:Roger Deakins

Deakins was born in Torquay in the English county of Devon.{{cite web |url=https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2017/05/09/master-light/ |title=Master of Light |website=The Paris Review |first=Noah |last=Gallagher Shannon |date=9 May 2017 |access-date=18 November 2019}} His father ran a construction company, while his mother was an actress and amateur painter.{{cite web |url=https://theasc.com/ac_magazine/January2011/RogerDeakinsASCBSC/page1.html |title=A League of His Own |website=American Cinematographer |first=Patricia |last=Thomson |date=January 2011 |access-date=18 November 2019}} Deakins attended Torquay Boys' Grammar School.{{cite web |url=https://www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/devon-man-roger-deakins-wins-1231363 |title=Devon man Roger Deakins wins at BAFTAs - but will he finally get his Oscar? |website=Devon Live |first=Richard |last=Booth |date=9 May 2017 |access-date=18 November 2019}} He took up painting from a young age, and subsequently enrolled in the Bath Academy of Art in Bath, Somerset, where he studied graphic design. While studying in Bath, Deakins developed a passion for photography; he cited the photographer Roger Mayne, a guest lecturer at the academy, as a major source of inspiration.{{cite web |url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/oct/08/sicario-roger-deakins-oscar-coen-brothers-hollywood |title=Roger Deakins: 'the opposite of a Hollywood person' ... with 12 Oscar nominations to his name |website=The Guardian |first=Henry |last=Barnes |date=8 October 2015 |access-date=18 November 2019}}

After college, Deakins applied to the newly opened National Film School, but was denied admission as his photography was considered not "filmic" enough. He spent the following year wandering the countryside, photographing rural life in North Devon, before finally being admitted to the National Film School in 1972. Director Michael Radford was one of Deakins's schoolmates.

After graduating, Deakins found work as a cameraman, assisting in the production of projects for about seven years. An early project of his involved filming a nine-month trip on a yacht as an entrant in the Whitbread Round the World Race, titled Around the World with Ridgeway.{{cite web |url=https://www.indiewire.com/2016/02/interview-roger-deakins-talks-sicario-partnership-with-denis-villeneuve-blade-runner-2-digital-vs-film-more-272584/ |title=Interview: Roger Deakins Talks 'Sicario,' Partnership With Denis Villeneuve, 'Blade Runner 2,' Digital Vs.

His first, Zimbabwe, was a clandestine documentation of the Rhodesian Bush War, while his second, Eritrea – Behind Enemy Lines, depicted the Eritrean War of Independence.{{Cite book|last=Kiste |first=John |title=Devonshire's Own |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DNcTDQAAQBAJ&q=roger+deakins+Eritrea+%E2%80%93+Behind+Enemy+Lines&pg=PT99 |date=2007 |publisher=The History Press |isbn=9780752493664 |access-date=18 November 2019 }} He also shot anthropological documentaries in India and Sudan.

During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Deakins was involved in a number of music-related projects, including Blue Suede Shoes, a music documentary about the British rockabilly scene, the concert film Van Morrison in Ireland, and the Ray Davies musical film Return to Waterloo. He also made short music videos for Herbie Hancock, Eric Clapton, Marvin Gaye, Tracey Ullman, Madness, Level 42 and Meat Loaf.

Deakins's first dramatic project was a miniseries titled Wolcott, about a black detective working in the East End of London. The camerawork of the miniseries impressed his former schoolmate and frequent collaborator Michael Radford, who enlisted Deakins for their first dramatic feature, the 1983 film Another Time, Another Place.{{Cite book|last=Rogers |first=Pauline B. |title=Contemporary Cinematographers on Their Art |url=https://archive.org/details/contemporarycine00roge |url-access=registration |page=[https://archive.org/details/contemporarycine00roge/page/73 73] |quote=roger deakins Wolcott. |date=1998 |publisher=CRC Press |isbn=9781136045783 |access-date=18 November 2019}} The film screened at the Cannes Film Festival and was well-received; subsequently, Deakins and Radford teamed up again on Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984), based upon George Orwell's novel of the same name. The film was praised for its bold, unusual palette, which Deakins achieved through a process known as bleach bypass, where the silver is retained in the print, creating a washed-out look that reflected Orwell's bleak vision. Deakins was the first Western cinematographer to use the technique, which has since become highly influential and can be seen in films such as Seven (1995) and Saving Private Ryan (1998). Throughout the 1980s, Deakins continued working in Britain, serving as cinematographer for films including Defence of the Realm (1986), Sid and Nancy (1986), White Mischief (1987; his third feature film with Radford), Stormy Monday (1988) and Pascali's Island (1988).

In 1991, Deakins began his long-term collaboration with the Coen brothers, starting with the film Barton Fink. The Coens had been impressed with Deakins's work, and reached out to him after their previous collaborator Barry Sonnenfeld left to pursue a career in directing. The film won the Coens' the Festival de Cannes 1991 Palme d'Or and Best Director awards (and John Turturro the award for Best Actor),{{cite web| author = Festival de Cannes Personnel | url=http://www.festival-cannes.com/en/archives/1991/awardCompetition.html |title=Festival archives—Awards—Competition—Awards 1991 |date=1991 |work=Festival-Cannes.com |access-date=9 December 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130102141135/http://www.festival-cannes.com/en/archives/1991/awardCompetition.html |archive-date=2 January 2013| location = Paris, FR | publisher = Festival de Cannes}} and earned Deakins best cinematography awards from New York, Chicago and Los Angeles film critics circles.{{citation needed|date = February 2020}} In 1994, the year Deakins was admitted to the American Society of Cinematographers, he served as cinematographer for The Shawshank Redemption, which earned him his first Academy Award nomination for Best Cinematography, and his first American Society of Cinematographers Award. He received two further Academy Award nominations in that decade, for Fargo (1996) and Kundun (1997).

For the Coen brothers film O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000), Deakins spent some two months fine-tuning the look, turning the lush green Mississippi landscape into a burnt, autumnal yellow and desaturating the overall image. This feat made O Brother the first ever feature film to be digitally color-corrected in its entirety,{{cite journal| last=Robertson| first=Barbara| title=CGSociety – The Colorists| journal=The Colorists| date=1 May 2006| url=http://features.cgsociety.org/story_custom.php?story_id=3549| access-date=24 October 2007| page=3| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120122201815/http://www.cgsociety.org/index.php/CGSFeatures/CGSFeatureSpecial/the_colorists| archive-date=22 January 2012| url-status=dead}} and earned Deakins his fourth Academy Award nomination.{{cite web |author1=Kiang, Jessica |author2=Lyttelton, Oliver |author3=Taylor, Drew | url=https://www.indiewire.com/2015/09/the-essentials-the-15-best-shot-roger-deakins-films-259776/ |title=The Essentials: The 15 Best-Shot Roger Deakins Films |website=IndieWire |date=17 September 2015 |access-date=28 February 2020}} The following year, for his work in the Coen brothers' The Man Who Wasn't There (2001), Deakins received his fifth Oscar nomination{{cite web |author = Dowell, Pat | url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=3874296 |title='The Man Who Wasn't There' |work=NPR |date=27 August 2004 |access-date=28 February 2020}} and won his first BAFTA Award for Best Cinematography.{{cite news |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/the-unsung-heroes-of-bafta-782185.html |title=The unsung heroes of Bafta |first=Elisa |last=Bray |website=The Independent |date=15 February 2008 |access-date=18 November 2019}}

In 2008, Deakins received dual Oscar nominations—his sixth and seventh—for The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) and No Country for Old Men (2007). He was the first cinematographer to achieve such a feat since Robert Surtees, who was nominated for The Last Picture Show and Summer of '42 in 1972.{{cite web |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/people-oscars-deakins-dc-idUSN2356285920080125 |title=Rare double feature for cinematographer Deakins |first=Carolyn |last=Giardina |website=Reuters |date=24 January 2008 |access-date=18 November 2019}} Deakins served as director of photography for Stephen Daldry's The Reader (2008) but left mid-production due to delays and previous commitments, and was replaced by Chris Menges.

Deakins has kept a boat since beginning such activities with his father as a child—with him, first a sailboat, then a motorboat—and he currently keeps one in Torquay, his hometown, to which he often goes (and from which he fishes) when in Britain.

When in Devon he enjoys running, and has maintained a passion for still photography. In 2021, Deakins released a book of his black-and-white still photographs, Byways.{{cite web |title=Byways - a book of still photography from Roger Deakins |url=https://www.rogerdeakins.com/byways/ |access-date=22 August 2021}}

Deakins is among the most respected and sought-after cinematographers in the film business.
