Egor PovolotskiyCINEMATOGRAPHER

American Cinematographer magazine, the official publication of the American Society of Cinematographers, recently spotlighted the meteoric rise of New York Film Academy MFA Cinematography grad Egor Povolotskiy in it’s Rising Stars of Cinematography piece. The article highlights how Povolotskiy’s pathway to success in Los Angeles was paved in large part through his NYFA connections.

Povolotskiy points to his NYFA instructor and mentor Mike Williamson, and later to fellow NYFA alum and line producer Mariietta Volynska, who hired the cinematographer for his first project post-graduation, based on his NYFA thesis, as influences.
