He has a few things in the box with him, including a cell phone that he uses to communicate with the outside world and a Zippo-style lighter.<\/p>\n<p>Grau had to be incredibly creative with the shots and lighting throughout the production. He and the director, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0181579\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rodrigo Cortes<\/a>, really wanted to vary the scenes as much as possible (there are only so many ways to shoot coffin scenes). The result was very interesting, stylized shots that weren&#8217;t to artsy.<\/p>\n<p>Reynolds was really good in the film and I definately found myself sympathizing with his plight. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. Give it a watch when you can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier today I listened to the American Cinematographer Podcast with Eduard Grau, the Director of Photography for the movie Buried.
