S equels, prequels, reboots and remakes are all the rage at the moment, but few have generated the excitement of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice . This long- awaited follow-up to Tim Burton’s classic screwball comedy – first released 36 years ago – brings the debauched ‘bio-exorcist’ back to stir up spooky chaos alongside much of the original cast, plus new faces including Jenny Ortega. For DOP Haris Zambarloukos, joining the production was a dream come true. In this issue, he shares insights on collaborating with Tim Burton, crafting imaginative practical effects and evolving the visual language of the original film (page 6). We take a closer look at Slow Horses too, with DOP Danny Cohen sharing how he gave the genre a grimier slant than your typical spy thriller. Read all about it on page 42. There’s also a look at how ad agencies are leveraging the creative power of virtual production (page 14), while this month’s In Short focus Hestia demonstrates the exciting potential of Sony’s VP toolkit (page 34). Elsewhere, DOP Carolina Costa invites us into the production of Fancy Dance during a sweltering summer in Oklahoma; a panel of experts discuss the latest advancements in lens technology; we explore some nifty new filters; and the legendary Ben Burtt – Oscar winner, voice of R2-D2 and the man responsible for Darth Vader’s heavy breathing, among many other achievements – tells us about his career in sound design. Enjoy the issue, and see you next month!
