释义 |
Popularly known as "Bob J," Johnson was educated at the National Film and Television Institute (NAFTI). In addition to creating films within the Ghanain movie industry, he worked in the camera department on international productions in the United States and the United Kingdom.[2] Johnson was the former President of the Cinematographers Guild of Ghana (CGG).[3] Death and legacyJohnson was an experienced professional motorbiker. However, while training soldiers to ride motorbikes in Aburi, Johnson died on 12 December 2010.[4] Speaking after his death, Shirley Frimpong-Manso, who directed five of Johnson's films, noted that "Bob J" had left a lasting influence on the Ghanaian film industry. She also said: “Bob was meticulous, professional, creative, a strong pillar of reliability and above all a big brother and this can be attested by all those who had the privilege to work with him. He was full of life and Great Spirit on and off set; it will never be the same without him.”[2] The respect for Johnson within the film industry, both by on-screen performers and behind-the-scenes personnel, was such that some film production companies halted production purposely for Johnson's funeral. Some actors deserted production sets which did not stop filming to attend the funeral.[1] Posthumous awardsAt the maiden edition of the Ghana Movie Awards, Johnson was posthumously awarded the Best Cinematography Award for his 2009 film A Sting in a Tale.[1] His film Check Mate also received a posthumous nomination for Best Cinematography at the Ghana Movie Awards.[2] Additionally, his film The Good Old Days: The Love of AA received a posthumous nomination for Best Cinematography at the African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA).[2] In 2012, the Ghana Academy of Film and Television Arts (GAFTA) instituted the Robert Johnson Silhouette Award for Best Cinematography at the National Film and Television Institute Students Film Festival. The award has been given out twice, in 2012 and 2014. Filmography
