Maddox, who has worked on Fox’s Empire series as well as the FX series Snowfall and Netflix’ s Huge In France (<a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1368219/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">see all of his credits on IMDB</a>), has been taking the time away from production to study cinema from around the world and to exchange ideas with small groups of friends and colleagues online.</p> <p>This is the first time we’ve had an opportunity to feature an interview with a leading Hollywood DP on the podcast. It’s an opportunity to get a glimpse into that world during this strange and challenging time. Jeff Berlin connected with Maddox remotely for this interview.</p> <p>You can see more about Maddox at <a href="https://sonycine.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SonyCine.com</a>.
