The Wheel of Time spun big numbers for Amazon Prime.
Coming off of the success of the first season, TV Fanatic got to sit down with Cinematographer David Moxness to discuss how the filming process unfolded.
Check out the interview below!
Were you a fan of the books before you started working on the show?
I had heard of the books but to be quite honest I had never read them prior to being involved.
When things were initially starting to come my way for consideration, I was very fortunate that my wife and I were doing a road trip across the country so I downloaded the audiobooks of the series and listened to them the whole way through the trip.
It was fantastic, and it really intrigued me and got me very interested. That was my first full start into the series of books.

The top cinematographers working on television reflect projects that truly embody why television is believed to be our best creative medium. Their projects touch the genres of fantasy, social dramas, superhero stories and family dramas. In a recent discussion, it was fascinating to hear which films influenced them into wanting to become cinematographers and what parts of the job they enjoy the most. Gold Derby recently had this discussion with Michael Fimognari (“Midnight Mass”), Antonio Calvache (“Queen Sugar”), Andrij Parekh (“Scenes from a Marriage”), Boris Mojsovski (“Titans”) and David Moxness (“The Wheel of Time”) during our recent “Meet the Experts” panel.

Filming in Slovenia presented several challenges for “The Wheel of Time” cinematographer, David Moxness, including the task of just getting to the shooting locations. “They loaded the trucks and they drove as close as they could get and then it was loaded into smaller pickup trucks and then it was into four-wheel ATVs and then we picked it up and carried it in the rest of the way,” Moxness tells Gold Derby in our Meet the Experts: TV Cinematography panel (watch the exclusive video interview above). Even with the difficulties that the crew was presented, Moxness could not argue with the beauty of the location. “The amazing thing was those challenges were completely outweighed by the fact that was such a beautiful place to shoot and amazing vistas that it was just like, wow, that’s what it’s all about.”

Fringe Review, Season 4, Episode 17: “Everything In Its Right Place”
Written by David Fury and J. R. Orci and Matt Pitts
Directed by David Moxness
Airs Fridays at 9pm (Et) on Fox
This week, on Fringe: Lincoln spends some quality time with himself, Foeyles is still a baddie, and shapeshifters are people too
After last week’s disappointing episode, Fringe is back in fine form this week, abandoning the wacky and more extreme elements in favor of a straightforward character study of the often overlooked Lincoln Lee. Granted, on Fringe “straightforward” is a trip to the Other Universe and a homeless shapeshifting vigilante, but the majority of the episode is spent with Agent Lee getting to know Fauxlivia and Linclone and evaluating himself and how he’s come to this point in his life.
If there’s a disappointing element to this episode, it’s how much it, and by extension Lincoln,...

Fans of '50s sci-fi may want to check out "Alien Trespass," which beautifully captures the look of the genre through cinematographer David Moxness' eye-popping re-creation of super-saturated Technicolor.
Sadly, laughs are sparse in this labor of love, a self-conscious spoof by longtime "X-Files" producer R.W. Goodwin -- most of them come in the faux-newsreel prologue, which claims the feature was shot in 1959 and shelved.
In what amounts to a mash-up of "It Came From Outer Space" and "The Day the Earth Stood Still," Eric McCormack plays a tweedy,...

Alien Trespass is a somewhat misleading title, in that it suggests a type of transgression when the film itself is, for want of a better word, as polite as a movie can be. It means to be a homage to B-monster flicks of the ’50s, a time when low-budget genre fare was far kinder and gentler than it is today. And in that it succeeds—but that’s all it succeeds at.
There’s no spin here, no suggestion of any kind of point of view about science fiction or horror cinema, no edge, no ambition to do anything but replicate the sort of cheap and simple creature features that played drive-ins back in the day. But to what end? It’s pleasant enough to watch an professionally made, but it’s certainly not scary and the situations and characters aren’t exaggerated or clever enough to be truly funny,...
