Veteran cinematographer Jonathan Rossiter ACS has done something unusual, getting named Australian Cinematographer of the Year for his work on a short film, and a stop-motion film at that.
Rossiter won the award for the animated short film Sleight of Hand, directed by Anifex founder Michael Cusack. Rossiter has been working with Anifex for the past 28 years. Rossiter and Sleight of Hand also took the Golden Tripod in the Experimental & Specialised category.
