David Tattersall

David Tattersall? The guy’s a total chameleon behind the camera. He’s bounced between genres like it’s nothing—one minute he’s shooting a massive sci-fi blockbuster, next he’s knee-deep in a quirky romance or an action-packed thriller. You’ve probably caught his work without realizing it—think Star Wars prequels (yeah, those ones), The Green Mile (tearjerker alert), and even a James Bond flick (Die Another Day, for the record). The dude’s been everywhere, literally—five continents, over 20 countries, you name it. He’s teamed up with legends like George Lucas and Frank Darabont, plus folks like Martin Campbell. Not one to stick to the old-school, he’s nailed both digital and film, whatever the project calls for. Streaming, indie, big studio—it’s all in his wheelhouse. His filmography’s kinda wild: Death Note (the Netflix one), Con Air, Tomb Raider II, Speed Racer, Journey 2, The Day the Earth Stood Still... the list goes on. TV? Oh, he’s in there too. He snagged an Emmy nod for The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and shot the pilot for The Walking Dead—so, basically, if you’re into epic visuals or moody atmospheres, he’s probably responsible. The guy studied at Goldsmiths and Britain’s National Film and Television School, snagged a BAFTA nom for a student short, and even had a film at Cannes. These days, he’s California-based, part of the Academy and the British Society of Cinematographers, still cranking out jaw-dropping work.
