Bob Gordon's lush, exuberant technique marks him as one of the world's most sought-after directors. His imagery is kinetic; thick textured skies flow into lambent water, marrying grand motifs with small wonders. Yet he shows a remarkably light touch with people and dialogue - they are never overwhelmed by the power of his camera. Bob caresses his subjects, the quiet lakes of the north for Ontario Tourism, the Australian outback for Visa's 'Kangaroo', two little girls for BC Hydro, with awesome, quiet power and gentle humanity. We look to Bob when we want to make the heart sing with wonder and beauty.

"My years working with the best people taught me to ignore the unnecessary and concentrate on the shots which deliver the strongest visual and emotional impact." Bob's international award-winning success with spots for Visa and Ontario Tourism is certainly evidence of his long apprenticeship in filmmaking. He has worked in production since he was 15 years old, and has learned his craft with top DPs like Freddie Young (Dr. Zhivago, Lawrence of Arabia) and Freddie Francis (Glory). His visuals are beautiful and panoramic, yet Bob shows a remarkably light touch with people and dialogue - they are never overwhelmed by the power of his camera.
