Tony Miller Invests In Cooke S4 Lenses Through Azule Finance

A multi award winning cinematographer has invested in £80k worth of Cooke S4 Lenses for work with Arri ALEXA.
Bafta and Emmy nominated cinematographer, Tony Miller has announced his investment in a set of highly sought after Cooke S4 Lenses to enhance his work with the Arri ALEXA. Signing the £80K finance deal with Azule Finance at BVE 2012, Tony has increased his set of cutting-edge tools to further support his level of craftsmanship, which over the years has earned him a reputation as one of the UK’s finest cinematographers.
Recently investing in an Arri ALEXA camera, also financed by Azule, Tony has worked on some of the UK’s best known productions, including Small Island, Public Enemies and Without You, and possesses a portfolio spanning documentaries, commercials and drama. To aid Tony’s work, creating shots of deep contrast and tone, he has now invested in the set of Cooke S4 Lenses again working with Azule Finance to continue to build on his impressive skill set.
Tony Miller, Cinematographer, explained: "Having recently invested in an Arri ALEXA camera through Azule, this set of S4 lenses is the icing on the cake. I’m passionate about the work I do and being able to access this equipment means I can continue to fuel my desire for great camera work. I’ve been lucky enough to work on some fantastic productions over the years and this set of S4s will give my upcoming projects a real edge."
Peter Savage, Managing Director at Azule Finance commented: "It’s an extremely competitive job market for freelance cameramen, even for those with Tony’s level of experience and credentials. It’s crucial cinematographers and cameramen continue to keep up to date with the latest technology and build on their expertise to meet the demands of today’s high end productions. At Azule, our unique understanding of this sector means that unlike high street lenders we instantly identify the long term business value in these complex investments, and so we are able to offer quick competitive finance to cinematographers like Tony, allowing them to take advantage of the superb kit available today."
