Work
Mussil sees the camera not only as a technical, but rather as a psychological instrument. As a result, the dialogue between the protagonist and the camera, processes and choreography in one shot are just as important as the technical and artistic aspects, for example light, perspective , focal length, panning rhythm and image detail.
