What is a DPP?

DPP stands for Director of Photography, also known as a cinematographer, who is responsible for the visual look and feel of a film or video production. They work closely with the director to achieve the desired aesthetic by overseeing camera work, lighting, and shot composition. DPPs play a crucial role in storytelling by translating the script and director's vision into visual imagery. Their work involves selecting cameras, lenses, and lighting equipment, as well as managing the camera crew during production.
