We only allow ourselves 12 citations in each field but with cinematography that ALWAYS feels like too few. If we hadn't been so critical of various awards bodies for not sticking with a number (or continuing to expand) we would have extended it to 10 long ago. In addition to the twelve finalists cited above, it's worth noting that we are very excited about the up and coming careers of the following emerging talents in particular: Matthew Chuang (Of An Age), Eric Yue (A Thousand and One), Matthew Pothier (Mutt), and Victor Sequin (Blue Jean).
