Cornelius O'Donoghue

“Neil is a fantastic Dp. His cinematography is creative yet thoughtful and purpose driven. A couple of the reasons I love working with Neil as his gaffer. His cool, calm demeanor can really help balance the chaos of a busy set and he is one of the most prepared DP‘s I’ve ever worked with, I learn something new every time out with him. I would highly recommend Neil to any production, you will not be disappointed”

“Cornelius is unmatched when it comes to the magical combination of creativity and technical prowess he brings to every project. I’ve had the pleasure of working with him for years as his 1st AC, and I’ve had a firsthand look at just how much thought, intention, and care he puts into every single shot. His attention to detail—from lighting and composition to translating the story and concept of each project into a cohesive visual language—is something I’ve rarely witnessed in another DP. Every creative decision feels deliberate, and he has an incredible ability to make the vision of a project come to life. Just as importantly, Neil is an exceptional communicator. He knows how to work with and communicate effectively across every department, bringing everyone together to ensure that every aspect of a shoot feels cohesive and intentional. His work speaks for itself, but what stands out just as much is the level of respect and admiration he has earned from everyone fortunate enough to work with him. I can’t recommend Neil highly enough.”

“Neil is an image-making machine at the highest level. Whether it’s stills or motion, Neil can handle any level production you throw at him with ease. He’s a perfectionist and that allows directors to focus on other areas. Highly recommend!”

He is a fantastic collaborator, and I always look forward to having him on set!”
