Cinematographer Magdalena Gorka recently became the second woman in the last week to file a sexual harassment lawsuit against Casey Affleck, joining producer Amanda White who was also on Affleck’s most recent production, I’m Still Here: The Lost Year of Joaquin Phoenix. (You can read about Magdalena’s lawsuit HERE and Amanda White’s HERE.)

Magdalena is a well-respected cinematographer whose resume includes work on feature films Glina, Johnnie Walker, K-Ville and Dyplom as well as commercials for Wal-Mart, Converse, Max Azaria, Gift Arrow, Community Workshop and Corvette. She’s also handled the cinematography for a number of music videos – I will include some of those from YouTube at the bottom of this post.

In addition to being behind the camera, Magdalena has also spent a little time in front of the camera – Saam Gabbay’s camera to be exact. The photographer/blogger/podcaster created a video titled “A Very Sad Day” featuring Magdalena, compiled from 650 photographs. Here is how Gabbay described the “photofilm:”

A photofilm of Polish cinematographer Magdalena Gorka is posted in podcasts. She had just had a terrible day. We decided we should document it. Made with 650 photographs. Music is Tabula Rasa by Arvo Pärt.

You can download the video from SaamGabbay.com in iPod and HD formats.

As I mentioned before, Magdalena has worked on a number of music video projects and I thought I might add the ones I was able to find on YouTube:

Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons – “Born Again:”

Lissy Trullie – “Ready For The Floor:”

The Wildbirds – “421 (Everybody Loves You):”
