Yuri Neyman

"[2] Being involved in Mayakovsky Laughs and a few other film projects considered then by the Soviet Government as being "ideologically dangerous," Yuri Neyman has been labeled as "anti-social realist" in camera work and was forced to emigrate as a political refugee from the USSR to the USA in 1978.

"Rarely, if ever has Manhattan been viewed so intensely", "A spectacular work of moving art", "The most beautiful science-fiction movie ever made".

[7] Besides compiling an array of narrative film, documentary and commercial credits, Neyman invented technologies designed to help cinematographers control the quality of images.

[8] He founded company Gamma & Density Co. which provides cinematographers with patented telecine control charts extensively used by DPs around the world.

As a technological innovator, he also developed and patented the 3cP system, which allows a director of photography and DIT to communicate on-set color grading decisions directly to the colorist, thereby avoiding creative miscommunication and costly mistakes.
