Haas worked with a variety of eminent directors—from Vittorio de Sica to John Huston, Gene Kelly, and Michael Cimino—and depicted cinema genres from suspense (\u003cem\u003eThe Third Man\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Train\u003c\/em\u003e) to the Western (\u003cem\u003eThe Oregon Trail\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eLittle Big Man\u003c\/em\u003e), and from comedy (\u003cem\u003eMiracle in Milan\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eLove and Death\u003c\/em\u003e) to musicals (\u003cem\u003eWest Side Story\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHello Dolly!\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaas inscribed a temporal, filmic dimension into his stills which, viewed in a sequence, generate movement and narrative. So accomplished was his mastery of colour, light, and motion that Haas was frequently asked to photograph large group actions—from the battle scenes of \u003cem\u003eThe Charge of the Light Brigade\u003c\/em\u003e and the dances of \u003cem\u003eWest Side Story\u003c\/em\u003e, to the ski slopes of \u003cem\u003eDownhill Racer\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOn Set\u003c\/em\u003e elucidates a novel perspective on the sets and stars Haas photographed, and reveals a little-known but crucial dimension of his oeuvre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460796760300,"sku":"9783869305875","price":115.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9783869305875-ernst-haas-on-set.jpg?v=1774952365","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/ernst-haas-on-set-by-john-p-jacob-9783869305875","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
