Clay Enos is a still
movie photographer that has taken portraits of actors and documented the
filming process on several different movies.
Most of the movies that Enos has been a part of were
films by director and producer Zack Snyder. The movies that Enos has taken
photography for include “Watchmen,” “Sucker Punch,” “Man of Steel,” “300: Rise
of an Empire,” and “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” currently in production
and scheduled for release on March 25, 2016.
“The set of ‘Watchmen’ was certainly exciting because it
was my first movie, and the faces and characters of that movie were so rich
with texture and time, because the movie takes place over five decades,” Enos
said. “That was the first time I had taken my strict studio approach and stuff
of New York and put it in the context of the fictionalized world of ‘Watchmen’
to great effect because a nice book came out of it.”
The uses of Enos’ pictures include being used for press
release articles on movies, promotional advertising with various products and
ads, and forming making-of books, though a lot of the images used for advertising
are photo shopped by other people.
“It’s so neat to see how they're taking the pictures and
taking it to different places and using different effects,” Enos said. “Movie making
is a collective endeavor, advertising and marketing around a movie is so
outside of what my responsibilities are, I’m glad to have played a part.”
Enos will also be working on the set of upcoming movie “Suicide
Squad,” which is scheduled to begin filming in Toronto this coming April. Part
of the new DC Comics shared film universe, it will be released by Warner
Brothers Pictures on August 5, 2016, and will star Will Smith, Tom Hardy, and
Jared Leto.
