    <p><em>Welcome to The Queue — your daily distraction of curated video content sourced from across the web. Today, we’re watching a video essay that looks at what distinguishes the cinematography of Linus Sandgren.</em>

With credits like No Time To Die, La La Land, and First Man under his belt, director of photography Linus Sandgren has easily carved out a space for himself as one of the 21st century’s most notable cinematographers. Hailing from Sweden, the BAFTA and Academy Award-winning DoP has proved himself a reliable talent on big-budget projects, able to bob, weave, and adapt to all manner of genres and deliver striking images (many of which we’ve been happy to highlight over at One Perfect Shot).

The video essay below takes a look at two aspects of what distinguishes Sandgren’s work as a cinematographer. Namely: his creative philosophy and his preferred gear. As the essay explains, Sandgren is keen on adapting his style to meet the needs of both the story and the director’s style. So whether it be shooting Don’t Look Up like a conventional political thriller or ensuring that the scope and scale we’ve come to expect from the Bond franchise comes across in No Time To Die, a quick peek at Sandgren’s resume reveals that he’s quite the chameleon. But, as with most things cinematography, a visual aide is far better than the written word. So buckle up, and check out the video essay below for a look at what makes Linus Sandgren a name worth knowing.

Postscript: it would be criminal negligence on my part to fail to mention the existence of Disco Kung Fu, a short film Sandgren shot in 2002 that I am very fond of. Also look: Sandgren on Roger Deakins’ podcast! Hell yeah!
