Morgan Schmidt Director of Photography
In his six years as a DP, Morgan has shot three feature films, a
dozen shorts, and a handful of music videos and commercials in 35mm,
Super-16 and HD. Afflicted with DP-ADD, Morgan loves the unique
beauty of widely variant projects, which have ranged from shooting
organic vegetables reenacting Star Wars (Store Wars, seen by 20
million), to exploring the extreme-macro world of ants, a recent
feature thriller (The Confessional) about an insane priest, and now
to the ultimate challenge: making a silver polkadot breakaway thong
sparkle 'just so'. Early in his career, Morgan recombined a Harvard
biology degree with fine art training to work as a managing media
producer for major science museum installations.
