Jack Asher
Born 29 March 1916 Died April 1991 (1991-05 ) (aged 75 ) Occupation Cinematographer
Jack Asher B.S.C. (29 March 1916, London – 1991) was an English cinematographer . His brother Robert Asher was a film and TV director with whom he worked on several occasions.
He began his cinematic career as a camera operator , and made his first film as cinematographer or "lighting cameraman" on The Magic Bow
Asher is best remembered for his work on Hammer films, beginning with The Curse of Frankenstein gothic horrors , and the earliest colour version of the Frankenstein story. He was the director of photography on several of the colour Hammer horror films including Dracula The Revenge of Frankenstein The Hound of the Baskervilles The Mummy The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll The Brides of Dracula The Camp on Blood Island The Snorkel [1]
His style was characterized by a fantastical use of colours, such as non-realistic purples and greens.[2] Terence Fisher said of him, "Jack Asher had a very distinctive style of lighting, which was quite different from Arthur Grant 's...(Who) had a more realistic approach to the situation. Jack Asher's was almost theatrical lighting with little tricks, like color slides placed over the lights and so on."[3]
Asher's non-Hammer films included The Good Die Young Reach for the Sky
In 1964, he was nominated for a BAFTA for Best British Cinematography (Colour) for his work on The Scarlet Blade
