Gold Derby experts, editors and users currently have Sher predicted to earn his first Oscar nom, placing at no.

This kind of striking camerawork will likely be noticed by the cinematographers’ branch, and their lack of bias against films set in the world of superheroes could be enough to get “Joker” that nomination in Best Cinematography. SEE 2020 Makeup Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards nominations: ‘Bombshell,’ ‘Rocketman,’ ‘Joker’ lead Sher captured all of this in great detail thanks to large format cameras, the kind used in last year’s Best Cinematography winner, “Roma.” Such cameras give the audience a more intimate feeling with the foreground subject, with sharper imagery and a wider view of what surrounds them. The streets are grimy, the buildings are dilapidated and even the interiors have a sickly fluorescent green appearance. With the film drawing inspiration from Martin Scorsese‘s gritty New York-set dramas “Taxi Driver” and “The King of Comedy,” there is no superhero sheen to be found. In “Joker,” Sher utilizes closeups to lure viewers into the mind of the damaged Arthur Fleck ( Joaquin Phoenix), tracking his transformation into the iconic villain by highlighting his isolation. Members of the Academy’s cinematographers’ branch have clearly shown themselves to be open-minded about strong camera work in the past regardless of subject matter, and even those who weren’t a fan of “Joker” on the whole took special note of Lawrence Sher‘s cinematography.
