Brothers in Arms
cast & crew
Marisol Vega
Director of Photography
Marisol shoots on anamorphic glass and natural light wherever she can get away with it. She spent six years as a camera operator on documentary crews in Oaxaca and Los Angeles before moving into narrative work.
Aaron Whitfield
Editor
Aaron cuts for rhythm before he cuts for story, a habit he picked up editing music videos. He has assembled three features and more short films than he has kept track of.
Dara Taylor
Composer
Dara scores for orchestra and modular synth in roughly equal measure. Her work on this film leans on low strings and a single detuned piano.
Priya Raghunathan
Production Designer
Priya builds rooms that look lived in rather than decorated. She trained as an architect and still draws every set by hand before anything gets built.
Nora Kessler
Costume Designer
Nora dresses characters by what they can afford, not by what looks good on camera, and argues that the two are the same thing more often than people think.
Bennett Cole
Casting Director
Bennett runs open calls in every city he works in. Two of the supporting roles in this film came out of a Tuesday afternoon session with no appointments.
Yusuf Adeyemi
First Assistant Director
Yusuf has never lost a shooting day to weather, a claim he makes loudly and backs up with a laminated contingency schedule.
Colleen Duffy
Gaffer
Colleen came up rigging concert lighting and brought the habit of building for the widest possible angle, which is why this film could shoot 360 degrees in three of its locations.
Hector Salas
Sound Mixer
Hector records wild lines the moment a scene wraps, while the room and the actor still sound like the take. Nearly all of the dialogue here is production sound.
Wendy Okafor
Stunt Coordinator
Wendy choreographs fights that fit the people having them. Nobody in this film throws a punch like someone who has been trained to.
