Watchmen

Film Production alum, Gregory Middleton, Emmy – WIN for “Watchmen”.

Best known for his work on “Game of Thrones” and a two-time Emmy nominee, Middleton shot four episodes out of the series’ nine.

The three characters are in a decrepit room of a cabin, overgrown with vegetation that has crept indoors. Light is filtering through the spaces in between the wood and through the window offering a very misty quality to the photo. A youngish man with short hair is seating on the left of a vintage phonograph, a woman is standing up beside it with her hands on the desk where it is placed, and another man is seated beside her and looking at an album cover which is stacked on other album covers on a messy desk. They appear to be listening.
