of moving parts and extras, involving real Black Hawk helicopters and real U.S. military soldiers. After Black Hawk Down, Adam got the call to begin working with Steven Spielberg on War of the Worlds, where he quickly learned to read Spielberg's mind and keep an eye on the details. He's worked with Spielberg on ten films now, including Munich, Lincoln, and Ready Player One. A 1st AD is responsible for coordinating most of the background action. Adam's ability to work on big sets with lots of action, extras and special effects led director Paul Thomas Anderson to hire him for There Will Be Blood, and Anderson has since become a personal friend. Adam finds Anderson's on-set approach to be very thoughtful and measured. Unlike the action-heavy films Adam has worked on, he knew it was important to keep the crew and background actors quiet and subdued on Anderson's films with heavy dialog, such as The Master and Phantom Thread. For The Wolf of Wall Street, Adam was thrilled to work with director Martin Scorsese. Scorsese and cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto had Adam sit in during their preproduction shotlisting process, so they were all thoroughly prepared. Scorsese loves shooting scenes with complex background action, and Adam delivered. He carefully rehearsed all the extras in different stages of panic as the brokers watched the stock market crash. For the famous in-flight orgy scene, Adam wasn't totally sure how he wanted to deal with not just one sex scene, which is hard enough, but several at once. So he decided to hire a choreographer to help rehearse and plan all the action, making sure each background player knew exactly what they were doing and taking care that everyone was comfortable with their role in front of the camera. Adam was excited to work with Alejandro González Iñárritu on some of Birdman, and as the 1st AD on one of the may units shooting The Revenant, where Iñárritu and the DP Emmanuel Lubezki “Chivo” wanted everything shot and rehearsed during magic hour. Rehearsals were incredibly important on both Birdman and The Revenant...
