Apocalypse Now Behind the Scenes: The Slate Photo Print

A hand holds up the camera slate against the slatted light of a window blind. Chalked on its face: Apocalypse Now, 8-2-76, Coppola Cinema Seven, Director Francis Ford Coppola, Cameraman Vittorio Storaro. Scene 3B, Camera A, Roll 401. Before a single frame of the film existed, there was this board, and the cinematographer photographed it himself.

This is one of Vittorio Storaro's own photographs from the set of Apocalypse Now, the film that earned him his first Academy Award. It carries his signature in the lower corner, as it appears on the original. Printed to order on fine art paper, rolled or framed.
